Getting best possible graphics

[Jango40]

Can you make the graphics better (With or without openjk/rend2) by changing some cvars, r_'s, etc?

[Xycaleth]

No. If you set all the settings to max, that's the best you're going to get.

[Sithani]

Well, you can force anti-aliasing and 16x anisotropic filtering in your graphic card's settings. It's always an improvement

[Xycaleth]

JKA already has anisotropic filtering

You can probably use some effects injector for obnoxious bloom and color correction if you're into that...

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think JA is an OpenGL game and pretty much every injector out there is DirectX only.

 

I just want OpenJK to hurry up and finish adding rend2. It looks so awesome.

qeffects is gud

Not so high, though? I may be wrong

[eezstreet]

QEffects works if you're into that sort of thing. The Pro version which I made has some large improvements to the effects so they look significantly less washed-out.

 

There's also a setting in r_ somewhere, like PatchLOD or something which improves the quality of patches significantly so they look less blocky.

It goes up to as high as your graphics driver makes available to applications.

/r_dynamicglow 3
/cg_shadows 2

Those 2 will give some better lighting and shadowing.

[Xycaleth]

R_dynamicglow 3 is the same as 1

I will try to create my mod (from other mods), that makes JKA graphics better I hope authors of these mods will allow me to use it.

 

- QEffects (with my configuration, not default).

- Some effects from JKG (fire, jet, flamethrower, water).

- Ultimate Jedi Academy (better shaders, more human male species).

- Texture Overhaul.

- MB2 Weapon Effects.

- My new menu:

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

- Force power effects

 

  Reveal hidden contents

 

And other (about 35 mods).
