The Official DX10 Scenery Fixer Support Forum

Since I installed the fixer a month ago flying during the day is good. Flying at night in and out of airports, the runway lights are pretty bad. I use mostly large payware airports. Is there any way to fix this? Paul

My FSX rain on windshield when aircraft is moving looks bad. To use DX10 rain, do I have to turn off FSX rain? If so, how? Thanks, zach

hey guys.. So as the topic says, can i use 2xSGSS along with 8xCSAA antialiasing setting? hy i have this doubt is because, as per the table given in user manual, with 8xCSAA, 4xSGSS is told to be used, but instead if i use 2xSGSS, will that cause any issue?? i want to save some performance is heavy cloud situations. Also another thing i noticed is, the Sun appears as 2 in some wing view angles! Is this normal?? thanking you govind

Dear All; Im having some issues with the Diagnostic function. It keeps giving me warning about NUM LIGHTS is set less than 8 in the config. In my cfg they are set to 8. I am using FSX SE, WIn7 64bit. Anyone here had any issues with this before? Any known solutions? Many Thanks, PS. Just noticed: It also tells me that my Texture Max load is 1024 or less; even though, its set to 2048.

Hi Steve, As the title says, I'm looking for a way to get darker water, ocean water, to be specific. My current settings in the fixer are Sky Reflection min and max are at 5% and Ambient Light is at the minimum, 75%. The issue is that the water base color is still too light, and too blue to accurately appear as Atlantic Ocean water. Is it feasible to have a wider range for the Ambient Light slider, or, as an alternative, are there any settings I could change myself? Thanks, Jay

Steve, my FSX has now been happily running in DX10 mode for some time using your Fixer, with various options selected in the Fixer sections, such as V2.0 Transparency logic ticked in the Legacy section and so on. Yesterday I installed a new addon airport and for reasons that I don't quite understand when I launched the Fixer to check and convert the effects that were installed with such new airport I noticed that the Fixer had switched to DX9. I switched back to DX10, and my questions is: when I switch back to DX10 do I have to "apply" again all the formerly selected options in the various Fixer sections (i.e., clicking "Apply" in every section) or if the options are ti…

Hi Steve. I've been playing around with Fixer 2.9... overall results are very good. Thanks for the development. However, I noticed an issue while flying over the ocean yesterday. I took off from TBPB and during the climb my FPS was around 30 below 10,000 ft when looking outside from the cockpit, or from an outside camera (Spot, Locked spot). When I was above 20,000 ft, my FPS gradually decresed until I established 38,000 ft and my FPS was around 18. Oddly, this performance lost ONLY occurred if I had an ocean-sky horizon in my field of view. if I looked slighty up (so I'd see just sky) ou slightly down (so I could see only land or water), my FPS got back t…

hey guys.. So after installing steve's dx10 fixer..everything is great..the ground shadows..other fixes etc..however i noticed 2 discrepancies. 1. The VC shadow's edges are flickering. May i know why this might be due to? 2. I see a top ceiling issue as shown in the image given below. May i know what is causing this? The sky above appears to be like a darker hole. 3. Is it possible to use steve's dx10 fixer with SGSS set to none in NVI? Am i loosing anything sue to this? Currently i have set AA in steve's fixer to 8xCSAA with 4x SGSS set in NVI. thankign you govind

I already started a thread in the DX10 forum but it explains the problem pretty well http://www.avsim.com/topic/474513-dx10-anti-aliasing-keeps-resetting/#entry3293553

I've had FSX since it came out and all the predecessors to it. Using Win7 Prof here with tons of add-ons collected over the years. Since I have fully implemented you DX10 Scenery Fixer, my frame rates at 50% better and my simulator has never looked so good nor ran so well. Thank you, Steve, for this wonderful experience.

With the "8bit Texture Fix" ticked, the Realair Lancair Legacy's VC instrument panel doesn't display correctly. Here's a screenshot: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/25038678/Screenshot_1.jpg Please, does anyone have an explanation for this, or, better still, a solution to the problem? Steve

Hey Steve, For some reason DX10 is not picking up my sceneries after I installed some new airports. Is there a way to do it manually force the app to scan the sceneries to see if anything needs conversion. Thanks,

Hi Steve, I have stumbled across this software (looks like very similar to ENB) http:\\reshade.me, and I have seen some FSX screenshots (DX9) that look very promising. The manual claims it is DX10 compatible. I haven't tested it yet but I'd like to know if you are aware of it and have you ever tested with your Fixer. Thanks Regards Ezio

