ATI and file conf IL2

SLEVIN · #1 09-10-2010, 01:42 AM

Hello, can someone help? I have a ATI 5870x2, with latest drivers 10.08.
OpenGL video settings by selecting the menu during the game I have a problem of AA on the ground. I see the islands and the coast have a defect zigzag and very ugly looking.
Can someone pass me a conf file already configured?
How can I fix this?
If I select DirectX can not apply AA to the texture of the aircraft.

Thanks

Hello Porksmuggler

Good knowledge and community help by you allover IL-2 sites

Reason for Wide-tent is i use supper sampling mod which makes transparrent textures look better but also kills FPS, so I had to step back on the AA.
My spec alows me to have playable FPS(B.D) with AA 8X or 12X and S.S (Min FPS around 32 and 31 with 4.09m)
B.D performance (Wide-tent 6X S.S)lookes to be the same as AA Adge detect 24X but no S.S mod and CAT AI on Standard.

WIN7 64
5870 Eyefinity
I7 920@3.92

ah, so many options for AA, perhaps they have improved wide-tent since the article I read in 2007
