DX-10 Discussions, Hints and Help

Hello, Today, I purchased the Steve's DX10 Fixer. And I happy with it because I got my troubles fixed! Typically, I got my shadows in fuselage. But I got one problem in my FSX after I purchased DX10 fixer. I CAN see the shadows in the fuselage and wings, etc. from 'Outside View' (through F11 Key). However, When I change my view to the 'Wing view', the shadow in my wing just DISAPPEARED! I think it's related to the distance with the view point and the shadow. or is there any problems with my DX10 Fixer Settings? I'll tell you few of my DX10 Fixer settings below. ----- My DX10 Fixer Settings ----- In Shadow…

Hello, Thanks to many recommendations in here Avsim, I finally decided to buy the Steve's DX10 Fixer to improve my FSX! It was very helpful in deciding my mind to move DX10 :D But Before purchasing the DX10 Fixer, I have few questions to ask. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. I found that the DX10 Fixer improves the Shadows in VC(more accurately). And also found that the 'PMDG 737NGX' has sharp and accurate VC shadows with DX10 Fixer! That's Cool!! But, I couldn't found any clips or images about PMDG 777 or PMDG 747 V3 ones... Is it FULLY compatible with P…

Hello, I'm a Simmer from the South Korea! This is my first time to write the article in Avsim Forum. 🙂 Usually, I enjoying FSX with DX9 mode, because when I run my sim with DX10 Preview mode, I just got A LOT of problems with my FSX.(I think it's because of the absence of DX10 Fixer..) Even though I cannot activate my DX10 Preview mode, I really want to get the 'Vivid Shadows on the Fuselage' which was enabled in DX10 Preview mode. So, To see the shadows on the Fuselage, I tweaked my 'General.fx' and 'General10.fx' in my ShadersHLSL folder which is in the FSX root folder. The Link below was very helpful so I refer to i…

I run FSX:SE with DirectX 10 Preview enabled along with Steve's improved DX10 shaders. I like the roughly 5 fps increase I get and the look and effect on my stock aircraft and those I've purchased. Running like that of course eliminates using any of the FS9 aircraft that have been updated for FSX, but never had their textures converted to the new DDS file format. So...I've been trying to convert 2 fan made editions of the Junkers 52, but I'm very frustrated by the process and are about to throw in the towel. I noticed with everyone of my stock FSX:SE aircraft and DX10 compatible ones I've purchased, they have textures in a 1024x1024 DTX5 format with a DDS file extens…

Hi all I had not played FSX:SE for a few months. When I started a few weeks ago whenever I pressed fly and tried to go into the actual sim all I got was a black screen. I did some research and found that I had to select the 'Preview Direct X10' option in the settings menu of the sim. This worked. However, I have now tweaked my Nvidia Inspector and fsx config file according to https://www.simforums.com/forums/nvi-w7810-driver-setup-fsx-fsxse-and-p3d-update_topic59954.html In this guide it states that these settings will not work when this box is selected. I am still getting the same issue after my compleet un-install and then re-install. Like I say, I have tw…

As some of you may know, using DX10 and IVAO MTL results in seeing airplanes all white and untextured. Any idea how to fix this? If someone could describe the algorithm I would create a software application that does that. Thanks Mike

(d3dx10_34.dll) this file is the problem maker when ever i take this off from my FSX root directory Spotlight works but runway starts flashing with black boxes on the texture appriciate your help.

Hi all I'm thinking about buying the cls 767. I know that this aircraft is not dx10 compatible because IT is a native fs9 model. Would i be able tot use the aircraft in dx10 by using the dx10 fixer?

Hi, does anyone know how i go about re downloading the DX 10 Fixer? order number: Removed Regards.

Hello All. Instead, in FSX, unticking direct X10 to fly without black boxes showing in the scenery, I was informed that in AVSim there is a file called 'shader_release_v3.2.3 zip'. I tried the search without success, does anyone know where it is located. Regards to all, Jim ZL2BMH

Hi everyone, isn't there any way to configurate the DX10 Fixer for Intel GPU (My laptop uses Intel 4600 GPU). Eventhough I have a I7 proc and 8 gb ram. I have made almost all twecks but I can't get a smooth FSX with 4X or 8X without suffering fps drops unless AA is disable. FPS drops really bad when clouds are affected with AA, it would be great if we could make AA to work in separate ways clouds / scenary. Configurating the Intel Graphics Menu is not enough to make work AA without considerable lack of FPS. In that case, which options in the Intel Menu would be better to use the fixer? I just read posts about Nvidia (Nvidia Inspector) or ATI (CCC) but not …

Long story short - old Win 7 machine died. Bought new Win 10 machine. Installed FSX/SE (same as before), loaded my ORBX stuff (same as before), and downloaded Steve's DX10 Fixer (but DID NOT INSTALL!). Fired up FSX, went to the Settings and set up my grafix for 1920x1080, Aniso/AA, and Preview DX10 (as Steve has suggested to make sure the sim would work with it BEFORE installing his fix). Loaded up my A2A P-51 at my local airport, and got this result: Bad grafix Turned off DX10 and the black boxes go away. I did not have this problem with Win 7, and want to go with DX10. Any ideas just what is causing this?

