DX-10 Discussions, Hints and Help

after installment I notice that fsinn works in windows mode but after full screen its a black screen is this due to dx 10?

Hi All, I am new to using SweetFX & the AVSIM forums and am having two issues. I use DX9 and wasn't sure where to post this issue (knowing that the area is for DX10) 1) In full screen mode I get a bright splash (See screen shot below) on the screen when changing cameras. Currently I only get this problem with the PMDG 737NGX. I have tried default airplanes and that dosent have this problem. 2) FSX would randomly have a get a CTD (no error) just disappears. Regards Asad

Dear Paul, For some unknown reason i do not have access to files in locked post "How to".. Every time i try to open link have error message. is there any other way to get to those files ?

I am for sure staying with DX10. With airports like Vancouver by FSDT FSX has just gone better and better. These new patches for DX10 is so good that performance is so smooth. I only missing some ENB bloom as i have undocked screens over 3monitors Michael Moe

Hello all, I'm running FSX with DirectX 10 with aome of the modifications listed on the "How-to" doc, plus with the UIAutomationCore.dll placed on the FSX root folder, and with the sliders tuned down as per this post: http://forum.avsim.net/topic/403943-maiden-flight-in-dx10-and-pc-crashed/ With all that done (I believe I have more hours tuning FSX than actually flying it), the sim is running beautiful and smooth, until I get to 30 minutes of flight. I was going from Skagit Regional to Seattle International in a Carenado's C152, when the screen went black with the sound running on the background. Maybe it has to do with my bad habit of checking the map and the…

Hi all. I've read most of the posts/topics. I see quite interesting things. Just installed my whole windows and fsx again, all fresh. FSX is running almost perfectly, and what a stunning IQ gives DX10 :=) But like most of the dx10 users overhere im also getting tears and stutters, I know for sure it is because of the function in Nvidia inspector which isnt working like it worked in DX9 Standard 1/2 screen refresh rate. Ive an 120hz monitor so I got already minimal tears but I have stutters because the vsync options doenst lock it what it should need to do. (I use the 1/4 screen refresh rate options which worked just like the 1/2 for 60 hz screens) …

Hi, I revisited DX10 mode of FSX Gold after having digressed into LM prepar3d for a while. I confess I like P3D more than I do FSX Gold default scenery (landclass and even mesh), but time showed me that the advantages I was seing in terms of performance / stuttering were somehow placebo, and I can get the same with FSX Gold. Why did I return? Well, because although the Estonisn Migration Tool does wonders, there are still a couple of glitches, namely with an add-on - CumulusX! - that I like to use and produces rather weird effects in P3D. The author might consider a P3D version, but not right now, so, back to FSX Gold. The forst thing I did on my re-instal…

Hi. Don`t think I had this last time I tried DX10. I`ve reinstalled Shockwave Redux and it still doesn`t work well. (dissappears in various views). Now I have floating runway lights. Not sure if these are connected? Eddie

Wanted to know if the new service pack 2 for Active Sky 2012 has dx10 compatible clouds. Anybody knows?

Hi guys, I still can't get the lights to work properly on my default aircrafts and PMDG MD-11 in DX10. The only other payware aircraft I installed where the lights work fine is the CLS MD80. I'm thinking about trying the payware shockwave 3d lights. Will they work in DX10? Also, are they easy to install into 3rd party aircrafts? I'm hoping this will fix my lighting problem in DX10 because as I understand it from the description, it replaces the lights. Doesn't look like it modifies the current ones.

Hello Guys, one Question only: the Logo, Strobe and Beacon Lights dissapears in DX10. What should I do to solve this issue? The Strobe works partially, but non satisfying. I use the latest Shaders, all other works fine. So far. Thanks a Lot Trinco

DX9 is running pretty good and stable but I'm at the point now where I think I'd like to try out DX10. I've been doing my homework and reading the stickied posts along with the DX10 section of the AVSIM FSX Guide. Before I go any further though I just have a few questions I was hoping someone might be able to fill me in on... Will doing all the "stuff" for DX10 listed in the AVSIM guide and stickied here on AVSIM permanently change my FSX installation? If I save off my current FSX.cfg Will I be able to go back and forth to my current DX9 and DX10 at will? Or does DX10 and all of the fixes described in the stickied posts and AVSIM guide permanently alter or change …

Hi everyone, Slowly working my way through Paul's excellent tuning document, specifically the DX10 part. Have set up the basics as far as page 21 and am now test-flying. Have started to notice several graphical anomalies, some of which are new and some of which were there in DX9 mode. Would really appreciate some help or pointers on where the root causes are likely to be. I've attached some screenshots at this link to help illustrate the problems. Brief description of each below: I'm using ORBX PNW and test flying from Anacortes (ORBX payware) in Alabeo Extra 300 and RealAir Duke B60. Also using REX 2.0 Essentials and EzDok Camera. Pic 1 & 2: Have…

