A little closer we see all wires:

Had to edit around 290 ships! It's not totally finished yet.
(Not obvious on screen shots, but much better in game)

If you have a NVidia GPU, set AA compatibility to Diablo III and use 8xMSAA plus AA Transparency at 8xSGSS in NPI and you wont have any flickering.

Thank you, but still… those settings that I gave long ago.

Ships wires are not the same, some are thick some are very thin depending the boat and the creator … you can do whatever you want, the thin ones flickers like hell.
Original stock SH3 ships have the more acceptable wires, but they are too thick and disproportionate! (That’s why they almost don’t flicker)
So the disappearing wires at distance is the best solution still. Anyway you can’t see wires at kilometers without binoculars …

That's very strange. I am using your and Onealex's mod and there is absolutely zero flickering on any of the mast wires at any given situation (thin or thick). None. Everything looks smooth 100%. So, maybe it's your GPU? I have a 1070 GTX. Anyway, here are my NPI settings, just in case. And BTW, thank you for this fantastic mod. I am enjoying it a lot.

Attachment 5869

It is known Line Gamma on and AA more than 4x produces the flattering sun effect (sub as a ball) in SH3. From long years ago, with Nvidia GC, was recommended to put 4x AA as the maximum, and no line gamma correction.

Tell us if you see well the sun in your installation. In mine, with more than 4xAA, it looks very bad.

Regards.

I don't have any flattering sun effect either. Did you try my NPI settings I attached in the comment above? The most important settings are Diablo3 in AA compatibility, then override any app configuration and above all Sparse Grid Supersampling at 8x (NOT just 4x or using only Supersampling). 8xSGSS seems to be the only way to smoothen everything out in this older game. To have full effect it requires a good GPU though.

Best regards, Rod

Try again. There is another window that opens with the big picture.

I tried it with SH3 GWX OneAlex and NYGM FiFi and I have the flat sun, a little ball of golf...Doesn´t work in my installation.

I need to set AA 4x without Line Gamma for a good sun with halo.

Many thanks!
