From your last comment, I take it that you are only going to run payware models on your payware sim

Well..

I talked myself into being brave and have oiked the X700Pro 128 out and thrown a 256mb 6800U in (could be a GT!) and while it handles GenX a little better.. I'm seeing stuttering without GenX where I didn't see it before :roll: Worse still.. FS9 errored for the first time in.. well, yonks and now I can't see the aircraft in the 'Select Aircraft' window :huf: Woe is me :crying:

Anyone remember how you get the little spinning aircraft back please :sad:

Hi Dave

Has the AA set itself higher :think:

On my card if the AA goes too high the spinning plane won't show...no idea why, but it happens

Hi Garry...

Oh.. CRAP!!! That rings a bell and was the cause of me pulling out a brand new 6600GT a couple of weeks after I'd bought it

That was the last Nvidia card I bought.. been ATI ever since :roll:

If I remember right.. if I dropped the AA to see the spinning aircraft, FSNav took 5years to redraw :shock: Poo.. Poo.. Poo and great big vats of POO!! I had to move my two SATA drives and rearrange my pwr plugs to accomodate this bugger too

Cheers anyway matey

Flaming 'eck Eddie, you certainly know how to get everyones' attention to discuss a subject!!!

Have never bought FSX and doubt if I ever will. (Now watch me eat those words in a few years)!! :roll:

As I understand, MS brought out FSX to capture peoples' imagination, to bring more simmers into the market rather than just cater for the ones already in. Unless MS come up with greater imagination and improve the flight sim to what it really should be rather than selling just a basic package (and expecting others to make up for what is lacking in it) at an overly inflated price......MS that is........not the adder-oners!!

As for comments made MS should make direct approaches to flight sim communities and ask how real it should be!!

Sorry, but just wanted to add my bit.

Regards Nigel.

Garry..

Changing the AA setting has no effect at all mate.. my little spinning aircraft refuses to show. Think I'll throw the x700 back in :sad:

I bought FSX, couldn't get it to work half as well as FS9 and I recently uninstalled it.

This has deleted my FS9 registry items and caused loads of problems with add ons.

Thanks Bill.

Jon
Still reinstalling FS9 a week later. :sad:

I had that one too. Suddenly the spinning aircraft vanished....

well everything seemed to be alright otherwise so I just left it as-is. Continued tweaking up and down in mip maps, AA. Aniso etc etc and suddenly it came back...

Well I'm sure this will help you

Btw. if you are currently in a "GeForce state" try out NVTray (the equivalent to ATITrayTools....

You can't beat a little coversation Nigel, especially with the wealth of knowledge that we have at our disposal here! I'm enjoying reading these posts and it seems there's plenty to say on the subject..

Hi Dan,

Yes.. I'm still in a GeForce state at the mo. Where do you get your hands on NVTray..or is it the icon that sit's in your systray?? If it's the systray jobbie, I have that already. It allows you to tweak every setting I can think of and probably a few that I can't (a lot!)
