joebloggs Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 When I watched the Wags video on the caucasus map it looks nothing like it does in my game. So it would help if we know what setting they are using including season and time of day?

dburne Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 I don't see a setting for Global Ilumm, where is it in the settings? Also, I don't see AA or AF? Need to be running deferred shading on for that option. Not sure why you would not see msaa and af.

Well, the higher these settings are set, the further you can see trees and gras. I don't know if Wags is running them on max, but you wanted to know how you can make the game as good looking as his, so just crank them up. Maybe it looks even better than, than in Wags videos if he does not run these sliders on max.

I max all my settings to the hilt and she runs smooth as silk and I'll be doing the same in 2.5 , just saying GazAce's "Skynet Rig" :: :: 13th Gen Intel Core i9-13900K :: Asus ROG Strix Z790-A Mobo :: Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 MSI Gaming Slim GPU 24GB :: NZXT Kraken Elite 280 RGB AIO White Cooler :: G Skill Trident Z Royals DDR4 4x16GB = 64GB :: WD Black SN 850X NVMe SSD 2TB M.2 (C Drive) :: Samsung 860 Pro 2TB SATA (D Drive) & a couple of other Drives adding another 1.5 TB :: Corsair Crystal 680X White Case :: Asus XG349C 34" Curve G-Sync 180Hz 3440x1440 Monitor :: MSI 1000 Watt PSU PCIE5 :: Virpil Constellation Alpha-R Stick with VPC WarBRD Base :: Virpil MongoosT-50CM3 Throttle :: 3 x CubeSim ext mini screens with TM Cougar MFD Bezels :: Asus ROG Pugio 503 Gaming Mouse & Razer BlackWidow mech kb :: TrackIR 5 Pro & Cap Clip :: Win 11 64 Bit
HiJack Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 So if you lover the gamma settings you get a darker shade? And when increasing the gamma value you get more light to the dark so it goes more gray? Does it have any effect on night time? I run the default 2.2 gamma for now but will pay close attention to shades. No frame hit when adjusting gamma up or down? EDIT: My settings - Gamma 2.2 - Global Illum On - Deferred Shading On - AA to 8 - AF to 16 - Res 2560x1440

EDIT: My settings - Gamma 2.2 - Global Illum On - Deferred Shading On - AA to 8 - AF to 16 - Res 2560x1440 Gamma has no impact on frames. It just changes the grey values of the colors, so turning it up makes everything brighter and turning it down makes everything darker. 2.2 seems pretty high. Most people here seem to use values between 1.4 and 1.8.

mkiii Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 Your Monitor & GFX card settings might also be contributing to the effect, so there is no one in-game setting that will suit everyone. For example on NVIDIA cards, Adjust Desktop Colour Settings can be set to allow "Other Applications" to control these, in this case DCS, or be set to use NVIDIA settings. So it might be worth checking that before tweaking too much in DCS.
