Turn the Trees and Bushes back on
« on: October 26, 2026, 03:40:44 PM »
A patch especially for those that turn off the trees and the bushes. 

The arena turns them right back on and makes their video card settings go back to moderate settings and third party apps are deactivated and useless.

Everyone sees trees and bushes.  :aok

Errrmm... the way graphic/detail sliders work in-game is you can remove tar trees and they will still obscure any gvs beyond the reduced graphical display.

The "hack whine" issue seemingly relates to the external reshader program (free to d/l and use on top of AH) seemingly providing more visibility than normal display changes.

Now whether to be "competitive" requires a player to use reshader is the issue you're noting.

I  don't use it and accept my suck in gvs.

I have used reshade in the past. All it ever did for me was adjust how vibrant or dull the landscape looked, how blue the sky etc. I have Not seen one setting in there that, lets you see through buildings, eliminate the trees and bushes (see through them) esp hack or any kind of “cheat”
that’s aid when aces 3 first came out, you could reduce the range and still see bbq tanks beyond that. If they were behind a tree you didn’t see it would still block the shot. I suspect some may have figured out how to keep their client doing that, buddy i have looked right at an him and didn’t see him through the trees yet in film his barrel tracked me as he went in a circle around me. It was my base and had been there shut down for about ten minutes waiting for them, so “film” is not an issue, perhaps shade but doubtful. Just sayin…

Reshade is not the only graphics program that can enhance visual effects. There are others:  SweetFX, Magpie, NVIDIA Freestyle, AMD FidelityFX, Lossless Scaling, Filmic Pro, CineEffects,
X4: Foundations Graphics Enhancer, DirectX 11 Graphics Enhancer, ShaderToy, and vkBasalt. Each one offers effects similar to but not exactly the same as Reshade.

Reshade has a ton of filters that were uploaded by players. Reshade warns their users they can potentially be banned by using their filters for online gaming.

If you send in a video of a player you suspect is using an app over Aces High, HiTech will only see what your computer recorded. He cannot see what the app allowed the player to see during game play.

There are ways to detect the app and filter.

Many games ban just for the use of reshader, period. It’s an easy catch.

I hear it every night.

The app can be made unusable while the game runs.

None of this is rocket science.
