discussion about nvidia 8800 card settings

[G3]

with community help, i would like to determine the best videocard settings for bvr in lockon, such as when you are looking for enemy aircraft just entering the wvr threshold. Specifically for the 8800 series cards.

 

currently i am seeing distant enemy aircraft as an occasional flicker, i am sure image quality has been better on my older system.

 

so things on topic would be:

 

1. IN GAME GRAPHIC SETTINGS.

 

2. nVIDIA DRIVER VERSIONS winxp 32

 

3. AA and AF settings in nvidia control panel,

global setting or lockon specific, neg lod clamp etc.

 

4. sli on or off, also different rendering modes etc.

 

i am sure my image quality has been better in the past.

heres hoping we can discover some improvements.

for reference sake, let me begin.

 

1. in game settings all max other than shadows and water.

 

2. 169.44

 

3. have not changed from standard driver settings.

 

4. sli is on as i get far superior performance in other games.

 

see my sig for system specs.

I have my 8800 GTS 640 maxed out in image quality except AA, wich is off because it makes my life of spotting enemy aircraft more difficult.

so its the AA that makes planes harder to spot?

look at it this way... the higher resolution you go and with some AA the harder is too see aircraft... those "airborne dots" simply blur in....
