Can't use perfect settings! [SOLVED] - bruno2195 - 22.02.2010

Hi everyone, I'm with a little problem in the settings of IL2 1946, I can't enable perfect settings on Landscape Detail, to use the best water (water=3 or 4), I have tryed to enable on conf.ini, but it doesn't work, IL2 runs just on Exelent settings. I have a pc with 2GB RAM Core2Duo 2.56Ghz nVidea 8500 GT 512MB. And anyone knows if there is some thing to improve the graphics? :???:




P.S. Sorry for my bad english. Smile

You have to be using openGL, it won't work on directX.

- bruno2195 - 22.02.2010

Thaks for reply, but im actualy using OPENGL.

- Hawker17 - 22.02.2010

Can you post your conf.ini OPENGL section?

- bruno2195 - 22.02.2010

Note: I've tryed water=3 but it returns to 1.

Hi Bruno2195,

3 Requirements for Perfect Landscape:
1. OpenGL (as mentioned above)
2. 32 bit color depth
3. Use Stencil Buffer checked
If this still does not do it, you may have to edit conf.ini.
Look for


So:
[window]
ColourBits=32

[Render_OpenGL]
HardwareShaders=1


You can find the Stencil Buffer thing in the il2set.exe, in your game root folder :wink:

edit: maybe this will help for tweaking:

Hope this will help Big Grin

Did you also changed the Stencil buffer thing?

+ Running the game in openGL?

And what's your OS?

. - Silencer84 - 24.03.2010

As i've said, i've checked all those things off the list.
Buffering is on too Wink
I've gone through setup to ensure that buffering and OpenGL are a go.
My previous IL2 install had the same till i fixed it and the water became great,
but now it seems i have to do this step again: make landscape perfect.
I've tried all the editing, still nothing works.

OS = Windows Vista Home Premium, 32 bit
GPU = nVidia 8800 GT

And i have nasty aliasing, though i try to force AA in my graphic card driver setup, it doesn't have effect.

What's the next step?

Peace
