Nvidia and AA ::SOLVED
 

Hi.


Having set all parameters as suggested in various threads I´ve found a great looking asetup for my Il-1946.

One problem though.. I can´t get the AA to work. I go into my 3D settings in my Nvidia menu and browse to my 1946 folder. When I select the Il2fb.exe, it becomes "Il Sturmovik Forgotten Battles and Ace expansion pack" in my Nvidia drop-down menu.

But any changes to this .exe will not be seen in the game....


(If I press ctrl+alt+del and get up the active processes, the active .exe is called il2fb.exe .... but whenever I chose this, it renames it to "Il Sturmovik Forgotten Battles..." in the Nvidia setup.....


Any clues here?

Why do you need Ace Expansion pack?

You mentioned you have IL2 -1946, which means you have the all inclusive CD of all of IL2 since it has been released.

You need 4.0x series patches to update IL2-1946

Yes, I used to have the FB+Aces+PF pack installed, but I uninstalled it... And still my Nvidia calls the Il2fb.exe (as named in my 1946 folder) "Forgotten Battles bla bla bla..."

Just use the global setup

"Override any application setting" is the key.

If you chose "enhance application setting" or any other option, FSAA won't be activated ingame.

Ok guys, I´ve turned off (to global) any setting in the Il-menu and set the global AA to override any app. and 8xQ mode. Still no luck... :confused:

Are you running a fresh installation or did you upgrade your drivers at any point?

If you didn't clean your registry from remains of previous driver-settings, it's possible that you will not be able to actually save your changes (even though it may look like it).

I recommend nHancer. You can download this tool for free and once installed you can override any setting, no matter if there is a conflict with older driver-settings or not. You can also fine-tune some options with quick access.

I recommend you don't install any 3rd party NV tools at the moment :)

These can cause more problems especially if there's a driver fault.

Post your IL2 1946 v409m conf. file contents here please .

Meanwhile download the latest NV driver and also Driver Sweeper

Use as per instructions and clean the driver up.

Install latest or preferred driver, then pop back here :)

Thanx for your input guys... The thing is, I´m a VERY frequent user of FS9, which is VERY sensitive to Nvidia driver updates.

I´d rather not update the drivers at the moment, since I´ve had tons of trouble with FS9 every time I´ve tried that... Current driver is 182.50

I´ve also tried to override stuff with Nhancer, but no luck there either..

Here´s the config..

Good idea to make a new account for this post.
