Another problem within FSX....!

Post by Techy111 »

OK i stumbled across this...its proberly well know but for those that don't know....

If you have a DX10 card and tick the extra box in the settings window......."preview DX10" Then a lot of the aircraft do not show in the preview pane or in game..... :dunno:

I would assume this is because the aircraft are not in DDS format.....?

Anyone concur with this...?

Unticking the option brings all the aircraft back into view.... :think:

The DX10 thing is only a preview and not worth the bother mate. Its really only to demo what could have been done if they had had access to the DX developement team when they were doing FSX.
