Contrast is set to 1.4 and gamma to 0.6 through a custom colour/shade modifier (though CCC or Nvidia control panel will do the same job) .

(I have a bright, 8bit monitor).

The game looks quite nice on these settings, keep in mind contrast and gamma are exponential differences in my program.
mh thats interesting and definitely worth a try, as i get really poor fps with meshshowlod=1!
i remember i also tried to put other values than 1 into meshshowlod line....but i think i gave up before i entered 8....

why do you adjusted your conf.ini in your steam folder and not in the 1c one?

EDIT: ok i just tried it....if i put meshshowlod=8 into th steam conf.ini,...there is no change in visibility, and planes still disappear
if i adjust the 1c conf.ini,.....then the planes dont disappear anymore, and fps seem to be as good as with meshshowlod=0,....but then i have no cockpit visible anymore, and can see partly through the remaining textures of my plane...

but the game doesnt accept meshshowlod=8, cause when i quit the game, and opened the conf.ini, it was reset to meshshowlod=6
