    *The OVERALL QUALITY caps all settings after it, that can only be changed by changing the setting itself, thats why its IMPORTANT to set it at EXTREME FIRST, then lower what u need after that*

I just bought a new TV, UHD 4k, and i wanted to set them again for the better resolution screen.

    Doesn’t increasing the values for view distance and proffered object view distance tank your FPS. Most will say to lower those to make it silky smooth…

    • @AustinZLive
      @AustinZLive  Рік тому +2

      it would if we weren't countering the increase in view by lowering 5+ more taxing values. but try for yourself and make adjustments where you see fit. i prefer having a potential visual advantage over most people i encounter.

I have MFAA - turned on. I think it makes the antialiasing a little less blurry, not sure about the fps.

    What was the point of copying the 3 settings?

    • @AustinZLive
      @AustinZLive  Рік тому

      - one of the settings was called "viewdistance", and we increased it. so that would be to see further.
      - the other was "scenecomplexity" and we increased that. that gives us more detailed scene rendering at range. (using eye zoom and spotting a guy in a window 300 meters away instead of the window being a non-rendered blur)
      - i think the other setting was related to shadows and we lowered that.. helps game run better using less complex shadows.

      The game IS over a decade old at this point. Besides, I think the way it looks is one of the things that makes DayZ as charming as it is. DayZ's graphics are hard to describe. They look old, but great at the same time. If you can run the game with everything maxed out it really does look quite nice.

      If you´d know a single thing about this game, it´d be that you *never* play on "max settings" because it puts you in disadvantage. But even on "max" settings (without blur, since it´s the most useless setting to exist in videogames, *ever)*
      it still looks like crap, even with optimized shading and Nvidia settings.
