Title: Improving Graphics Stuff
Post by: Kargur Bloodaxe on April 28, 2008, 02:39:18 AM
Sorry, I can't remember who I was talking to before about increasing weather intensity and that. But I was scouting around world of raids and found the macro to increase everything to beyond the maximums allowable by the toolbars

/console farclip 777
/console horizonfarclip 6226
/console groundeffectdensity 256
/console groundeffectdist 140
/console smallcull 0
/console skycloudlod 3
/console characterambient 0

If this gives you low FPS then

/console groundEffectDensity 16
/console groundEffectDist 1
/console horizonfarclip 1305
/console farclip 177
/console characterAmbient 1
/console smallcull 1
/console skycloudlod 1
/console detailDoodadAlpha 1

returns it to normal.

Links to some screenies below, looks amazing tbh, gonna try it on the PC at home next time I'm there.

Saw this on MMO-champion myself aye. Looks fun, though I won't be trying it. My FPS is low as it is on my current computer. Especially in Outland anyway. Looks pretty nice nonetheless.

Should dramatically improve your FPS. Only if you have a Dual or Quaddie CPU.

"M2UseThreads 1"
Didn't noticed any fps changes (I have AMD Athlon X2 CPU)
also, there is no such variable in config.apple crumble file. didn't checked by myself, but many people reported that both cpu cores loads anyway by default, without this option enabled - you can see it in the task manager.

Changed other options listed above - it's awesome! Graphics looks much better, FPS didn't changed.
