I have a P4 3.2ghz computer with 2048 RAM and an nVidia 7600 GeForce 7600 GT (AGP) with 256 RAM. This is my question. I get oscillating (wavy) lines on anything that's horizontally oriented, such as the terminal buildings at KATL when seen from a distance. Also, the blast fences, etc. are the same way. This is especially apparent now that I've installed Imagine Simulations KATL. I THINK I've tweaked everything possible in the regular FS9 Display setup and now believe I need to set up something in the advanced nVidia console. But, there are so many settings there that I'm not at all sure what I'm doing. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to look for or changes to make? I believe it can be better - I just don't know how to make it that way!!! Thanks.....

Chuck, It is not your computer it is the scenery. I have the same problem with all imaginesim scenery. Does not happen anywhere else in my flight sim world except Atlanta, Charlotte, Cincy and Newark. I have tried for weeks on end to improve this, but I cannot find the answer. It has to be the scenery because I know of at least 3 people that have complained about the same thing

Nope. I've never heard of nHancer - what is it? Also, I wonder if this problem could be limited to nVidia cards. Do the ATI cards have the same problem with "shimmer" on the horizontal objects? Thanks again.

You have a leaky scenery !!!
Try updating the scenery or re-insatlling, Then adjust your graphics card to BALANCED on the NTuner.

Chuck,
If you're using nVidia, go here: http://www.nhancer.com
Adam put me onto this program the other day and my sim has never looked better. And you could just search some of my sceenshots that are all pre nhancer on the DVA website and imagine what the sim looks like now.
Cheers.

Kenneth,
I'm using an nVidia GT7600 AGP card and have downloaded the latest driver. My research at nHancer shows set-ups for FSX, but not for FS9 that I'm running. Could you, or someone else, lead me to an nHancer setup for my card and FS9. It seems that the "default" FS2004 settings don't provide the best display for my card. Thanks!

Sorry, I was gone these past few days. This should help you out with nHancer settings: http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=197&topic_id=38172&mode=full#38184

If you download nHancer, there is a pre-determined setting in there listed as MS-Flight Simulator 2004.