Hi there, I run FSX SE with DX10, I noticed all of a sudden when I load my PMDG 747 I get like random blue panels with FSX written across it also in my PMDG 777 If I load it at night the arm rests on the seats turn blue too, please can any one help me here?? Thanks Perry!

In connection with setup of a new monitor ASUS P277B I verified the Steam files and subsequently checked all addons, scenery paths etc. My system is now working fine in DX9 with acceptable FPS for my machine (specs below). I then proceeded to upgrade to the latest DX10 version as I have worked with DX10 before and it worked OK on my old rig. Now when staring FSX SE I cannot see the aircraft screen and should I choose 'Free Flight ' to fly the standard C172 the progress bar immediately jumps to around 82% and 100% immediately afterwards. The screen remains black and I have no other alternative other than to close down. I have checked the FSX path (I have Ste…

I wanted to ask if using the bloom and lens flare effect are lost of fps. Seeing the Avisim basic settings guide and the screenshot present in it is not checked for both effects. The guide recommends using the "Steve fixer DX10". Should the effects be enabled or not? Obviously in DX 10 Preview with the "Steve fixer". Thank you. Gianmarco Ragazzoni

Hi, to use the bloom of Steve's DX10 Fixer should I enable the bloom effect also from fsx settings? Thanks. Gianmarco Ragazzoni

Good Night. I have fsx se with REx 4 texture (orbx, vector...) direct installed + Directx 10 and Steves Fix. My options on the D10 Controller and Nvidia Inspector are 8x and 8 sssg. My GPU is NVIDIA Gigabyte G1 gaming 1070. Those runway lines keep moving all the time, so it really catches my attention. Does it have a solution ? Thank you very much

Yesterday I flew into that airport at night and while it looks better in general, the runway lights are missing. I can see the PAPI but not the runway itself, which makes visual approaches kind of risky. ;) taxiway lights work fine though....using steves fixer and converted "light effects only". Any ideas?

Hello! Yesterday I tried a DX10Fixer option that shows if a texture is missing, and once I tried FSx, in Lisbon I saw there were lots of missing textures. How can I know from wich file they belong? Because it says what are missing but not from where, or I´m wrong? Thank´s in advance

Hi, I am really struggling with the dx10 fixer as the water looks like something from a snes or Sega mega drive, I am running a Xeon 12 core threaded to 24 core and affinity mask settings to utilise the majority of the cores, I have a GTX 1080 8gb gpu and 32gb ram, running my os and fsx off a 500gb ssd, so I don’t lack power or performance, I have orbx FTX global base pack, vector, open lc Europe, and EU England and I have Rex 4 Texture Direct+Soft Clouds. But something isn’t right Please help

I have been reading regards dx10 what does it do I have at present( orbx )on,plus all the freemesh downloads I find these work wonders I tried the dx10 preview, it made scenery brighter but looked like a false handmade landscape. is there some secret to the settings and will it beat the orbx I have on already its so real .

Hi guys, I installed latest nVidia driver and latest nVidia Inspector 2.13. Before install them I exported my inspector profile. But when I try to import it, Inspector tell me that I can't do it because a profile is still in use. Anyway....I want to redo all setiings in Inspector from scratch, so is there someone that can share its settings? I'm using FSX-SE with SteveFX fixer, Cloud Shadows and Shade. Thanks so much in advance, Ric

Hi guys, need help. I'm trying to install Steves 10x fixer V3.2.3 for my FSX-SE, but when i run the setup.bat if finds my FSX folder just fine but then gives me a message saying "Sorry cannot locate shaders10 directory in C:/Users/Richard Smith/appdata/local/microsoft/FSX" then gives another message telling me to delete the dir Manually. I've searched for the Shaders10 dir and its located in c:/users/admin/appdata/local/microsoft/FSX instead. I've tried manually deleting the shaders10 dir and running the setup again but its gives the same error. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

I am going to post this on AVSIM DX10 Forum as well as AVSIM ChasePlane Forum as I am not sure where the issue lies. I just purchased and installed Steve's DX10 Fixer in my FSX-SE. I have been running ChasePlane for a long time with no issues. I also tested my system using DX10 before purchasing and installing and all worked well, except of course for the graphic issues with DX10 checked. Now when I load a flight after installation my ChasePlane presets have a very long delay before moving to the views selected and sometimes no movement at all. Any help would be appreciated
