I tried it and it looked worse. AA did not work either. I also tried changing MSAA=0 in the config and that was a fail too. AA and AF are just porked n this sim.

The old IL-2 was made and optimized for OpenGL, Cliffs of Dover was made and (slightly) optimized for DirectX.

Besides, DirectX is the better one of the two.

well i beg to differ there on that, opengl has better depth in 3d than does Direct X

30% of FPS hit on my system. AA works at some extend, no more jaggies at close distance except for wires. I tried on the Spitfire default track (not in a real mission) and the Spit mirror doesn't work on the track. The ATI horizon bug seem to not occur using OpenGL.

Regards.

This makes me wonder if theres a way to force DX9 mode instead of DX10?

Edit: tried changing the value to D3D9 and it worked (verified via EVGA precision that it was indeed in DX9 mode)

On my system all it does is revert to DX9 ( at least thats the mode EVGA precision says its running in)


Don't think this works.
