seahawk09 0 Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Hey all, Just wanted to say all those holding on to FS2004 if you dont have a Duel Core processer yet get one soon. I recently upgraded my machine with a intel duel core and flying FS 2004 has never been so nice very stable and not doesent look like a beta version like FSX, if only they could have made FSX less fuzzy and beta looking maybe I would be flying it. Anyway I just wanted to point to those who still fly FS 2004 get a duel Core processer and enjoy flying like it was ment to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick C 110 Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 If only they could have made FSX less fuzzy and beta looking Hi Seahawk, I'm glad you can run FS9 well on your new system, although I run it with everything maxed with a single old 2.4 chipset with no issues. Out of interest do you have a copy of FSX? I've never seen it looking fuzzy unless the quality of the ground textures are turned down. In fact it's a damn site sharper than FS9 as the level of detail has increased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seahawk09 0 Posted February 9, 2007 Author Share Posted February 9, 2007 Hey Nick, I certianly do have a copy of FSX I have tried higher settings on it but for some reason it taxes my system I recently had to do a completely new install of windows XP so i'll give it a shot again maybe i had alot of junk holding my system back. Boy I bet you guys wish you could run the Cheyenne on FSX huh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanP 0 Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Not really... yet. We're having a lot of fun with other stuff in FSX and flying the Cheyenne in FS9. I'm sure if and when it makes it across to FSX, it'll be good there too, but in the meantime, there's plenty of other stuff to do! Ian P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skydvdan 2 Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 If only they could have made FSX less fuzzy and beta looking I understand what he means about the fuzziness. Somehow it's just not as sharp as FS9 was. It's almost like they tried to soften the imagery but instead just made it grainy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow it's just not as sharp as FS9 was. It's almost like they tried to soften the imagery but instead just made it grainy. How it actually LOOKS is really up to the graphics card spendingt half an hour with for example the Catalyst Control Center (if you got an ATI card) really shows you how setting determine how it looks.

skydvdan 2 Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Not as sharp as FS2004 :?: :?: :?: It can't be seen in screenshots. I suspect that much like the game "Just Cause" that maybe it's some sort of attempt at motion blur, maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kofi 0 Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Dan Still don't know what you're talking about :?: Although I don't have an INTEL processor I do have an ATI Video card (as Mathijs mentioned). But as long as I don't go too fast, I don't have any type of blurring...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinny 0 Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 I have an Intel computer (core 2 duo) and a graphics card with a 9 Billion pixels/sec fill rate. (That incidentally, is far more important that the amount of RAM. You can have 512 MB of video ram with a fill rate of 2 Billion pixels/sec and a 256 MB ram card with a high pixel fill rate will beat it hands-down.) Anyway, to the point. My graphics are *crystal clear* like kofi's screenshots. There's no comparison to FS9, FSX beats FS9 into the ground when it comes to graphics. Puppy P.S. Awesome screenies Kofi!

Nick C 110 Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Perfect examples. To suggest that even with dual core, FSX looks blurred is rather worrying. Think before you offer suggestions Sir :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as long as I don't go too fast, I don't have any type of blurring...) It's not blurred... it's like fuzzy. It's very hard to explain. I shot alot of video so I know what I'm trying to say I just can't explain it. It's like they are trying to simulate distance or motion blur or something. It gives the sim a softer look I guess. I obviously can't explain it so don't worry about it. But it's there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick C 110 Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Dan, would you like to borrow my "monitor" glasses or even my "monitor" wipes? :wink: Only kidding, but there are many factors which do include GX cards and monitors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kofi 0 Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Could be but I'm not the only one then. Dan, I think what your experiencing is when the ground hasn't completely "drawn". A good "check" of this is to to fly over an area with lots of roads, then pause. What you'll most likely see at the 4 edges of your monitor are distinct areas of the roads that aren't as sharp as those directly beneath your aircraft. - This is because the textures haven't completely drawn in. I have the same problem too and the way I best AVOID it is to not fly anything faster than around 250kias or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
