« on: March 29, 2013, 03:00:14 am »
Hi Im finding really hard to see the runway when im landing,not even when im just around 2nm i see it,the only reason i know the runway is there its becausae of the pappi lights because if it wasnt for that i wouldnt have a clue.
How can i fix this problem?

It's not a problem of the scenery, but a problem with your video card settings, and this will affect any scenery with fully-custom runway textures.

Use the following settings on your video card control panel:

- Set Anisotropic filter to Override any application setting

- Set the filter to 8x or 16x

- Set antialiasing to Override any application setting and set it to 2x at least, 4x it's better

It's not possible that it wouldn't work, so you must have done it wrong. Be sure to select the option to override (enhance) the application settings.

Of course, I assuming you are using 4K textures, which is what the installer defaults to, otherwise you'll see the scenery at less resolution it was designed for. If you are not sure of it, check the Addon Manager settings, and be sure that 4K textures are enabled.

Are you using ONLY an Intel graphic card ? Don't you have a separate card, like an nVidia or AMD ?

Then I'm not sure how that option is called, or be found, or that even works. Found this thread:

https://communities.intel.com/thread/75330

Which seems to indicate Anisotropic filtering doesn't really work on Intel cards.
