Wow.

Can someone else give this a shot?

No-go for me. Am running an ATI AIW 9700 Pro. I don't recall nVidia users having any graphical issues....

No Go here. 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.

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.

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 ):

I'll check it fer ya tonight Joe

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.
