How about turning off CAPS LOCK and posting a screen shot?

 

Post your LOMAC graphic settings as well.

I have the same video card and the same vid drivers and I'm not seeing the problem you're having. I do get that problem when I run SLI in any other mode than split frame rendering. It's absolutely a driver issue. Have you removed your drivers properly? The correct procedure would be to remove thru your control panel, reboot into safe mode. Use Driver Cleaner Pro (google it, it's free). Reboot. Install drivers. Reboot.

Hello ruggbutt, thanks for the quick reply

 

I followed your procedure but still no joy. I did try this previously but I didn’t use driver cleaner in safe mode. I now know how to remove and install new drivers properly (thanks ruggbutt).

 

What I did do was to open up the NVIDIA control panel and changed a couple of settings.

 

I changed

 

Antialiasing - Mode to “OVERRIDE ANY APPLICATION SETTING”

 

Antialiasing - Setting to “2x”.

 

All seems to be working fine for now (apart from the shadows) but I can live without that. The clouds look GREAT now, they are so much better

 

Thanks Again

I'm using override and 4xAA/16xAF. I don't use more than 4xAA cuz it really makes the ground targets impossible to see. I don't take an fps hit from 8xAA though. :) I'm glad to see you got things working. :)

Try and use the Q settings. Example 4aa and 4xqaf. Should not have impact on FPS.You could go as high as 16xqaf don't use regular 4 or 8 or 16af got to have the Q.If you could tell me your CP setting, I might be able to suggest other settings to try and no FPS hits. I am using Nvidia 174.74. No problems. SLI is a Problem have to disable one.

I did some testing and I'm getting better FPS with SLI disabled.

Cheers ruggbutt - just wanted to say I'm a fan of your AARs over at Black Sheep. They inspired me to fly more Lomac and post up a screenshot series over at SimHQ that got a bit of interest. I directed people to your stuff as the real deal, so hopefully you'll have some more people appreciating your excellent AARs (/brown-nosing mode off).

 

cheers

I'm glad you like the AAR's. I just shot screens of the next two AAR's in line so I'm gonna work on putting those together in the next few days.

I have this problem on my 8800GS, how was this solved (besides enabling AA)?

 

That Simhq link is down and I really want to play my copy of lomac without issues =)

Chaps, I solved this 2D looking cloud problem quite simply - check out this thread - it may work for you.
