DX-10 Discussions, Hints and Help

Hello everyone, To start, I am a total noob when it comes to proper set-up and performance in FSX. I want to use DX10 primarily because I see large benefits in FPS. I still feel like my performance is nowhere near the level I should be with my new computer. I know it is asking a lot, and I apologize if I am breaking any protocols, but could someone look at my config, and my system specs on my profile and offer a tweak? I am able to get UTX, GEX, and REX to run without issue, I see those take effect in game. I have tried to do the shader 3.0 fix, the flashing runway fix, and some other minor tweaking found via the tools online, but I never see any results changes when…

I've always wanted to use DX10 but a month ago or so I found this forum which has greatly helped me get it. When I had it all set (shader, nvidia inspector, CPU and GPU overclok , patches etc) I started noticing microstutter and some times stutters. Here begins the story of fear: Testing, more forums, testing more forums. So much has been complicated it that, two days, ago I had lost the ability to switch to DX10. More forums, more tests. But the option has disappeared from my FSX. When I was deciding to reinstall everything from scratch I decided to make the last flight before. And what is my surprise that the frames are high, the clouds full, the sliders to full. I h…

Hi, I have just enabled dx10 in FSX and would like the respective nvidia inspector settings please I have trilinear and AA ticked in FSX My PC... I7-920 4.2ghz 6gb corsair vengeance Gainward gtx 660 golden sample Corsair force 60gb ssd x2 (is and FAX) Many thanks

My experience with "this new version" of FSX Gold is summing up only positive points! Until now I have been able to get allways between 25 and 30 fps, even on dense scenery areas and using an external weather injector, with most settings in FSX set to full right. Patching scenery and aircraft lights, applying the "rain fix", all as per the guide at the top of this forum, and the help provided via PM by Jim, all contributed to the minimum effort I had migrating to FSX DX10, and the outcome is so positive that I wonder how much I've been missing whenever I installed FSX in the past. My only problem now is trying to control myself from deciding to buy a few add-o…

Hello, I have been following the tutorial to shift to DX10 : - backup the FSX files (cfg....) - Install the latest shaders - config both FSX and Nvidia Inspector - REX with DX10 optimized textures The results were OK in term of performance and AA.... but everytime I shift to the VC view, I got the blue splash screen for 2 seconds which is very annoying + I got pink walls on TNCM for example and black squares randomely over the water.... Then i decided to revert to DX9 doing : - a restore of my backed up FSX files (fsx.cfg....) - changing REX to non DX10 textures. So I have 2 questions : 1- did I do what's necessary to revert to DX9 or dis I miss …

Guys, I am back in DX-10 team thanks to PJ. Thanks to Paul I have just performed first GA flight in DX-10 since quite a few years. Since the weather is pretty in DX-10, I've picked Cessna BirdDog on floats. Two issues was discovered: - TrackIR (via EZdok Camera) is pretty laggy from time to time - I have not seen it in DX-9 never ever. I think it happens when there is a high demand on the system, but it is too early to confirm. I move my physical head from left to right, my pilot is following about 1/3 second later. - fraps is compatible with DX-10 AFAIK. I cannot see thi nice big numbers which most of us is chasing for Have You ever seen this? I can live with…

people once again need your help what happens next in flight load distant stage, or distant vision scenario is very diffuse and not well detailed. What you're missing on FSX.CFG? or perhaps in fsx options? :blink: :blink: attach several images to demonstrate Thanks again!!!!!!!!!!1

Hello, I think I've correctly performed all the instructions under "How-to" (http://library.avsim...ader&CatID=root.Stock ShadersHLSJ folder here: Finally, the link "settings DX10 testing pics and here" seems broken (blank page) ... Maybe this is a problem of understanding the guidelines? Can you help me? thank you,

First of, I have to state that I never experienced an OOM or CTD in win7 64 bit, both with FSX dx9 and now dx10. Yet, after having decided to try the AirbusX from Aerosoft, I was reading accross their forums and found this application which, supposedly avoids problems when 32 bit apps try to access higher addresses. The link to the app site is : http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/showthread.php?t=112556

Don't have direct x 10 active and I'm interested in any real experience feedback and general tips. Thanks in advance! Whoops! wrong forum, sorry

I am going to apologize up front for asking this question, but I have tried everything (including contacting Friendly Panels). Friendly Panels "answer" was DX is a "preview" and we do not support it! I want to thank Steve Parsons (and others) again for all their work on DX10. I have installed tested and reinstalled V3.2.2 patches, and I still cannot find a solution. I am going to provide links for 4 pictures on my King Air 350 wing tip navigation lights, two with DX and two without DX on. I will also include here the aircraft.cfg changes related to lighting. These are the changes I made to aircraft.cfg: Default King Air which Friendly Panels builds from: [LIGHTS] //T…

Do you know if the PC-12, from Flight1, FSX version, will run in DX10 compat mode? I also queried about the ATR72-500, but although I didn't get any answer, reading through a few posts revealed that this one should be compatible at all, not even with SP2, I believe...

