Optimizing Ati

[sonic]

What is the best way to set up ati for quality without going too overboard, talking about settings like anti-aliasing, vs temporal or adaptive etc...
also catalyst ai off or on.

[DizZa]

My ATi driver settings for fsX are:

Anti-Aliasing 4x

Adaptive Anti-Aliasing OFF

High Quality 16x AA Quality Anisotropic filtering (Ingame texture filtering is set to TRILINEAR) <---Any lower gives me flickering

Texture preferance - Quality <---< Do not lower as that can severely blur textures.

MIP Detail level - Quality <---< Do not lower as that can severely blur textures.

Vsync - OFF

Support DXT textures - ON

Support bump mapping - ON

Alternate pixel centres - OFF <----<

Wow I dont think I have all that or maybe I just havent dug far enough in.lol

Assuming you have a processor, motherboard, memory and ATi video card that can handle it...

AA=4x
AF=16x,
Mip or Texture Quality = Maximum or highest quality
Catalyst AI to ADVANCED,
Wait for Vertical Refresh to #3 on the slider (Application Controlled)

Make sure under API Specific: Enable Geometry Instancing, Support DTX Texture, and Triple Buffering are checked, nothing else.

Under VPU recover, uncheck prepare error report but leave Enable VPU checked
