Hello!

I'd be very happy if someone could answer these questions. specs: geforce8800GTS512, 2GRAM, core2duo E6750 2.66

1: In my Nvidia settings I can set antialiasing to 16 or 16Q. What's the difference? also, do I have to set it to 16, or 8x is enough? Same thing with the an..anisotropic (whatever) filtering. 8x, or 16x? what does it do?

For Il2, AA of 4x is probably enough, but your rig can handle more. I tried 2xQ on a 6800 Ultra and a 7950GT, both times the frame rates were excellent, but the image was a bit fuzzy. I settled on 4xAA as the sharper image made spotting targets easier. Oleg has recommended letting setting the game to use Anisotropic Filtering, that means setting your card to let the application control AF.

2:Horizon distance far/ medium? Little difference in-game, but is it a big FPS hit?

It's a fps hit on older computers, but you can probably handle it.

3: maybe the dumbest question: having a lot of skins and missions installed can slow down my game?:oops:

Thank you very much in advance!

I don't think so, certainly not once a mission loads.

You have a good system, why not overclock that CPU and unleash some real flight sim power?
