I would hope much sooner, but as it stands I am kinda burnt on MWO, the game play is very stale right now.

Understandable. No sense in doing something if you're not having fun. A break might do you some good

What program exactly do you use to get the colors to look like that?

Here's the best I've managed with this new patch:




Yes, that is a chunk of "ice" stuck to the Stalker.

Yes, everything is transparent.

Yes, this patched butchered my experience.

Check the settings in your video cards control software. This could be the anti-aliasing and anisotropic filtering being forced on that was causing x-ray like vision very similar to this a short bit back.

have your video drivers been recently updated or tinkered with?

Some things that tick me off.

*The ingame settings have been lowered again, "Very high" is akin to medium settings.
*The new UI is many things, intuitive is not a word I would use to describe it.
*The worn glass. Lets get things straight, worn glass does not look worse when the sun is to your back, worn glass looks at its worst when there is bright light comming though its front in relation to looking though it, the pits and scratches reflect and scatter the light which creats hundreds or thousands of pin ****** of light assaulting you. This does not look like battle worn glass, this looks akin to 'frozen glass' A feat that should be impossible in a battlemech.
*Cockpits are still open in the back allowing light to come in from behind wasting rendering power with the shadows and reflections of a light source comming in from the back. you only need to make a wall with 10 polygons to enclose the cockpits. do it.
*Motion Blur does not equal Anti-Aliasing stop mixing the two up.

Trying to make it available to lower end PCs?
From the eyes of a programmer the new UI has huge potential to make the game better. But I suppose you've blinded yourself
I stand neutral on glass
I'd prefer a closed cockpit. Might make the cockpit lights useful.
I'm not very familiar with advanced graphics so I'll take your word on it.

Also, nice pics!

There's enough evidence to suggest that the quality sliders are broken. Broken enough that "low" is often better quality then "medium". Until the relearn the basics of programming and fix it your best bet is to use a custom setting and keep adjusting everything till you get the actual "very high" settings.

Already went back to manually setting things In the user.cfg. one thing I wish is that we could have 4k resolution texture bases for high end users.

Have you gotten anything to work in User.cfg? I'm still struggling to turn of Post Processing, I can't stand the blur.

Turn off post aa.

That's how it should work and what I've always done in the past, but custom video settings don't work right now. Was hoping for a way in used.cfg (that still works in the current build) to do that.
