increased graphics macro [Jul. 10th, 2009|02:24 pm]

So there's this macro I found where you can actually push WoW's graphic
quality past the maximum ammount listed in graphics settings. Depending
on the area you're in, it can make you lag like hell, but it 'beautifies"
the environment around you, deepends shadows, makes texture cleaner and
crisper, etc. Here are some shots of me playing with it out in Arathi.

it's not really good for anything beyond taking really cool screenshots.
I play at maximum settings already, and in certain locales, it takes me
from 50 fps all the way to like 5 fps. Still, a fun gimmick, nonetheless.

















to use it, set your existing settings to maximum, and then
enable this macro.

Toggle graphics On Macro:
/console groundEffectDensity 256
/console groundEffectDist 200
/console detailDoodadAlpha 100
/console horizonfarclip 2112
/console farclip 999
/console characterAmbient

To turn it all off, and reset everything, use the macro below.
it will turn all your settings to zero.

Toggle graphics Off Macro:
/console groundEffectDensity 16
/console groundEffectDist 1
/console horizonfarclip 1305
/console farclip 177
/console characterAmbient 1
/console smallcull 1
/console skycloudlod 1
/console detailDoodadAlpha 1


you'll probably need to reset your main settings by hand, and
then re-log to make everything work normally again. Have fun!
