The clouds are weird:



The jagged lines on the plane:



Plus the AA doesn't seem to be working. Is there any setting in the Nvidia control panel or in the game that I need to adjust for better visuals?

I'm actually thinking of buying Flaming Cliffs, but only if I can get the game to render correctly.

And the problem with the jagged lines on the aeroplane is that you have shadows set to "Full". Set them to the next lowest setting (I think it is "All Active" or something like that). The self-shadowing on the planes doesn't work with the newer cards, I'm afraid!

I had a similar issue with the clouds when I reinstalled Lomac a while ago.

In your nvidia control panel, is the "Antialiasing - Mode" set to "enhance the application setting"? I'm not positive, but I believe that was causing the problem for me, and when I set it to "override any application setting" the clouds returned to normal.

To fix the clouds, make sure you're running with the overall preference set to "Quality". If you're using the Nvidia control panael, go to the part that lets you tweak performance for individual games. That part should have a tab for overall performance. Set that part to quality. That will fix the clouds.

I have this problem too i ma running it with a 8500 512 mb ram card and sometmes the coulds looks ok. but I could not set a heavy avercast because i got a CTD with a error message This happens if i set finnes to 10.

Also there is some times that it works !!!

So i reinstall the game compled (FC 1.12b) and the problems still there i think is a problem with drivers or the game runnig with a 8XXX series of Nvidia cards.

i have make a treak on the lockon page http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=589661#post589661

And i have make references to this post on that forum lets see if there is a solution.
