Had a new PC show up (quad core, ATI 4870, Vista 32 bit, 4 gig of ram) so everything should look sweet. I've seen some screenshots and the game looks incredible.
But mine seems kinda blocky - like the textures aren't smooth. I've ramped everything up to max and I still get the same thing. Even in the beginning window when selecting your aircraft I the plane looks really jaggy which I thought was strange as anti-aliasing is on?
Is this normal or do I need to adjust something. All latest drivers are installed.
AA is only available in DX10 mode with the AA box checked in FSX settings... it sets a DX flag which should enable AA on hardware but it does not perform all the AA jobs the card AA does in DX9 mode... in example is skips triangle AA smoothing as I recall
and that is the same for AA checked in DX9 mode.. which is why I dont use AA checked in the sim... I use DX9 mode and the card with Nhancer and forget DX10
but what if its DX10.1? then there should be AA regardless right?
