Filtering+Anti-aliasing

Post by Laserlight »

Just a suggestion, maybe we should have Anostrobic Filtering and anti-aliasing so that the games textures and general graphics could be improved..
I have also noticed that the game is very light on the amount of ram it uses.
i understand its so people can play it better and more people can play it at a high fps.. but is there something you actually can do that can make the graphics even more better but cannot as it uses more than 78mb ram?

P.s the game works on my vista, windows xp vortex, and windows 95!
I had a go at testing it on windows 64bit edition but it failed in the campaign?

Cya!

In 2.1 anisotropic filtering is implemented and enabled by default.
If you want FSAA you need to setup it in your driver settings atm.

To make the graphics of any game better, there are a few things you can do:

1) Play the game at higher resolutions.
2) Use image enhancing settings such as antialiasing and anistrophix filtering which can be done in the graphics card driver menu as stated before.
3) Use high res textures and more detailed models. => go ahead and create them if you want to. Enough about how to do that can be found on this forum.
4) All the rest is up to the game engine. Warzone has a pretty simple engine compared to modern engines. It doensn't support fancy shaders and effects. So a complete engine overhaul/rewrite/whatever would have to be done. alot of work !

Sure Thing! ;D
I had A-A + A-F enabled on my graphics card and i am running it at 1280-800 resolution (looks very nice)
The engine itself i will try to rewrite, just give me some time.. ;D
