Seems to me, ATi users have been shafted

Forgot to add shimmering tree's and house's
Wellll.... IL2 1946 UP MOD is pretty awesome with a new Mod about to be released... this gets me through the WWII SIM craving. Also, another really good diversion is the A10-C Warthog Sim from DCS that is pretty awesome.
So if you tire of this debacle, there are working SIMS that could satisfy until this one is figured out.


I have an ATI HD 5970 and I do not overclock CPU or GPUs
I have not seen the blue lines. I have been able to tweak out the issues most seem to be having. I don't have any jaggies.

I don't fully understand all the nuances of what does what with all the Graphics settings and tweaks.

I can tell you that whether it makes sense or not, these changes worked for me. I have the Sim running pretty well right now. The shimmering is still there but is reduced.

Changed PAM to 64 from 14
Renamed Logo.waw to stop UBI Splash in EU version which reportedly locked clock speed to 400
Changed Render to D3DD_11 from D3DD_10
