Sinky Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I've been having problems with blurry textures since my reformat. I can't recall if this started happening when I got my new GPU or with the new patch. The textures are not as bad when flying at low level but it's not far off the screen shot. I have 16X AF forced in CCC along with high quality texture filtering and mip mapping. Thanks in advance for any help.

Panzertard Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I wouldn't know how to get rid of it, but I know how to make suggestions: - Reset & clean out all Graphic drivers (as well as running driver sweeper), reinstall drivers. Need to get all the settings back to default. - If not change, try a full reinstall of the game, remember to clean out the C:\Users\<you>\Saved Games\DCS Warthog before you install again. 1 The mind is like a parachute.

Mustang Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 You might want to take a look through the posts in this thread http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=71383 (post #12 onwards is where the juicy info starts) it may or may not be related to the blurryness you're experiencing, but still worth a read. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinky Posted April 11, 2011 Author Share Posted April 11, 2011 I will try a full reinstall of the game in a day or two using the newly patched download, failing that I will mess with the drivers.

I tried a full reinstall of the new download yesterday and I'm still having the same problem. I've seen someone else with the problem here http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=71789. As a side note, I did remember to clear out the DCS Warthog folder. I also left graphic settings untouched after the reinstall just in case.

Mustang Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 (edited) Ok, well thats how the settings should be. Quite baffling really, since i use a XFX HD5770 1GB too, but i never see these blurry textures :huh: edit: just noticed in your first post, you'd already put up your texture quality and mipmap settings, sorry for missing that.

Sinky Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 It's got me stumped, when I think about it I'm sure I saw this appear in patch .6, much less pronounced but it was there.

Mustang Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 (edited) Just jumped in and took a snapshot over the area of the map that you flew over to get your screenshot: although it isn't as blurry as your picture, i do notice a bit towards the top edge of the picture....i'm wondering if it's something to do with the settings i tweaked earlier in the High.lua file, i'll do some more testing. edit: right, i've just adjusted my High.lua file, noise1back now set to "noise1back = 50000.0;" and i get this: if you compare with the picture above, you can see there is quite a marked difference, although theres the slight side effect of darker terrain, especially on those fields.

Sinky Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 Just tried your tweak, changing the High.lua file inside the Config/terrain folder. I used the Black Sea Runway Start mission for testing. While I can see a massive difference in your screen shot, it appears just as bad on my end. I've attached a few screen shots. I appreciate the effort your putting in to try and fix this.

Mustang Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Very mysterious. Ok, lets try something else: go into your graphics.cfg and hunt down line 286 "LandLodDistances". Change the default parameters to match these settings i use: LandDay { L01 = 30000; L12 = 50000; } LandNight { L01 = 30000; L12 = 50000; some have said that these settings have no effect in DCS A-10C, but i still have a feeling that they do have some impact (P.S please remember to backup your original files whilst doing all this) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinky Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 Still appears to be no change, attached a few more screen shots including one of my options. Only the resolution and MSAA have been changed from the settings the sim suggested after the reinstall.

Sinky Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 Yeah it's more likely anisotropic filtering than anti-aliasing. I doubt that is the case in this instance though, seems to be a change made to the sim. It is strange how some are getting it and some aren't.

winz Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 (edited) Maybe a wild shot, but could you try to turn HDR off? Edited April 18, 2011 by winz The Valley A-10C Version Revanche for FC 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insanatrix Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I noticed actually that after I reinstalled the full 0.7 install my ground textures were quite blurry as well. This was from a patched 0.6 to 0.7 install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinky Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 (edited) I tried with HDR off when I was testing the flickering I had. I don't remember it fixing the blurry problem but I will test that and also the high vis distance when I next get a chance to jump on the sim.

Sinky Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 Using high visibility distance it looks perfect. I think this is down to Mustang's tweak in the High.lua. I thought it was changing settings for the high scene setting so when testing I never set my visibility to high. This meant I never saw the changes. You could try applying his tweak to medium.lua if you use medium vis distance. Thanks Mustang, won't let me give you rep at the moment though.
