  • Settings, let's talk about TGC Quality Settings!

    With all the people buying expensive hardware in order to get super-duper image quality in TGC I thought it was time for a thread discussing how to actually achieve this!

    It would be nice to buy a top-end graphics card and turn all the settings to the max but in TGC that's a sure fire way to get terrible results. There are actually 9 quality related settings in TGC and one needs to understand them all for the best results.

    I spent one looong evening once playing with the settings. After all that work I thought it would be good to post so others wouldn't have to re-invent the wheel. There's actually a lot to cover so it will be uber long but hopefully it covers all the basic information needed to optimize the video quality settings.

    Since it's long, I'll split it into multiple posts. They'll cover:

    1) What to look for when adjusting image quality
    2a) TGC settings that affect quality - the easy ones
    2b) TGC settings that affect quality - the tricky ones
    3) How to tune HQ Tree Count, HQ Tree Distance and Object Detail
    4) Quick tip for seeing the effect of Tree Count, Tree Distance and Object Detail visually
    5) Suggested TGC settings

    If you have something to add or I've gone horribly wrong somewhere please feel free to post up!
