OK, got my new nVidia 8600GT on Friday and installed it yesterday. I decided to d/l the new release of Windlight and I'm loving it. But I'm noticing something that I can best describe as "jet streams" eminating from people and myself now when I dance or fly. Is there a way to turn these off? They're a bit annoying.

I'm not sure what jet streams mean. I'm using an 8600GT card too with everything maxed out except draw distance in preferrences and I don't have what you are disscribing. Can you post a link to a snap shot?

You might check your nVidia control panel and play around with the graphics settings for the card. I have mine set for "quality" and have no issues.

Sounds like you accidently enabled show updates from the client menu. Anyone happen to have that keyboard shortcut handy?

Nope, not show updates. I'll try to get a picture.

OK, here's a picture of the jet stream I'm referring to. It's on every person, and myself, but on myself, it's more streamlined.

A few things, including working as a great face list and making fairy dust like what I see in the piccie.

try "/1 dust off"

Thanks Mari..it must have been on because it now says it is off. Guess I'll just have to live with it where others are concerned :)
