DX10 Fixer released!

[skwaL 36]

Does the fix resolve problems with DX10 and aerosoft airports (night textures), as well as AI Textures

[Paul J 349]

Yes it does SkwaL, but that implies "all" Aerosoft airports, so we have to be careful with a blank statements....of course you might very well mean "all" - they have a lot of airports, but not "all" have bben tested, and it's possible there may be issues with some of them, and it's the same with AI. UT2 apparently have no issues, but there have been comments about nav light issues with other AI. I expect we will still find issues here and there for a week or two - maybe more; before there's a solid grasp on what works and what doesn't. There is a fix for one issue coming out next week, and it's possible, like almost all of the FSX addons and improvements - there is generally some learning curve involved - certainly in this case, as DX10 basically remakes the simulator into a new FSX, and that has a very big impact.

Also bear in mind that some AS airports have configuration tools like PANC and EDDS. So make sure DX10 Preview is checked.

 

 

You've got a better memory than me Julian!

Yeah, not bad for an ol' fart aye Dave :lol:

As for aerosoft I'm only asking about EDDP and EDDF. About AI, i actually looked more into WOAI, which includes various packages. (online flying)

 

Still sitting here and debating whether to switch from DX9 or not.

4.7 and a 670 is a nice machine, and you should see some nice performance with DX10, but all I can say, is read the forums, judge for yourself who the negative/positive users are: you can also download the Shaders Patch set 3.2.2 from here or from Avsim library, and most important - read the How-to guide, which is pinned at the top of the Discussions forum, so that you're aware of the history behind the Fixer. Look at lots of screenshots, and in partiicular look at the frame rates on those pics. I will tell you - there are lots of folks who are not successful in making the transition, and most of those have expected it to work like any other addon - instantly, and without any work. It is not an aircraft or a scenery addon. It impacts the way the operating system/graphics presentation system work at their base level, and once loaded and selected - the FSX cfg and it's graphics control system will have changed, and will now need to be optimized and/or experimented with further. Steve, Charles and myself, along with a growing number of very smart and successful users will be glad to help here on the forums, even to offering TeamSpeak/Teamviewer sessions if you wish, in order to get you fixed up-ok!

 

All the Best,

What are the benefits of the DX 10 fixer which is payway vs freeware?

[Paul J 349]

The payware includes all of the freeware fixes, which are basically code repairs or enhancements, plus it diagnoses and repairs/makes compatible those textures which - for whatever reason - show incorrectly or don't show in FSX.

[skwaL 36]

ah alrighty gotcha .... I'll look around for few more day on DX9 VS DX10. Does DX10 use more RAM? I hear it reduces OOMs

[Slayer 190]

I can pretty much use Heathrow, LOWI and EHAM  from aerosoft with DX10, so was it worth it ....YES. Also I had reverted to DX9 for night flying with FTX Global, no need to switch that anymore as night lighting is working perfect. 

 

Also since I purchased the 777 Ive had 4 OOM's using DX9 those have gone away again. No more flickering mountain reflections on the water( they were there on DX9 too)

 

Steve put a lot of time fixing someone else's broken code. In my eyes it's a no brainer...worth every penny.

[supersym 52]

hello !

I've a big problem :

all is black (window preview aiplane, windows of the flight...) ,

I can't regenerate "shader10", only "shader",

Well, its good to hear that the fixer got everything fixed. Is it hard to switch around between DX9 and DX10?

[Graubart 3]

Seems as if the product has been withdrawn from the shop.

[Jude Bradley 659]

I'm hoping that's just for an updated version,as I was planing to buy it today.

no. Its really simple. Just a click on the switch button.
