Distance for flag identification

Fahnenbohn · 08-13-15, 05:08 AM

I would like to clarify something : i've done this mod, because i have some difficulties to identify the flags from afar. But it's strongly probable that this is due to my graphics card. See the picture below :

When I go away from the flag, it becomes very blurred. The same thing happens when I look it aside.

I guess this odd effect doesn't happen on other computers.

Could you confirm that point, everybody ?

Guys, it's Anvart's mod GWX_SH4StyleFlag_fullModel. You can download it from Plisken's site, Anvart mods section.

Thanks for the link, I'm going to test this mod.

Here is the result of my test with the mod called GWX_SH4StyleFlag_fullModel.

The flag is more detailed and with a more worked animation, but it is only slightly longer than the orginal one.

Textures are the same as in GWX.

I don't like.

I usually can't confirm a flag until within 1000m (some from farther if they're just three colours like France or Ireland), but i like to launch torpedoes within 800m so it's not too much of a problem

I've been using 'Flags_enlighten' since patrol one..

I, too, use the flag enlighten mod. I rarely need it anymore, but I still have it.

Could anybody confirm/invalidate that point, please ? Do the flags become blurred from afar on your screen, as on the first picture ?

Will try it out asap!

Hello Fahnenbohn, installed and working fine, no blur.
