Title: Graphics problem. Something fishy here...
Post by: beet1e on April 28, 2003, 06:59:38 AM
Hi chaps - sorry if this isn't the right forum to post this, but maybe it is so...

I've got problems with graphics. For some reason, the ocean looks like a tempest with waves hundreds of feet high. I asked one of the other guys online if he was seeing the same thing, but he said everything looked normal. Look at these...

I normally run at the second highest resolution (can never remember the numbers - lol) but tried out the middle resolution setting out of the five available, but got the same thing. Plus it made the planes look like the ones in WB3 - ugh. lol

Help me if you can!

It looks like you have the horizon distance set to minimum, have you tried shift F1?

Other than that i haven't a clue.

The answer is in the 2nd picture. Dad has Waw Wabbit Stelth Mode activated. It`s powerfull force field is probably scrambling your reception. :D

Doh!  Hitting Shift-F1 seems to have fixed it. What is that command?

Shift F1, Shift F2, and Shift F3 are the 3 different resolution modes available.  If you have low FPS, you can cut down the horizon distance by selecting Shift F3 and it usually jumps your FPS up just a bit.

sometimes if i am in the main gun sight of a tank and zoomed when there is alot of smoke in my view my frame rate will goto 5!!! shift f3 is a life saver (maybe not a life saver but a perk saver)
