I will try to at least come up with 5 images a week. It is just hard because the quality of the background keeps droping, the hills and trees on Forest colony look HORRIBLE inless you are right on top of them.
A suggestion? Put together a couple of your best looking scenic shots from before all these changes, and replicate them today. I'd really like to be able to conclusively show PGI the differebce. - I honestly don't think they realize the amount that visual quality has degraded.

Just checking, but you're aware of the recent graphics settings bug with UI 2.0? High was low, medium was high, etc. Supposedly fixed now, so it might be worth changing all your settings and re-saving.

However if that's not the case please do put together a set of pictures that show how the graphics have changed. Down in low/medium fidelity land I haven't noticed much difference (unsurprisingly), but I'm really interested to see how it's changed for high end users.

First and foremost I am performing a completely clean install of MWO, as my copy has been patched/patched/patched over and over from 2012 to present.

Following that I will go though with a fine tooth comb my User.cfg from scratch building an all new one, and do a scratch tweak set on my display drivers just for the game.

Give me a little bit of time to get this done. Then I will start a comparison of the detail loss if I still experience it.

There is a chance that I had old code laying around from having a install that has been writen/re-writen over 2 dozen times.

Looks like your lance mates are a little camera shy. Just do what Lordred does.

That explains that stalker picture a year ago that alphaed into your face shortly after you took the picture.

I know, I just couldn't resist that joke. I'm starting to get overly cheerful, better go back to the patch feedback forum.

So, do people prefer 1920x1200, like I have been doing. Or do people want more 16x9 love like when I did 2560x1440?

I personally prefer the higher resolution, so I can shamelessly crop phone backgrounds without ending up with a really low-res wallpaper.

Damn these 1080p smartphones.
