Boot Graphics/My Boot don't look so Gute
 
Kaleuns!
I've been playing SH3 for a few days whilst my gaming computer is in the shop.
I was trying to get the game looking as good as I could with this older laptop and I've done pretty well. My biggest issue right now with the graphics is the outside.
My avatar view of the bridge looks pretty hosed.:hmph: That is, it looks very grainy and low res.
I know I had the bridge view looking very good before but I do not have access to my old mod list. I'm going to post my mod list, can someone give me some advise as to how I can get a better looking bridge?! I had Manos env activated but it seemed that it wasn't working well and I might have placed it wrong.
Anyway, any advice about the bridge view would be so welcome.
Danke und Gut Jagd

PS; SH Commander w/GWX (All working good)

HP Notebook W Intel Core 2Duo T7500/2.20G(2 CPU's),~2.20Gs
Display 2G Ram /Page File 4G
Display: Nvidia/GeForce 8600M GS/1267MB @ 1440x900

I am using the FM interior mod and that looks great. It's just the outside view on the bridge that I can't get over.
I remember using a res fix on the other box but I don't know if that is the problem or not. I just need to know if there is a mod to improve the resolution, I just don't remember the bridge (Compass, UZO, tower, ect) looking so LO Res...

Any thoughts,?? I don't think this laptop is that bad...:hmmm:

...

There is some information floating around here regarding NVidia drivers, but I can't find them at the moment (quick search only).
Also, the 1440x900 is a good resolution, and there is a mod to be able to use this. Again, I can't seem to find anything today but I'm on holiday ;) .
Anyway, find the mod(s) for Hi Resolution and the mod(s) for getting the correct look for guages, instruments, etc. and you should be just fine.

[edit] by the way, I'm also running SHIII GWX 3.0 Gold on a laptop, very similar specs. The only mod I can't load is the large ship addition mod (I can't remember the name of it, ... but I'm on holiday ;) ).

Cool, Thanx. I'll keep looking for the correct Hi-res.
Again, Since installing FM Interior, the incide looks just fine.
Thanks again
