Thomm Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 "High Dynamic Range"?? Some special kind of graphics rendering mode I do not know how to describe right now. Best regards, Thomm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolColJ Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 makes thing look better basicly better contrast, bloom, highlights but with older Nvidia cards AA will stop working Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centauro Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Actually, HDR in ToW2 stops AA working even with a GeForce 260. No matter what settings you have in ToW2 and control panel. Empire Total War's HDR and AA works togheter with no problem at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolColJ Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 funny thing is, with HDR on the demo looks fine but if I turn it off, I get a weird ghosting issue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centauro Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Yep, you have to uncheck "ambient occlusion" and the ghosts are gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolColJ Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Yep, you have to uncheck "ambient occlusion" and the ghosts are gone. it's off.... I get these giant filled out squares. I'm not the only, others have the same problem.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sneaksie Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 You mean if you turn off HDR and Ambient occlusion you have graphical glitches? Is AA turned on in control panel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolColJ Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 You mean if you turn off HDR and Ambient occlusion you have graphical glitches? Is AA turned on in control panel? yes turing off AA in the control panel fixed it so there is some issue with the AA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lethaface Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 High Dynamic Range "Lighting" to be complete. For example, in RL you see an overbright sun when you walk over a hill when the sun is glaring directly in your face. This causes everything you see to be more bright. HDR lighting tries to mimic those effects ingame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
