Dopped the FPS about 20 and screwed up the text. :rolleyes: Last night thought I did some major testing of all graphic options and should post results for people on my FAQ site some time today. $\:\)$ _________________________ --Mach 4.0-- Allied Force Underground website! *F-14 Tomcats Forever*

Joe Veteran Registered: 04/05/02 Posts: 17733 Loc: Bridgewater, NJ	There is no such thing as 8xS antialiasing on an ATI card; it is a proprietary method of nVidia's. I am asking for someone else with a 6800GT to see if 8xS AA eliminates the Air-to-Air slowdown. If it does, this would mean that it would be possible to run JF-18 on a piece of the latest and greatest hardware without reducing the image quality. _________________________ Team Superhornet Add-on Installation Guide & TSH v4 Manual TSH forums www.twitter.com/SimHQ www.youtube.com/SimHQcom

'Doc' Senior Member Registered: 11/15/02 Posts: 3168	What are your thoughts regarding Tatsu's idea in his post below (from the thread at http://www.simhq.com/simhq3/sims/boards/bbs/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=32;t=008921 ): Quote: Originally posted by Tatsu: For those that really like to try mess around with something and have a ATI card there's this.. http://www.nonatainment.de/portal/DesktopDefault.aspx?tabindex=7&tabid=19 Apparently you can make your ATI card go into super sample mode... that might fix the Air to Air slow down when using FSAA since it would be using SSAA. Use at your own risk!!! I don't have the heart to try it......yet. _________________________ 'Doc' (aka '195th_Doc') TSH Administrator Doc's hypocritic Oath: First do no HARM?

531 Ghost USMC Veteran Registered: 09/17/02 Posts: 10444 Loc: Elizabeth City NC	OK Joe, just tried AA set to 8 and AF set to 16 no go here VERY stuttery. Put it back to application controlled and smooth as silk. $\:\)$ _________________________ Originally Posted By: Abraham Lincoln America will never be destroyed from the outside.

Un-Install Radlinker. 2. Un-Install all graphic card drivers and control panels. 3. Re-Start 4. Install new version of DirectX ##. 5. Re-Start 6. Install graphic card drivers and control panel. 7. Re-Start 8. Install Radlinker and creat radlink to F-18E. 9. Re-Start 10. Set all graphic settings to personal preference. 11.
