markgame Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 I'm not much of a ModSlut but having a broadband connection I couldn't resist downloading the Realcolor Mod and giving it a whirl. I installed all five thousand plus files and fired up the game and yeah, some of it looked better, I guess. I've played several missions with the mod, but then decided to change back to the originals BMP files, which I had stored in another folder. I then played a couple more missions and it occurs to me that I'm not really seeing much difference between the two sets of BMPs. Am I missing something? I've got a PC, nVidia Ti4400 video card, 384MB RAM and an Athlon 900 processor, so I have the horsepower to run the game at 1024x768. I'm playing on a 21" Trinitron, so the monitor shouldn't be a factor. And no, I'm not color-blind, I'm sure that would be someone's next question. Is there anyone else who has observed this, or am I just missing the point of the mod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pvt. Ryan Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 I haven't installed the mod yet, but I believe its primary purpose is to subdue the stock graphics so that they look more realistic. However, CMBB's stock graphics are not nearly as bright as CMBO's where Gunslinger's mods were really noticeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
André Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 Same here, only noticed a small change after installing the mod... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P5 Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 I didn't notice that much difference in vehicles, but when I look at the landscape, I think it's much more realistic. The trees and especially the general overview is much more realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agua Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 Just reiterating what others have said. It merely tones down the colors. I installed only the landscape/terrain/building .bmps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
