Looking for help with MFCDs/TV displays!

[ozTRipwiRE]

Hi,

I have a problem with a basically new PC that is not displaying the Warthog’s MFDs and the Black Shark’s TV display to a decent standard. I have previously posted on this but thought it could help to put this post under the Warthog, Black Shark and Input/Output sections. Sorry if it is long post but I have had a lot of problems with these games!

When I load up a game of the DCS A10C and go to target the trucks, for example, in the first Instant Action Mission, on my new PC (on both my large screen TV and another PC monitor that I used to check to see if it would work better) they don’t show up most of the time even when the Targeting Pod is pointed straight at them and at a zoom level where they should show up (not zoomed way out in other words). Often when I zoom right in close they will suddenly appear. I am using (on my PC which is giving me the problems) the download version of DCS Warthog in DCS World. When I play on a different, less powerful PC and monitor with a version of the sim I put on from CD I can see the enemy ground targets clearly and from a very ‘zoomed out’ perspective on the MFDs in the Hog and the TV display in the Black Shark. With the Black Shark the display is very clear on the other PC (not the one that is giving me problems).This problem with the sensors not picking up targets properly is my first problem.

The second is the actual display in the Black Shark on my new gaming PC. As I said it is very good on the PC I used to use but is much less clear on my new gaming PC. It is not blurry but is still very hard to scan for targets due to it having less clarity, I suppose I could say. I tried changing the cockpit displays to 1024 as ShuRugal suggested and this helped a little but the quality is still very hard to read when looking for enemy targets. It is only the TV display that is like this, the rest of the cockpit is very good. I use HDMI to connect my gaming PC to my large screen TV also.

 

I did check the settings (under 'Options')for the Warthog on that other PC and changed the Warthog’s settings on my gaming PC to be the same but still the Targeting Pod would not pick up targets properly. It still would not pick up targets properly at all zoom levels. I then put back the settings to how they were. I could not take a screenshot of these and paste them in for some reason so I have written them out here. These settings are:

Textures- High

Scenes- High

Civ Traffic- Off

Water- High

Visible Range- High

Heat blur- Off

Shadows- High

Resolution- 1366 × 768

Aspect Ratio- 1.7786458333333

Monitors- 1 screen

Resolution of cockpit displays- 1024

MSAA- 8 ×

HDR- Off

Clutter/Bushes- 0m

Trees visibility- 5757m

Preload radius- 150000m

Disable Aero Interface was not ticked.

Tree Shadows was not ticked.

VSYNC was not ticked.

Full Screen was not ticked.

Cockpit shadows was not ticked.

TSSAA was ticked.

 

To test to see if it is a problem with my PC or with my large screen TV I set the PC up with another monitor and still could not pick up the ground targets properly, so I believe it is a problem with the settings or something like that on my actual computer. Could anyone please help me out and advise me on what could be the problem here and what I could do to get the TV display on the Black Shark to a decent level of clarity and to get both the functioning of that display and the MFCDs in the A10C to a good level where I can properly pick up targets on the ground at all zoom levels like I can do on my old ‘back up’ computer? Thanks very much for any help with this.

 

My present PC specs are: Intel Core i7-4770 CPU @3.40GHz LGA 1150, 8GB Corsair DDR3 1600MHz RAM, 64 bit operating system, Leadtek GTX 660TI PCI-E 2GB 192-bit DDR5 graphics card, Gigabyte GA-Z87-HD3 4xDDR3 motherboard. My sound card is a 256MB RAM 3-core MDX Intel ® Display Audio, NVIDIA High Definition Audio and Realtek High Definition Audio.
