Need help with blur ground texture

Postby akka » Mon Feb 16, 2009 1:17 pm

I don't know whether my add on scenery and other stuff is getting too large for my system to handle, my ground texture becomes very blur and looks a patch of colors, got jazzed edges too even when anti-alias is set to on. display resolution is set 800 x 600 x 32 but using 1024 x 768 x32 has little improvements during flight though the ground texture looks much better at the runway. Well my entire addon scenery is close to 30G

My system is a Intel Core 2 at 1.83 GHz. 2M DDR2 Ram with Intel graphics accelerator with 256M Video Ram

Anybody got any idea what is causing that?

That looks like onboard graphics rather than a separate card.

The problem is caused by a lack of graphics processing combined with a processor that isn't quite up to the task.

Others will be able to give you a more detailed answer and better advice than I can about possible upgrades or tweaks to improve things for you.

Welcome to the joy and pain of FS.

You are probably right. Can't add a separate graphics board to my laptop though.
