AnArKey · **Fog...32bit vs 16bit, how to remove? -** 12-07-2002, 11:31 PM

At least in the Spearhead maps, try using 16bit textures and color vs 32bit, on the Stadt level. 16bit is a grey wall at 40 yards, with 32bit you can see clear across the level. I was wondering why I was just getting owned by snipers on this level. It also makes a difference in Holland, where you can't see across the bridge very well, and back by the train yard, also shooting down the reservior. Makes a big difference in the snow village level as well.

I tried using 32bit, but I go a GF2 MX440 and a Athlon 900, it doesn't run very well at 32bit. Everytime I get in a close firefight it turns into a slide show. At 16bit it was fine, but I get clobbered at long range cause I can't see **** on certain levels.

So I need to turn off fog completely. Gewitter it should be on, that I admit (everyone is supposed to be blind in that one). I accidentally had the SP Berlin load with fog off once, so I know there is some way to do it.

Once I upgrade my machine and turn it up to 32bit, I won't need to keep fog off anymore.
