Ace_Hyflyer Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Hi all, I've just purchased LO:FC and patched it up to 1.12a and I'm having a blast flying the A-10. However I've got a problem with my water. My specs: Dell Inspiron XPS Gen 2 2.13 Ghz Pentium M nVidia 6800 Ultra 256MB 78.51 drivers 1GB 533Mhz RAM Windows XP I run FC with these settings: Textures: High Scenes: High Water: Medium Fog: Basic Effects: Low Lights: All Shadows: Active Planar Civilians: off Heat Blur: off Visibility Range: High (with a few tweaks) I have the latest FPS tweak for 1.12a (available on lockonfiles.com), plus a water mod called "Enhanced FPS Water Mod" by D-Scythe, plus a few other tweaks for the sun, moon, runways, clouds, etc... (All from lockonfiles.com). My problem is that my water flickers terribly. Almost looks like repetitive noise, it gets worse the farther out it goes. I tried water to very high on the default A-10 Oil Tanker mission, and the flickering was worse, and the reflections from the mountains were jumping around and looked absolutely terrible. Does anyone have any ideas how I could solve this? Thanks, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Csmag Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 I had the same problem and it's D-scyth's water mod which is causing it. <i7 2600k | 2x HD6950 | 8GB DDR3 | Crucial m4 64GB> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViperVJG73 Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 Your flickering is done by competitively settings under lock On graphics and your settings by your graphics adapter. Set the graphics adapter settings: Negative LOD-Bias to "clamp". AA to 4x , AF to 8x. and quality to high. FC with these settings: Textures: High Scenes: High Water: Medium Haze: Advanced (changed) Effects: Medium (changed) Lights: All Shadows: Active Planar Civilians: off Heat Blur: off Visibility Range: High PS. With overcast and fog settings should DENSITY set to zero!

Ace_Hyflyer Posted April 12, 2006 Author Share Posted April 12, 2006 Thanks fellows, The D-scythe water mod does cause flickering, although it is reduced after setting the graphics settings as recommended. However, the only way to get rid of all flickering is by removing the mod. Now I've just got to tweak it out again to get playable FPS, since I play at 1600*1200 :icon_syda:icon_syda:icon_syda Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