Hi all. I made the switch to DX10 a few months back after a fresh install and its been fine so far. With the exception of flytampa's KBOS at night. Now i recently installed latinvfr SCEL and it is not working properly during the day or night. I get ground textures changing as i taxi and water in the inbetweens of taxiways and rwys etc. I tried removing the scenery from the library and now have lost the entire terminal. Is there a way to get my default scenery back without having to do a fresh install of fsx? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Hello Are the DX10 modifications breaking the FSX EULA ? Specifically these sections work around any technical limitations in the software; reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the software, except and only to the extent that applicable law expressly permits, despite this limitation; Just asking

Per the title, version 314.14, plus a new, (also beta) version of Inspector is out, too - reported as "1.97" instead of the more usual "1.9.7.x" at the top of the Inspector opening screen. Both with changes accounting for the new hardware - the GK 110 - just released, and the GTX 690. As usual, too, Nvidia claims the driver adds anywhere up to a 20%+ improvement in all games... (but with no mention of FSX...... ) Two unusual happenings - 1). the driver installation didn't force a restart (I don't install all the components, but it has always done so in the past) and 2). Inspector opened showing the overclocking screen as default.

Yesterday I decided to jump into the DX10 World. Searching across this forum certainly helped, and Jim's PM even more - thanks a LOT Jim! I am now enjoying the benefits and Whows!!! of running FSX Gold under DX10 compat mode. It really makes a difference !!! So far no problems with textures, other than the Aerosoft Megaairports Heathrow, which I promptly uninstalled because the default one that comes with FSx Gold is more than sufficient to keep me satisfied :-) Madeira and Lukla, also from Aerosoft, are fully compatible and I kept them. I have just a couple of add-on aircraft and a weather injection program so, no incompatibilities and smooth / crisp gra…

While I'm satisfied with the Asus HD7870 with Catalyst for most of the flights, it has a problem with heavy overcast clouds. A lot of stuttering especially taxis in turns and some stuttering climbing to altitude in and around the clouds. Clear days pose no problems. A minor stutter here and there but nothing major. I have tried everything I can think of the alleviate this annoying problem. REX cloud textures are at 1024x1024. I have also tried the HDEv2 textures. Same results. I've been reading that the AMD cards may or may not have a problem with clouds in FSX. I can normally figure this stuff out but I need to ask for opinions on a replacement graphic card or opinio…

Hi, People will be able to help me? I use rex when i put a little of cloud´s i have jumps on the video or low fps, :angry: :angry: In the rex i have the next config ir you lock the image. In the Fsx config i have the low options for wheater Mi Grapics gard Ati HD 6770. Thanks for your help!!!!...............

I have been having good luck using the Inspector frame limiter set to 30 and frames set to unlimited in FSX. I could not do this in DX9 due to frame fluctuations. Seems much more stable in DX10 and gives me a 4-5 fps boost. Give it a try and hopefully it works for u.

Looks great apart from Cardiff airport where there is some non-Dx10 compatible grass. The directive is to disable grass in the airport control panel.

Hi, i have the next problem... :angry: I some airports not all, the landing or taxi laight not seen good or not they look great. attached a picture. they will have a solution? :rolleyes: I usually use the PMDG 737-800 or Airbus x Hopefully you can help me with this problem sometimes also in some airplanes do not see the taxi lights or landing

Hi all could someone direct me to a fix for DX10 please, What I have to do to make it work and where do I download the files from, as I've heard there has been great inroads to making this operative. Thanks in advance. Cheers Rod.

Greetings all, recently did the tweaks and updates to run DX10 as posted on this forum. However I did some low level flying just now and realized that my water textures seem to be almost pixelated or low quality. Here is a shot to explain: I've seen pictures such as these two that show a noticeable difference in quality. I am running REX as well. Any help would be appreciated.

First at all, Hi and many thanks for that very good dx10 tutorials! Didnt think there would be a way to use dx10 after all this years of tweaking, but i tried all your tips and have to say very very nice and smooth goin in fsx. Would be my favourit but... seems fsaa enhancement with NI doesnt work at all with (my?) Nvidia gtx260 card in dx10. In dx9 it does what it should. Tested nearly all combinations of FSAA, SGSAA, enhance/override, Profiles, ingame fssaa on/off etc. No reaction with dx10 in fsx at all! Only the built in fsaa of fsx is working which isnt that bad, but the shimmering of the trees and in the cockpit is terrible and makes it useles…

Hi, followed the guide, but having some issues: First, I use 2 GTX 580 in SLi, and have 2 monitors, a 30 inch and a 19 inch. No probs in DX9 mode, but in DX10, FSX runs on the smaller screen. I cant figure out why. I tried remming out details of the 2nd monitor in the .cfg file but did not help. Here is a link to my .cfg file: http://www.mediafire.com/?l04xbdmmulkru92 ( The widget would not let me upload for some reason....) Second issue: I dont seem to have any AA working ? - Again, followed trhe settings as advised in the giude. I use NVinspector in DX9, so the its presumably starting when FSX runs, as I linked the proflie to the .exe but it seems to make no …
