TBM850 Posted May 23, 2011 Report Posted May 23, 2011 Hello gentleman. Maybe my videocard is not good enough, but at night when I turn the Floodlight all the way up I can no longer read the ACFS lights. See 3 pics below 1. Flood Lighting Max 2. Flood Lighting minimum 3. Flood Lighting off.My Computer Specs are Computer: MacPro 2.8 GHZ 8 Core, 10 GB ram, ATI Radeon HD 2600 (256MB) and X-Plane graphic Settings are 1280 x 960 High Texture settings
Cameron Posted May 23, 2011 Report Posted May 23, 2011 Hi, there,Javier will be with you on this shortly!
Japo32 Posted May 23, 2011 Report Posted May 23, 2011 That is normal. Nothing can be done. I use transparent pixels to simulate text illumination. When Laminar gives us auto illumination masks then it will be much better but until then nothing can be done.
TBM850 Posted May 23, 2011 Author Report Posted May 23, 2011 Ok thank you very much for the reply Javier.
Japo32 Posted May 23, 2011 Report Posted May 23, 2011 Another thing... To see the textures and more propertly this text lights.. you have to set the higher texture resolution in rendering options. What rendering options does when lowering the resolution is blur pixels, so all are more blur, so the transparent fixels become not transparent because the closer ones.Of course reduce texture resolution in rendering options is good for those systems that are not so good, but you have to think that this plane was created for low systems.cheers,
TBM850 Posted May 23, 2011 Author Report Posted May 23, 2011 Hello Javier, makes sense. I am due for a graphics card update. These days a 256MB card is prehistoric like dinosaurs! Once I get a 1GB graphics card, I will be able to set the rendering options higher, this way the pixels won't blur as much as you stated and will allow to enjoy not only X-plane more but also FSX since I use both.
