Lt Belenko Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I recently upgraded my rig from a 6 year old Athlon to a i7-2700k/GT560. I never did much modding because I had all the video settings at faster/less quality. And I figured mods were eye candy and those details would never really showed up any way. I did use 2 mods - grid lines and no music at start. In my first game on the new machine, I zoomed on the sole of a boot. Holy cow! I am impressed. I was expecting to see a wafflestomper and was a bit disappointed by the pattern, but realized it was accurate for the time period. Who's the best modder and what do ya'll recommend? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splinty Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Ari's HD Terrain mod is what I use, it's excellent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agua Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I'm using Ari's HD presently as well. Vein's terrain mod is pretty nice too. There are elements from each terrain mod that I have preferences for, but it is such a PitA to go through picking out the individual files for customization. It is possible to do it though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee_Vincent Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Definitely all Ari's HD mods, they transform the game. My mod folder is 7GB lol. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hister Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I mostly use Ari's HD Terrain mod mixed with some other texture mods. Game looks so much better with them... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanir Ausf B Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 I tried using Aris's hi-res gridded terrain, but the grid lines were so thin I couldn't see them unless I was close to the ground. So I'm still using Niessuh's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theFightingSeabee Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I would highly recommend some sound mods like what akd supplies. Also, get Juju's interface and veins explosions and tracers. I love all those. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Williams Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I use Vein's terrain desaturation V2, and am happy with it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinnart Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I wish I had a better rig than my 7yr old one I have so I could try Aris terrains as I think they look very impressive from the screens I have seen of them. For those with lower power rigs as I have I recommend using a low-resolution mod such as Wolfe’s low shimmer terrain to improve FPS. I personally use a low resolution, grirdded (khaki colored) version I made of the Syrope terrain mod from CMSF. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
