Add a section for overriding AA via the control panel to values higher than what FG launcher UI currently allows, or setting transparency AA. Add a note about the black square bug in NVIDIA cards when AA is forced off in the control panel but is turned on in FG.

=== Overriding anti-aliasing settings in NVIDIA or AMD control panel === | |||
[[File:Nvidia Control Panel on Windows 10.png|alt=Nvidia Control Panel on Windows 10|thumb|NVIDIA Control Panel on Windows 10. Click to enlarge.]] | |||
The driver control panels for NVIDIA and AMD support enhancing settings beyond what applications allow. You can use this to override Flightgear, or if you want a GUI interface (Feb 2021). | |||
'''Tip:''' In Windows at least can have different settings for different programs by selecting the executable path e.g. <code>C:\Program Files\FlightGear\bin\fgfs.exe</code> . If you are a power user using multiple installations of FlightGear side by side, You can have different settings for different version of FlightGear installed in parallel. You can also have different profiles by copying the \bin folder to \bin2 e.g. <code>C:\Program Files\FlightGear\bin2\fgfs.exe</code>, and use a copy of the shortcut pointing to the new fgfs.exe (otherwise you may need to add any command-line options like --launcher that is already included in the default shortcut created by the installer). | |||
{{Note|NVIDIA users: if you have forced anti-aliasing off in the NVIDIA control panel, and you have <b>not</b> set anti-aliasing off in FG you will likely see black or green squares for trees.}} | |||
