As I know that NaturaLux has skyboxes with size of 85 MB, it demanded a -mm_max_resource_size 90,
but that value really just need to be slightly above the filesize of the biggest resource in the system.
Default is 22 MB, I use 32 MB, but the game will work with every value up to the max 100 MB.

With the memory pool size the fact is that you can set that up to half the available memory, and
you shouldn't run the game together with BIG memory sucking applications, so set it to 15000.
I'll change the memory to 15000 and scale back the max_resource_size and see what happens.

I really appreciate the help with this.

@BenganJ
That's now 2 people complaining of strange image duplication on left/right on triples.
Only mods can cause this. Multimon only shows what the game outputs.

Time for another Q&A!

Q - My multi monitor setup has duplicate truck images and missing sky on left/right screen.
A - Outdated mod relating to sky boxes, caused by SCS gfx update 1.38. Update your mods.

DONE! //BenganJ

@Jarinage

To start, which is your native monitor resolution? Which DSR factor are you trying to use?
Are you running single monitor or multi-monitor setup?
I'm on 21:9 monitor with native resolution 2560 x 1080. When I engage DSR via NCP then in game menu offers several resolutions above my native obviously. The one I'd be interested in is for example 3840 x1620, possibly double the native one, which in my case is 5120 x 2160. Regardless which resolution I choose (I think after applying DSR it shows another seven resolutions above native one) none of them works and I loose AA. When I set the native one I'm good to go with AA.

Single monitor setup to fully answer your question.

@Jarinage

First, you can add just one of the DSR factors if you like, do that when you have made your choice.
Second, did you set BOTH the desktop resolution AND the game resolution to the DSR resolution?

I did set my desktop to DSR resolution. Then I set the same res in-game and I got no AA.

@Jarinage

Okay, odd to me, but you're not alone. I have native 1920x1080 and use DSR factor 1.78x,
getting a DSR resolution of 2560x1440 which I set my desktop and game to, no problem.
clear F1 also had problems with some factors, but 2.25x worked for him.

Well actually 3840 x 1620 is 2,25x factor in my case and it doesn't work... I think I'll have to live with native res.

@Jarinage

Sorry, but I know too little about DSR problems to be of any more help, I can
just note that for me it works flawlessly!

@JHTrucker

Do you have an idea about this? And one more thing, it seems as if SCS has done
something odd about vegetation handling in 1.38, so now I have had to get rid of
my LOD distance enhancement in game_data.sii and also abandon r_grass_density
set to "3". Any idea about that?

@Jarinage

Just for the record, where do you set the desktop resolution?
In NCP or in Windows?