Hi Steve, I am a little bit confused: in the mail from FSS I got, the update process is listed comparable to the old one: remove libraries, uninstall DX10 Fixer, reboot, reinstall Fixer and then reinstall libraries. The last updates I did as you recommend here, I simply ran the installer and updated the libraries. Which one is now correct for the 2.9 release? Thanks for the help

Hi Steve, this new option is working well :smile: and is a further step to realism. Is the distance related % wise to a e.g. a given LOD distance? A further possibility would be nice to adjust in % or real distance value to start twinkling. Wulf

Hi Steve, I have a small question. 1. It's all about the multisampling. I am using an Nvidia GTX 970. What value for multisampling is best to use. I kan use of 8xCSAA to 32x everything. The frames are always the same but the load of FSX will take longer. What will change the high multisampling. I can not tell the difference between 8x and large 32x. I use the Inspector with the best DX 10 settings (i hope) 2. My AI Planes (UT2) who shockwave lights illuminate the landing approach Very strong bloom. Only the view from the cockpit. I have tried everything in lights. (Shockwave) Without Your Fixer I could no longer fly. thanks Frank from EDDM

Hi guys, This issue is driving me mad, I have fixed most issues after switching DX10 but this alludes me. I have copied my post from the UK2000 forum. I recently took the plunge and installed Steve's DX10 fixer. Whilst I was a little apprehensive to say the least I have overcome most issues and got a really stable build of FSX. One issue I can't shake is this, I have UK2000 Manchester and Heathrow airports installed. In DX9 everything was fine, since the switch both airports constantly flicker (that's the best way I can describe it). it seems all the textures have this weird flicker and it's really annoying. I've browsed the UK2000 forums but can't see a mention…

Even with the update to DX10 Fixer vers. 2.9 my FSX starts with in low resolution of 1280x800x32, no AA and Bilinear. When I change the resolution to i.e. 1650x1050x32 with AA + Bilinear the FSX stopps after some time with a severe problem! Sometimes sooner sometimes later. I have not set up the DX10 Fixer settings - it's all standard. System I7-3770K, 8GB 1600 RAM, Nvidia 650 Ti, C Drive: SSD 250GB,FSX on SSD 500 GB, Windows 7 Home Any suggestions? Leci

Could someone please explain the purpose of the ClipMode=Minimum tweak that some recommend be added to the FSX Camera.cfg file, and is this tweak reccomended for use in DX10 with the Scenery Fixer? Thanks, Al

Hi, I've asked the question on the developer's forum but haven't received a response so I'm trying here too. I'm using the Prosim 737 v2 aircraft model and have scanned the effects folder with DX10 fixer however the landing lights show as black cones wherever they illuminate. Does anyone have any suggestions or advice on how to resolve this please?

Hi. i installed DX10 fixer about a month back and it worked fine. That's when I am still using FSX Gold edition and DX10. Now I have installed FSX-SE (still using DX10) and uninstalled FSX Gold, I cant get the option buttons to work. They are all greyed out except for Legacy and Lights/Effects. Went to Debug - all shader boxes are unticked and greyed out so i cant tick them. Tried to do an uninstall of DX10 fixer and then to reinstall but cant because cant uninstall libraries. Got error message 3 when tried to do so. If anyone can help mush appreciated Kind regards Peter yeong

Hi Steve, at first thanks for the DX10 fixer update V2.9 which I use for my FSX DVD version. The lights at PAKT are only visible if the A/C landing ligths are switched on. The trick with the PAKT_lightfield.bgl surprisingly does not work. I´m not sure if this is related to the updated fixer. I checked a couple of other ORBX airports but there it´s all ok; also no warnings for effects files to be converted.... Has the vertical PAKT_lightfield position to do with it as the Orbx PAKT airport scenery is partially elevated including sloping taxiways? Any other knob to toggle (moving legacy slider does not help)? Wulf

Hi Everyone.. I just purchased the CaptainSim 777 recently and have been running with Steve's DX10 fixes.. In the VC, when i look out straight, everything in the cockpit is very dark/poorly lit. As I turn my head using EZDOK, things start to light up and shadows move, etc.. but I move my head back to pilot position, all shadows converge on the panel and whole cockpit gets dark (regardless of where the sun is relative to aircraft). When I move out of the VC, i see that there is a black capsule that surrounds the VC in CaptainSim 777. May be this is causing the problem? I read on their website that their 777 is supposed to be DX10 compatible.

Do I have to select dx 10 preview since I'm now running windows 10? I do have the dx10 fixer installed and running and have dx10 preview selected in fsx. When I had windows 7 I just used dx9.
