Actually, with the reghack, FSx uses the maximum size your video card can support. :)

Yet textures have to be power-of-two sizes, meaning that 1600x1600 is an impossible size, unless you're running either professional hardware with a proprietary API, or using a DirectX 9-class piece of hardware (which, as I recall, have to support arbitrary texture sizes)


Edit: OT - Is there any reason that the descriptions of people that are default ones are written in russian for me? I don't think that's right :)

Sorry to bump an old thread (well, its just a couple of weeks old), but I got a few questions on this:

Are the Babylon Project Hi-Res textures the same as GE's hi-res textures?  If not, whats the difference?  Which do u guys recommend?

Also, would the glow stuff Bobbou or GE did for the Fs2 ships still show up on these new textures?

And lastly, was anyone out there making hi res textures for the rest of the FS2 ships?

Thanx

1.) No. TBP is a total conversion of FS2. Those hi-res textures are for their Babylon 5 ships. Mine are for the original FS2 ships.

2.) Of course!

3.) Not that I know of... I really wish someone would take the time to detail some of the fighter maps, though.

Thanx GE.  Is there a way to d/l the hi res textures and fs1 port other than file planet?  I don't like file planet and am a liitle nervous of signing up for things just to d/l.  I tried the resources link here but it was dead (the link 2 the textures).

I'd appreciate any suggestions.

Thanx
