Bloom problem

Hi,

Recently I started having problems with FSX crashing when ending a flight. So I removed the fsx.cfg and regenerated a new, but since then the bloom effect has looked a bit off. There are no spikes coming from the bloom effect, just the softed light. I can not figure it out, what could be wrong?

I dont have an answer for you as I don't use it - but here's a friendly bump in case someone does
 
Did you check that FSX hasnt set itself to run in DX10 [Preview] mode ?

from the looks of the bloom and the water in your shot it seems that its running under DX10 if so that the way bloom works in DX10 you'll have to switch back to the DX9 render to get flare/spike bloom

Yes, DX10 Preview is turned off. Tried turning it on and off to see if that would help, but it did not...
 
Try adding these lines to your FSX config in the graphics section.
I had some problems getting mine to work after a config delete and rebuild.
If it doesn't help you can always take it back out.
