DX-10 Discussions, Hints and Help

Is there a way I can enable it? I have gone to settings and tried setting it on. It shows as if it was enabled, but I can tell it is not on at all. (Also, does anyone know where i can locate FSX' cfg file?) Thanks.

My experience with Aerosoft Mega Helsinki: I installed this airport after I had already set up FSX to run in DX10 mode (with the free DX10 shader fixes by Steve). Main problem with EFHK in DX10 was at night = no taxiway lights, grey textures on nearby buildings and taxiways, no labels on taxiway signs (just grey!!!), grey ground textures by apron floodlights. So then I loaded up the airport in DX9 = beautiful scenery but test flight arriving at EFHK resulted in OOM. And I didn't really want to go back to DX9 because DX10 experience is smooth & stable. Then I bought and installed Steve's payware DX10 Scenery Fixer from flightsimstore. Installed its libraries…

Greetings, I just installed the DX 10 fixer and for some odd reason, buildings are still grey and some vehicles too. Am I missing something? Best regards, Rene

I've more or less pronounced jaggies and shimmer in the VC which in a extreme case show like this https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/107475530/Mon%20film.mp4 Is it something I should expect (if not accept) or is there any remedy to it ? I must add that I'm a bit confused by the "falloff angle", "surface bias" and the like :smile: and my trials and errors experiments have been so far fruitless. Using version 2 of Steve' fixer with improved shadows checked. Thanks.

I am getting a strange lights issue in dx10 with any a/c. There seems to be a radius around the a/c where the RevolutionX lights are suppressed. Further, the lights try to come back when the a/c position moves, as if FSX is trying to draw the lights as autogen continually but they are suppressed. This results in continuous lights in the distance but flashing 'waves' of lights immediately around the a/c. The lights are displayed perfectly in dx9. Steves fixer is installed and varied settings appear to have no effect on the observed conditions. Tried to put a screenshot up but avsim wont let me link to my photobucket account :( direct link... http://i1093.p…

Upgraded my PC few days ago. Was on Q9505 @ 3.5ghz, now on i7 i3770k @4.5ghz. Clean Win7 install, clean FSX install. Installed Deluxe version, than Acceleration. I've done the testing on vanilla FSX, no FTXG, no AI, no vector, no textures, just C172 sitting on runway 26L on EDDM. With Q9505 I had around 90fps in that test situation, in DX9. After the upgrade, and crews OS and FSX install FPS is around 190 (whoah!). Installed DX10 Fixer and libraries, loaded FSX, same test situation, and FPS is around 85! What the...? Tested without Vidia Inspector and any add-on. Maybe some option in The Fixer is affecting FPS? I disabled new transparency options in The Fixer tha…

Hi, I have DX10 setup nicely, FPS & smoothness seems to be much better with frame rate unlimited (60+ Flytampa OMDB heavy weather, PMDG 777) I checked all my addon scenery and all is great except one airport. 'Aerosoft LIME' At this one airport FPS is at 60 except when sitting on the runway, it drops to 9fps. The actual airport displays correctly like all the others. Have flown many times to LIME with DX9 without issues. Btw, turning on Bloom increases my FPS further?? Is that because my Titan is now doing all the work in DX10? Thanks

Hello, I have a strange problem: I have two monitors, on the second one I have FSX in windowed mode. But it seems that AA isn´t active. It only appears to be active when I move FSX over to the main display. What can I do to fix this problem? Thanks a lot!

Hi, Tried to download DX10 testing pics and setting from Paul J signature, but without success. Could someone to share it?

Hi All, I just purchased the DX10 fixer and installed everything by the book . DX9 was actually running very well, I changed because of some texture flashing due to water settings & and all the rave reviews about DX10. Here is my problem - If I try to undock the PMDG 777 FMC/EICAS radio panel & MCP to my second screen FSX now goes down to 9 FPS from 30! Also nothing is clickable on the second screen. DX9 frames remain at 30fps in the same situation. Is something wrong with my setup or is this a DX10 limitation? Complete waste of time and money if it is a limitation. Does anyone else run a multi screen home cockpit setup with DX10? Cheers

Normally i am a FSX windowedmode user but when flying VFR i have tried with fullscreen. But i seem to have way lower FPS using 1/2 refreshrate in NI. This is with drivers 335.23. I dont recall having this with the older drivers but again i am not so experienced in fullscreen. Anyone who can confirm the loss of FPS (but still smooth) I think Vsync is cutting in half Michael

