You could probably guess from the topic that I'm pretty mch shooting in the dark here. I've seen other's screenies and vids, and then I've been wondering why I still have blue tears, no prop in the cockpit, etc. I have 16 Gb RAM and a 660 Ti card, driver 340.52. Now, I've read a bunch of things about Nvidia inspector settings, and control panel settings, and I've tried that, and have ended up even more confused.
I tried to set these in Inspector, since I saw these settings on a post from I think Madmatt, that I can't find now:



but when I click "apply changes," it changes it this:




and, if I look at the global profile from the control panel, this is there:




so, a) why aren't the settings being saved in the inspector?
b) should any profile be the same, whether I use inspector or control panel?
c) am I using any of these things even remotely correctly?
d) is there a thread somewhere that I should be looking at?
e) does any of this even matter?
f) what is the airspeed of an unladened swallow?

I also remember seeing a few times that Nvidia ignores the CFS3 profile that it has, so I shouldn't bother trying to change that. I actually did, but I have the same type of issue in that any changes I make aren't saved when I click "apply."

I can't help with a through e, but I do know that it totally depends on which type of swallow we are talking about. biggrin

I have to hit apply changes twice to make it stick, but my CFS3 profile does get used by the Nvidia driver when the game runs.

Hi Lofty,

I think you need to update your driver to 355.60.

I don't use Nvidia Inspector (too complicated for me),
however, a couple of drivers ago I could not save any
changes to the control panel. A quick search revealed
that this was a known problem. I think there was a
(very complicated) workaround but it seems Nvidia fixed
the prob with the current and previous driver.

Hi Sid,

Literally one step ahead of you, as that's the first thing I just did this a.m. Unfortunately, no luck. I guess my big concerns stem from not even seeing a flicker of the prop when in cockpit; I used to, and now I can't, but I see shots where so many others can (as they should), and if I'm missing that, then what else am I missing? And WHY? what is it about my rig that's wrong? (and I'm assuming that I've got something wrong)

I hesitate to ask someone to post their Nvidia settings, since there are already a few of those out there, and almost as many variations.

If this is WOFF doesn't make much sense,

However you reported missing props before.

Yeah, Pol, the props came back before after a reinstall, but I think that was more of a coincidence, since nothing is working now, and I'm afraid that the props are just a tip of a deeper problem for me. I keep hoping that it's just some button that I need to click, and I get more frustrated each day not being able to figure out something that, as you said, "doesn't make much sense."
