NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT settings.....

Can anyone tell me if my settings are correct, or is it just a personal preference :headscratch:

Supposedly AH doesn't use anisotropic filtering.

Other than that... one thing I might suggest "just for the eye candy" -- if you have the power for it.

Transparency anti-aliasing will make some things look better. Like the tower windows and railings, for one. These are textures that have transparent parts. FSAA only works on the edges, not where transparent textures kick in, so it doesn't help with them.

It eats up more power, but when it's on it'll look nicer.


Other than that I don't see anything blatantly out of order. Was there something wrong, specifically?

I also use 1 or 0 pre-rendered frames (0 if I am recording with fraps) and single display mode but you may have more than a single monitor or something and Negative LOD bias set to Clamp which decreased horizon shimmering and also decreased the polygon edge jitter.
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.

Not sure if its related to my graphics card or not, but I am having issues with actually seeing the explosion of a kill or even having a kill register as a kill.
For example, it may be due to lag but I can fire on a con and for maybe 2-3 second later will come the explosion or kill message, there has been a couple of times where the plane is still there and flying along and I completely destroy the con and get no kill message whatsoever, not even an assist, nodda.

My thought was that it may have something to do with my graphics settings, but I am running 65-75 usually on my FRPS.

Any Ideas?
