Look at the shots

These unclear spots are driving me crazy. Whats it caused by? I have MiPMapping set to 8, AA set to 4x, and AF set to 8x.

Cheers

I'm sorry, I can't really see very well what you mean, it looks like the image is compressed just a wee bit too much, and its hard to see the difference between the bits inside and outside the red lines...

ok forget about the red lines. Its not compressed or anything, thats really what my flight sim looks like.

I only used the boxes to show examples

Its almost as if its pixelised kind of.... I dunno

What did you use to upload the photos? Somethings like photoshop will automaticly compress the image if its too large.

My pick is it's AF set too high, and mip mapping is trying too hard to render everything.

In simple terms, AA makes lines blend together (ie removes jaggies), AF sharpens things a bit. Try a lower AF setting. Mip mapping is designed to give the 'illusion of distance'. Knock it back a bit - to 6 or 5.

Edit: Take a look here

It's not a bad resource.

ATI control panel was better than Nvidias in my oppionion
