I have read this posthttp://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=128516&highlight=nhancer+settings and done the settings they way it suggests which does help with the laddering on the rigging, but the image no longer feels as sharp as it was, particularly noticeable is when at normal view of my uboat it looks just slightly out of focus, I can't really explain it any better than that.
As for the Sun halo, well I have given up trying to get it, I don't remember ever having it so sod it, a flat spot sun it is.
So I have reverted to my original philosophy which was just max out the lot, icluding supersampling, trilinear etc etc in the Nvidia control panel

Anyway my question to the users of this card and nHancer is what settings do you use and if I may be so bold could you provide a screenshot?

P.S. I know this is another settings thread but I have been though loads of threads over the last 6hrs straight and been running tests in the game and I still do not have an answer to my problems.

P.P.S. I am still using the 175.16 winXP SP2 32bit driver, anyone using the 178.24 ok? Also 180.48 drivers are latest drivers for my card according to the Nvidia website?

Well, as there doesn't seem to be anyone using this combo, I went ahead with the 180.48 drivers, the unistall/install process did not go like it did previous to my 175.16 drivers but from the hours of reading I think that is because of the new driver setup being changed(no longer option to remove Nvidia display drivers in the Add/Remove Programs menu). Anyway DxDiag reports they are there and no problems found so out to sea again.

You are not alone in this combo, though I found the nHnacer settings to improve the image. In fact in thereafter clicking stuff I thought would add found that it didn't and as the profile suggested it was the most optimal.

Drivers been upgraded all the way through to 180.48.

Here is a link to my screenshot; YMMV

Thanks for your reply, unfortunately I don't seem to be able to open/view any of your links, I'm not sure why, could you maybe try again or (and I know it would be a pain:o) type your settings out for me?
