GreyKnight Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 With myself and Painless recently getting nVidia 8800 GT cards, we found that although we got lovely perfect settings, we also experienced Vertical Shearing of the cockpit when using head tracking software. It took us a day or two to find the solution, so here it is for those who go down the same route as ourselves. You can alter some of these settings of your own conf.iie in order to get the right FPS for your PC. But to get PERFECT settings, like the lovely water, you need HardwareShaders=1 set. conf.ini [Render_OpenGL] TexQual=3 TexMipFilter=3 TexCompress=0 TexFlags.UseDither=1 TexFlags.UseAlpha=0 TexFlags.UseIndex=0 TexFlags.PolygonStipple=1 TexFlags.UseClampedSprites=0 TexFlags.DrawLandByTriangles=1 TexFlags.UseVertexArrays=1 TexFlags.DisableAPIExtensions=0 TexFlags.ARBMultitextureExt=1 TexFlags.TexEnvCombineExt=1 TexFlags.SecondaryColorExt=1 TexFlags.VertexArrayExt=1 TexFlags.ClipHintExt=0 TexFlags.UsePaletteExt=0 TexFlags.TexAnisotropicExt=1 TexFlags.TexCompressARBExt=1 TexFlags.TexEnvCombine4NV=1 TexFlags.TexEnvCombineDot3=1 TexFlags.DepthClampNV=1 TexFlags.SeparateSpecular=1 TexFlags.TextureShaderNV=1 HardwareShaders=1 Shadows=2 Specular=2 SpecularLight=2 DiffuseLight=2 DynamicalLights=1 MeshDetail=2 VisibilityDistance=3 Sky=2 Forest=3 LandShading=3 LandDetails=2 LandGeom=3 TexLarge=1 TexLandQual=3 TexLandLarge=1 VideoSetupId=17 Water=4 Effects=2 ForceShaders1x=0 TypeClouds=1 PolygonOffsetFactor=-0.15 PolygonOffsetUnits=-3.0 NVIDIA Control Panel - Manage 3D settings IL-2 Sturmovik: Forgotten Battles + Ace Expansion Pack You can set your AA, AF and all settings as you see fit for your PC spec, but to prevent Vertical Shearing, we found this solution - MULTI-DISPLAY/MIXED-GPU ACCELERATION = MULTIPLE DISPLAY PERFORMANCE TRIPLE BUFFERING = OFF VERTICAL SYNCH = FORCE ON Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1. DDz Quorum Painless Posted March 7, 2008 1. DDz Quorum Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 ~S~ Chaps, As GK has said these settings both NVIDIA and Confini have worked a treat. Beautiful graphics with NO SHEAR ! Weird that selecting "Multiple Display Performance" had a large part in getting rid of vertical shear ! ?
