those using the injector make sure you turn msaa off :p thats the whole point of the mod :D

ive played through single player with injector on and with it off.
 
I've not played for 4months, was just looking thru this thread for some tips on settings :D

what ingame settings are u using? i use everything on low except mesh quality! which is on ultra!
Will try this as it seems u play BF3 more than u used to play quake3, what does mesh quality do?
edit:
Draw distance aka how far away u can see stuff. U wanna keep this on ultra.
Think I had this on low :(

Might try the injector thing, my system is pretty poor tho :( 60-70fps on metro, have maxfps on 45 to keep it stable on caspian high textures atm.

Has anyone played with digital vibrance (nvidia) or saturation (ati) ?
I tried last night on saturation +200 and even tried hue +10 to fix the colours

This is why i stopped using it. Looked horrid to me without 4xaa even with using the fxaa injector. I just couldnt stand the jaggies. Once you've had 4xaa for a long time, theres no going back.

When i used 4xaa + the injector it harmed performance so i had no choice but to remove it which is a shame because i did prefer the crisper image and much better colour saturation.

Havent used digital vibrance in the nv control panel. But my monitor, (benq fp241w) has various pre set modes that you can select via a menu button. Using the dynamic setting mode sharpens and brightens the colours, but it can look a bit too bright. So i use the fxaa injector, though i may remove it now and just use the latest nv drivers as its included in them.

msx4 and the injector on theres basically no difference in image or not very much saying its jagged is a bit hmmm wrong tbh. look at the jaggies there so bad :rolleyes::p

i did hundreds of screenies max settings with no msaa on and it looked stunning

screenshots (ultra everything no msaa plus injector)

Made me LOL. :D
 
Damavand peak

Such a beautiful scenery but ruined by poor hourglass map design. The tunnel is serious bottleneck in advancing forward to the other side.
True, playing on it just now. It's a terribly thought out map, chopper can be useful. But all too often it's been flown by an idiot who wants to just go and shoot things up.

That might be the case on singleplayer, i dont play that. I stood ontop of G building on Gulf Of Oman when i tested it during a 48 player match. Jaggies were in abundance im afraid as soon as i took off the 4xaa.
 
Cant get a decent round in today at all, every server i go on, pings of 80+. The game is jerking about so much it's hurting my eyes.:(

This just made me think of Kubra Dam in BF2, I can't believe the tiny scale of the maps in BF3 in comparison!

Has anyone managed to fly the little bird through the tunnel on Damavand Peak?!
 
I'm terrible at flying in BF3, but I always enjoyed flying the gunship through the bridge on 2142.

Also, ballistic scope on the SV98 is so much better than the stupid traingley thing it comes with. Can't see anything with that, and can't tell whether you're aiming in the right place unless you crank the video settings up a ton.

Edit: Also, why do people use the taclight on snipers? Was playing Metro, sitting in the buildings at A, and people sniping from the Russian spawn were so easy to spot (especially since the taclight appears to glow through walls....).

Was done ages ago by some random on youtube. Isn't hard, just hope you don't run into a tank.
