Guys, I switched my video card from Sapphire ATI 9600XT 128 MB DDR AGP to BFG GeForce 7800GS OC 256 MB GDDR3 AGP. It is awesome I can setup all on high setting. I played JF-18 yesterday, it was awesome. I can't wait to played it on my day off.

Hello folks, I am using an ATI X1300 and was also experiencing the AA slowdown. I found a work around that in AA mode is very smooth just like in any other mode. Here is what I have set up for the ATI card using the Catalyst Control Center:
Anti-aliasing to application managed Anisotropic filtering to appliction managed
Open GL settings: Tripple Buffering to ON Force 24 bit Z buffer depth to ON
In Game grapics selection: Sparkling Water to ON Low Mip Mapping to OFF
My operating system is XP home SP2
This done the trick for me and I hope it helps out my fellow ATI users.
Later,
Orion
Luck is when Preparation meets an opportunity

Later,
Orion I am sorry to tell you this, but you haven't done a work around. Your first item of "change" you posted is this "Anti-aliasing to application managed" that doesn't have AA On, it in fact keeps it Off unless the sim asks for it, which it does not. So really, you just turned AA off, and yes, that will get you no slow-down. Sorry bud  PS, This game is D3D Only, OpenGL has no effect here. **Also posted in main thread**

Hi, I use the eDimensional 3D glasses and experience the slowdown mentioned here when in 3D Stereo Mode and in A/A mode. I do NOT experience it when the 3D effect is temporarily switched OFF. I know that could be a sort of workaround but it just ruins the Effect. Is there a Possible fix for 3D and this slowdown TSH?? I also when looking back at the Wing under the canopy both Right & Left side looking back I see graphic gliches, the Wing Part under the canapy looks enlarged and doubled hard to explain but it isnt right. when I switch Off the 3D effect the Wing Part looks normal. It is more under the Front part of the wing under the canapy then goes into the wing it is deformed and a Part of the wing is down the length of the outside of the wing under the canapy seperate from the plane wing?? I have read about these kinds of Glitches in 3D and TSH would have to correct it. As I am Probally one of the Very Few Who still use the 3D glasses I would really appreciate a possible fix for this, it is Not a Game ruiner but annoying as the game looks really cool in 3D. EDIT: I can take a Picture of it in 3d and you can see what I am talking about as it is kinda hard to Describe and I probally didnt explain it well My Specs: Pentium 4 3.06Ghz HT 1.25gb PC2700 eVGA Geforce 7800GS CO 256mb Audigy2 ZS Win XP Pro SP2 I also tried in Win 98 compatability mode that didnt work. I am using the 91.31 Drivers & 91.31 Stereo Drivers that is all I can use. THNX -Gerald

Thanks for that...problem solved! I suspect this might not be the last of the RTFM! posts I add to the F/A18 Forum while i'm getting back into it! Wicked job on the TSH upgrades BTW...Thanks for keeping this sim alive!

Well after ALL this Time I finally Solved my Issue. Basically I just turned Down the convergence and Increased the Seperation a lil and the wing took the correct Shape..Finally I was testing the WideView pit on my new Rig and 45" Screen WOW does it look GREAT!! THNX ALL this is still a FINE SIm one of the bes.t Hopefully they are still flying it on HL?? I still get the A-A slowdown in A-A mode and with the 3D ENabled but if the 3D is Off I dont experience said Slowdown, Wierd?? EDIT: I Finally Fixed the A-A slowdown while in 3D, I DL'd DXTweaker that comes with the One Click Installe All is well No mre switching from 3d Mode to 2D Mode COOL

Sorry, I'm not sure what TSH could do... Hey Joe, weird thing with the new version of TSH4 that graphical glich with the wing is gone now. But I have a host of other problems like the A-A Banding with 3D ENabled again, that was fixed before with the directx tweaker but not with the new version of TSH???? I also get some sort of Projector video display problems, upon starting F-18 I have to hit on the Proj. remote, vid 2 input then input 1 to get the video working and same thing upon going into the Sim and exiting to the menu very annoyin any idea as to what would cause that, I had set the Rez in the manager to same as desktop and at 1024 x 768 like my desktop is anyway but no good same problem with the input getting pooched??
