I lately use PD.10 and no MSAA! Finally I can see contacts, yes it is choppy, but as everybody is familiar with their planes and cockpit visibility is not as important as contacts, i find allround thats the best seting, before that was using PD 1.5 with MSAA 2x. You have to choose U wanna see gauges (that you know anyway) or contacts. I found that even PD 1.1 will not make any improvement on gauges but will hit contact visibility;) As long as ED finds some other solution or makes labels small again that we can use them, there is no alternative. I know this is not the most popular opinion, but give it a go try one week with these settings on missions, and i guess U will agree that those visual hits are minor in comparison with visibility bonus!