Hi. Can anyone tell what files to delete to get the red squares away from scenerys made by Flytampa? Dubai is first priority. Thanks Michael Moe

I've gone from an amd 5850 card to an evga ftw 670 2GB card. On my old 5850 I had this same issue, where in that case, if using CCC and setting AA settings, I really would see no change in FSX at all.. flash forward to the FTW 670, same deal. I'm out of ideas as i've tried just about everything. I've gone through the dx10 how to guide, ran the shader updates etc.. I'm using nvidia driver 314.22 and Nvidia Inspector 1.97.1.. here are the inspector settings i'm using and the fsx.cfg file as well. I have AA checked in FSX and Anisotropic set as well (its my understanding that at least for dx10 mode, AA needs to be checked in FSX, but in dx9 mode, this isnt true…

Hi everybody, I have tried DX 10 but my settings are giving blurry images so I reverted to DX 9. Does anybody has a Radeon HD 6800 with well working setting? Your help would be appreciated. Thanks Pierre HPE-430 Intel i7 CPU 870 @ 2.93 Ghz RAM : 4 Mo AMD Radeon Sapphire HD 6800 series

What I mean, is a suggestion that those users that are exclusively running FSX under the DX10 preview mode, might put together a post that gives all the 'required' tweaks, files, etc in one place, so those like myself, that would check it out, could bring a DX10 session up to speed. I know that the water (when I tried it at an earlier time) color is off, and that there is some tweak/fix for that, etc. So, how about it guy 'n gals? Can anybody running solid with it step up to the posting plate?

DX10 is catching on!!! Orbx's free CEJ4 Claresholm Industrial Airport has been updated with DX10 objects now. http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/57846-cej4-claresholm-industrial-freeware-updated/ Enjoy!!!

I have Ultimate Traffic 2 and I have added a whole bunch of WOAI AI aircrafts to it. I noticed something strange in DX10 When the AI aircrafts are parked at the gates, it has its skin. e,g. at KDFW, many of the AI has AA skin But when the AI pulls out of the gate, it becomes white... it loses the AA livery and its all plain white I then followed one of the AI that landed...it was all white ofcourse...but after it pulled into one of the gates and when its lights went out, it got its AA skin back. Whats up with that? Any remedy for this ailment?

Just a heads-up for anyone who has installed the NVIDIA 314.22 driver... after installed it for my GTX660, I started experiencing "screen freeze with sound" lockups with FSX. Occurs primarily when in full screen mode (only happened once when 'windowed') and seemed to be related to the complexity of the 'goings on' and length of the flight. I tried everything to troubleshoot the problem without success until I rolled back my GPU driver to the 310.90 release. No freezes since. It's early, but I think that 314.22 driver has an issue under FSX.

I have maam dc 3 which is not compateble with dx10. is there a fix for?

Hi, i have a little problem, sometimes my landing lights are flashing, and it also happens with jet smokes but i noticed a weird think when i was cruising: if i switch on landing lights, they are flashing, but not the jet smokes. if i switch it off, jet smokes are flashing this also happens in some sceneries runways lights, like aerosoft eddm.

Hi all, I just started flying in DX10 and I'm loving it. I can have light bloom turned on, UTX night lights, etc and still get very smooth performance. I don't think I can fly in DX9 again lol. So far I have installed the patch that fixed main issues like flickering runway textures, etc. I noticed that my nav and strobe lights don't work shortly after take off. I've tested this on my PMDG MD-11 and default 747. If I view the aircraft from the front and back, the lights work, but when I view it from the side, it doesn't. I pasted the 7 files from the link on Paul J's "how to" guide into my effects folder but it didn't do anything. I made a backup of the e…

Hi. Just a slight issue. I`m running FSX with Antroscopic enabled and NVidea Inspector at default settings, as discussed in another topic. All my sliders are at FULL, which I think is astounding. The only downer, is the aircraft in view has some jagged lines, which I`d like improved, but when I tweak the NI, the aircraft looks better, but frames rates drop when flying through the clouds. The settings in NI are in another language to me. Can someone suggest a milder form of AA? Cheers Ian Edwards

Hello I'm very new to FSX so I would like to apologize for lack of knowledge ahead of time. I've been reading and absorbing for a month and finally built FSX computer. Issue that I came across is that when flying i keep seeing objects pop into the scene ahead of me. My fps is steady at 30. I'm using DX10 with shader fix and settings from DylanM's post here http://forum.avsim.net/topic/398670-interesting-observation-about-dx10-and-unlimited-frames/ I also have REX Essentials + Overdrive installed. Not sure if this is normal or not but wanted to check in with the pros on this issue. My specs are: ASRock Extreme 4 Z77 board Intel i7 3770k proc (No OC yet) …
