Tips and tricks / FAQ

[Jorgensen]

Hi

I wonder if there could be a tips and tricks / faq thread where people could share settings and other tips like:

- what should i set the full screen resolution to in fsx? (and has it any meaning for Flyinside?)
- should anti-aliasing be enabled / unabled in fsx?

thanks

Was ment to be under fsx.

Can it be moved?

I just moved it for you

I think this is certainly a good idea. To get started:
-FSX Full Screen resolution shouldn't matter. FlyInside puts FSX in windowed mode, and then enforces its own resolution. You can configure resolution using the FlyInside Settings dialog
-I would disable anti-aliasing in FSX for now. FlyInside offers its own anti-aliasing implementation, once again, under settings, and FSX anti-aliasing sometimes leads to incompatibilities

Hope that help!

I didn't even think about the D3D9.dll hook and its control over graphic changes made to FSX. I'm glad you mentioned this because I was starting to eye some of the settings within Nvidia Inspector to test some cheap optimizations like the ones available for D3D10. So my question is right in line with the OPs request....What should we disable to see potential performance improvements without losing visual quality? From your earlier post, I assume it's best to disable AA within FSX. Should we disable AF as well? What other settings would you recommend that we scale down because it simply doesn't matter to have them set high?
