Hi Folks,
I'm trying to figure out what I did to screw up my cards stabilization and what to do to get it fixed. I'm convinced that it has to do with my settings in RP and/or CCC and that these settings are trying to make the card work harder than it can.
So I’m looking for the RP 1.1.1.0 manual because if there's one thing i don't understand, it's setting the graphics so I have a minimum of 'shimmer' on distant water surfaces, or jagged edges outlining a cockpit or runway lines, (I think that's AA but there's so many variations), and a decent, not-too-soft, look in the scenery.
I'm sure if I have the latest manual and apply myself, I may be able to sort this stuff out and figure what I should use and what I should 'turn off'. But the manual I'm reading from is not the 1.1.1.0 version.
This is a little bit of a problem but if I have to, I'll just keep reading the one I have.
BTW, after I launch a game using the "play" option in a profile I set up, do I have to leave RP open? I mean, do I have to minimize it to the task-bar or can I close the darn thing?
And the same question applies to the "Global" settings; If I make adjustments under the "Global" tab, do I then have to leave the RP window open and minimized in the task-bar in order for those changes to run?
This version doesn't have a "Save" button like the 1.1.0.6 did, (when you made a change under the Global tab, a 'save' button would need to be clicked for the setting changes to be kept and applied).
Thanks, Rich
