Thank you for your help, so every one know it was the NVIDIA anisiotropic needs to be off for some reasone. But I know have perfect setting. thank you FA'...

Could be Mastiff.

Check in the advanced settings in Nvidia Control Panel and then pull up the settings for IL2.
Make sure that your settings say to overide, not compliment.

That was my problem when I did a re-install of drivers.
If that doesn't help, you can try to completely remove the drivers using Driver Cleaner Pro. Hard to find now, but if you need it, let me know.
Remove all Nvidia Video Drivers, set your display to generic.

Next runn CCleaner and do a registry check to delete any Nvidia entries left behind as well as fix any errors in the registry.
Now reboot the system and then reinstall the drivers.

That will reset all the registry settings for Nvidia and give you a Clean Install for the drivers.

Yup, see, it's just like I said on TeamSpeak. :wink:


Readers clarification:

For Perfect Landscape Details, such as Perfect Water, you must handle the Anisotropic issues.

1) Force Mipmaps: NONE in the graphics card Control Panel. The graphics card Control Panel settings overide everything in IL-2. Control Panel settings and IL-2 settings must be in harmony.

For added peace of mind, one could make a Program Profile in the graphics card Control Panel with an executable file. This file is typically the il2fb.exe which is attached to the Profile to activate the settings any time the il2fb.exe is opened which happens when you start IL-2.

This is just what some people need to over ride graphics card driver gliches.


2) The IL-2 Setup Window (il2set.exe) must have Texture Mipmap Filter: Anisotropic, Texture Compression: NONE, and Texture Anisotropic Extension Enabled. This is regardless of your other settings.

In my tech topic, I have a section for how to get Perfect Water, among other maximum image settings. The readers can get a tight grip on issues by going to my tech topic here:
