  • Hey there. For the German fansite planetnexuiz.de I'm looking for an up2date comparison of the eye-candy (graphic effects) that Nexuiz v2.4 offers.

    Up to now I've used these 2 screenshots that illustrate the difference of high vs. low settings:
    http://planetnexuiz.de/images/stories/n ... ew/low.jpg
    http://planetnexuiz.de/images/stories/n ... w/high.jpg

    However, I know that v2.4 can do so much more, like the nice water reflections, etc. Could anybody provide 2 high resolution (1280 x xyz pixels) pictures that use very high settings and very low settings (but NO gl_picmip please) of exact the same ingame-moment (there should be players on it, just like in the screenshots I posted the links to above) ? The map can be any of the Nexuiz maps, having one that shows reflections would be awesome (I've seen some action-screenshots of maps like ruiner already, they were great, however, I'd need the low-details pic of that, too).

    Your help would really be appreciated. I'm trying to get the site a bit updated but I lack the time to investigate some things on my own at the moment.

  • Would it be possible to (during a botmatch) have a bind that would take a screenshot, then exec a different video config and do a vid_restart, then take another screenshot when that's finished?

  • Thanks for the pictures.

    About doing them: simply run a demo, then pause the demo (pausedemo command I believe), and then exec your graphic configs, r_restart, screenshot, another graphic settings change, r_restart, again screenshot

    As you can see it's quite easy :)

  • Well in that low settings screenshot i really disabled about every effect.. i guess the main difference is that i did not use picmip so it still looks quite nice. Not to forget 1920x1200 resolution and 4x fullscreen antialiasing :)