Maybe this is old news but I didn't know about this and it had me a bit confused before I understood what was happening. It started with I was going through my fsx.cfg file to check a couple of things and I then discovered 2 entries for my display adapter instead of the usual single entry. I had these [DISPLAY.Device.NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN.0] Mode=1920x1080x32 Anisotropic=1 AntiAlias=1 [DISPLAY.Device.NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN.0.0] Mode=1920x1080x32 Anisotropic=1 AntiAlias=1 To me the second one called 0.0 felt like a double entry for the exact same graphics card so I decided to remove it. Next time I started FSX it looked like crap and I had lost all my AA …

hello! I have this PC: i7 2600k @ 4,6Ghz 8GB RAM EVGA GTX770 4GB SC I have the AA in the Fixer at 8xCSAA Nvidia Inspector with the settings in the How-To at 4xSGSS If i put the FPS locked at 30 and 1/2 Refresh Rate, o get worse FPS that unlimited and less smooth. But if i put unlimited i think vsync don't work properly. What i need to change? My cfg: http://pastebin.com/gXPyAT0u Thanks EDIT: With these settings, but with FPS UNLOCKED i have very good results. About 30fps with complex aircraft and payware scenery, and ASN active even in ground and air. Vsync working. But if i lock FPS to 30, i have worse FPS, in ground ab…

First of all, i'm long time user of Steve great Fixer, and i could neme myself as a happy customer indeed. At the moment almost all issues with DX10 solved for me with help which i gained on Steve blog and Avsim. And manual was read thoroughly. As i'm using Vatsim almost always for my flight visibility of nav lights of traffic planes very important for me. If you choose to switch ON DX10 Compatible Lights then your Effects will be scanned, modified and after that all lights in FSX will be in perfect shape and visibility except nav lights of traffic planes - it's going to be invisible at short distance and certain angles. Ok, as per manal, i'm switching DX10 Compatib…

Hi Guys Does anyone know of any solution to the issue of black blocks coming out of light poles, instead of lights? I notice this at Aerosoft Zurich and Larnaca. Thanks all

I have no concerns, Al: I'm using it and have had no issues. I did a custom install (as always) - just the driver and PhysX. All the Best, pj

Here is a quick and dirty video to demonstrate that EVEN an old rig such as mine can perform decently using the guides and advice offered here at AVSIM!! A couple of things. There are some areas of chop that are not there in my machine, I think that is there from the minor drag of the video capture and music all running with FSXX as well. If anyone wants (someone with an older rig as well) let me know I can post my FSX.CFG and my sliders page too. Everything here was set up per the guides (FSX Basic Setup, and DX10 setup) Then adjusted in sim through testing which Paul does a GREAT job of showing how to do. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRgadu9bUjE&a…

Ok, I followed the how to guide. I have Steve's scenery fixer version 2.0. I have a GTX680 4GB single card. I have found frames are slightly lower than in dx9. I have NI setup per the DX10 guide. I am using SGSS at x4. Other than pulling that back to x2, anything else that users have found that is a big frame hog in dx10?

Hi, after installing DX10 Steve's Fixer, I don't have wet ground effect (on aprons, runways, etc) while raining weather. I have REX4 textures. Problem exist at day and night. Is it possible to see it back? How to do this? I'll be grateful for your replies. If you need more info about my settings, CFG's, etc. - please ask... Regards, Lucas

Hello: A few uf us ASN users are having issues with black flashes in high level clouds when using SGSS above 2x. Not using SGSS or turning down to 2x makes other things appear jittery. Can we get an option in the Fixer cloud shader to reduce or discard Sparse Grid Super Sampling on the clouds in the next release?? I notice that there is already and option for Super-Sampling AA (SSAA). Thanks, Scott

Hi All, I'm getting loads of black squares / blocks in place of where buildings should be. Is there a fix for this yet? TIA Daz I should have added that I'm using FTX global if that makes a difference

First off I love the dx10 fixer I have seen a huge increase in fps. I have read the dx-10 document and installed direct3doverrider however any time I resize my fmc ect on my second monitor I get a neverending hourglass. Is the direct3doverrider suppose to fix this or is this an ongoing issue that hasn't been solved yet? thanks

Guys,recently I've purchased the Steve directx 10 fixer,it was amazing at the beginning,the aa has reduce 99% of shimmering.But I am currently experiencing some issue and it is when I start my sim,it shows black screen with the mouse pointer,the aircraft's engines are running but everything's just black.When I switch to dx9 using the Steve dx10 fixer,everything become normal again.Could anyone teach me how to fix this?Thank You

Hello, I have troubles with the UK2000 Leeds-Bradford scenery You can also read here: http://www.uk2000scenery.org/forum/index.php?topic=7701.msg53715#msg53715 DX10 DX9 Do you have an idea what is going on here?

Do you have "DisablePreload=1" in the [Main] section of the fsx.cfg, Joe? B) All the Best, pj
