The problem to Nvidea Cards isnt the conf.ini or the dlls
It is the individual settings to the grafix card own driver.
I spent a lot of time with 2 different nvidea cards in my il2 carrer to get the most of it.
The standart setts applied in the driver settings are imho BS.
If needed or if your grafix look like shit,i can have a look at my "old system with nvidea" at home and post my driver setts (8800gtx;driver version not present at work here),as i changed back to ATI in my newest system (change dedicated to il2).
You can also save a lot FPs in the "modern AA" settz, so there is almost no diff. between 4x and 6x ingame anymore by view but by fps, so the decision was clear to me (note:using ATI now,dont know about new AA settz on GTX280 series)
Though the dlls are just an extension in the main setup of il2 to be able choosing a conf.ini configuration.
But if peybolman is fine with his grafix on his NV system @ GTX280 he could perhabs post his driver setts.
Refering to the conf.ini
I use (4890HD/I7/12gigRam blabla) TexCompress=2,as you dont realize the difference at all but it spends a lot fps back.
If u use the HD effects mod i would change back to HardwareShaders=1;Forest =2 (at the end it u got no diff. above 1000m height)
If u customize your conf.ini by "hand/notepad", set VideoSetupId=17 (means custom,otherwise the values will be changed on next startup again to videosetup=2.
