Ok...I really need some help here....

ever since loading the AEROSOFT OV-10...I've had nothing but problems with my FSX...now this......can someone please help me??

Hi,

Looks like you could win the FSX "Scrapheap Challenge"...

Can we take it that you've tried the Aerosoft forum and / or Support? I don't have the OV-10 but personally I've found Aerosoft to be very helpful.

I had a quick Google of 'FSX aircraft preview messed up' and found this post http://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?221231-FSX-messed-up-planes-Help

Looking through the post, it suggests reinstalling the latest DirectX. Have you tried this?

Hope you get sorted :salute:
 
yes but for some reason I now have to run in DX10 preview mode.....sim doesn't seem like its running the same,.....and I fear I may have issues with planes and sceneries now.....wth??!?!


Also....I am not saying the OV-10 did this....it just so happend to begin after I had flown it a few times. I think its a directx issue but I can't seem to fix it....pissing me off.

from memory its a bufferpools issue when this happens with some aircraft, try changing the value

how this has happened since installing the bronco, not sure, but it cant hurt to try
 
Indeed, it can be linked to the bufferpools.

To be more precise, this kind of problem will happen when the video card starts to get too much memory usage. And this memory usage problem is often caused by an incorrect BufferPools value/tweak in the FSX.cfg.

What are your current values for this tweak ?
 
I also noticed that my ENBseries doesn't work in DX10.......this stinks!


this is my FSX.cfg file as it sits right now:

you sir are my HERO!!!! Looks like this might have been it!!!! Time for a test flight.
 
It seems this FSX.Cfg has been regenerated new not so long ago. There are almost no gauges at all in the Trusted section, the DisablePreload is missing, the autogen tweaks are missing, the videviewAspect is set to False, etc...
Have you deleted your FSX.cfg recently ?
 
yes I did......when this issue hit melast night I had spent 3 hours trying to figure out what it was and thought that maybe a fresh cfg. file would fix it.


Where do I add in the fixes you mention. I've added the bufferpools, and himemfix lines so far.
 
cfg backup

FSX will use windows and make a BACKUP of fsx.cfg, and re-names it 'fsx.cfg.txt', and is located same folder as fsx.cfg. You can open it with dbl-click. Place the NEW fsx.cfg in left half of screen (drag sides). Open fsx.cfg.txt (OLD cfg) and place on right half of screen (drag sides). Now you can compare side-by-side, section-by-section, and copy from right (old) and paste to left cfg (new). When done do 'SAVE' (of NEW/updated fsx.cfg) and you are done. Do NOT do 'Save' of fsx.cfg.txt if asked (in case you changed something). DO NOT. Hope this helps.

Sorry for the late answer.

The DisablePreload tweak goes in the Main section.
The WideViewAspect is already there, but you should change it to "True" instead of the current "False".
The autogen tweaks TERRAIN_MAX_AUTOGEN_TREES_PER_CELL=... and TERRAIN_MAIN_AUTOGEN_BUILDINGS_PER_CELL=... should go to the Terrain section if I'm not mistaken.
