I thought RTA (Reaction Time Accelleration) decreases Motion-Blur when ACTIVE?

See here: http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/oth.../19inch-4.html
The response time compensation/acceleration can have a negative effect when it overshoots, and sometimes you can see less motion blur with RTC/RTA disabled; the RTC/RTA error manifests itself like a motion blur that happens in... advance! (as opposite to the usual thing that you see, namely a trail that's left behind).

8800gtx. Rivers look much better, but now edges of the forests are shimmering badly. Can't stop it with rivatuner.

Well... those DLL's fix a few but rather small grafic glitches on my system. "Well done!" to this.
But about the new rivercoasts I'm pretty unsure. Indeed the flickering is well reduced and on some areas rivers look a bit more real (like swampy coasts), but on the other side, it looks very unreal on sea coasts, plus it cannot reduce the flickering of the animated water foam, can it? Maps without rivers, but sea coast (i.e. pacific maps) would really suffer from this.

I see this as a partially workaround only, not a solution. There are a few issues on the game, where flickering is produced, not only river and sea edges (so also at the markings or the edges between the canopy frames and the windows of the extern models). This still can be solved only by high settings of antialiasing, which on some systems even isn't possible at all.

I'd like to get an option wether to choose DLL's with or without the new river coasts, but however including all other latest improvements.

Thanks for your efforts anyway!

I like the "new and improved" .dll's...it seems like everything looks a little bit better. It's hard to say, (because I change my graphics setting a lot) but I think that everything looks a little bit smoother...shadows are blended...the "light" in general looks more "cohesive"...
