Equipping pistol reveals hidden uber vegetation AA!! WTF?????

[m3dude]

yeah buddy i know what resolution is. that doesnt rly relate to any of your ridiculous pistol aa claims, and has nothing to do with u claiming your monitor automatically downsizes it to 1280x960(LOL@that).

LOL@you, because it does it in a kind of way, but youre to dumb to understand that. What i try to say here is that on my monitor it looks like the downsized picture that was downsized from 1920x to 1280x. Its like speaking to a 3 year old kid. This is a damn waste of my time. I told you to watch the movie witch shows this, but youre still bitching about me beeing a liar...

Resolution

Display resolution, often simply called Resolution, refers to the total amount of visual information on a display screen. In computer graphics, the smallest unit of graphical information is called a Pixel - a small dot with a particular color and brightness. Every computer image on your screen is a pixellated sample of the original 3D information contained in your graphics card, because that is how it winds up being displayed on a monitor. When you change the resolution in a game, you are telling the game to provide more or less pixels, and hence more or less samples of that original information for your system to process and display on screen. In general the higher the resolution, the clearer and better the image will look, but the more effort this will take for your system to draw all this information, resulting in lower FPS.

The resolution setting in a game or in Windows tells you precisely how many pixels are used to display an image. Resolution is typically shown in pixel width x pixel height format. So a game running at '1280x1024' resolution for example means there are 1,280 x 1,024 = 1,310,720 pixels in total on the screen making up the image. This value can also be expressed in Megapixels (millions of pixels), which in this example would be around 1.3 megapixels. The human eye takes all these pixels and at a reasonable distance perceives them as a single smooth image, much like looking at an image in a newspaper from a distance as opposed to close up.


You still dont get it? When playing on a higher resolution eveything gets more detailed and less jaggied. You must have a brain damage or something. How can 1920x1440 fit on my 19 inch screen? It can technically but not practically because my monitor is not big enough, when taking a screenshot in 1920x1440 the res will be the same, but it wont be that big when running on my screen. Resolution changs to 1280x960 for the visual on the monitor it gets downsized, compressed in a way, so you dont think 1920x1440 will look better than 1280x960? Running in 1920x1440 will have the same effect on my screen as taking a 1920x1440 image and downsize it to 1280x960. I.e will look smoother, more detailed and less jaggied then if running directly on 1280x960. Einsten is the only one dumb enough to agree with you. Stop making a damn fool out of yourself...

It is you who is the idiot. You're making no sense. Lets see if I'm getting this right. You think that you have Crysis running at 1920x1440. So it renders it at that and then downsizes it and sends it to your monitor to display at 1280x960? That isn't how things work. Whatever is being displayed on your monitor is what is being rendered. There's no ifs, ands, or buts about it. Do you have an LCD? If so, you shouldn't be able to set the resolution above it's native res (1280x960?).

he probably has a crt and doesnt know enough about how they work. he thinks the monitor is automatically downsizing games to 1 standard resolution(in this case 1280x960). hes pretty ignorant.

Just enter "con_restricted 0" in the console and press "F12" and it will make screenshots of the actual resolution that you run the game at and adds them to the "My Document/Games/Crysis" folder.

Can you also post a screenshot of your current driver control panel (which version? btw) and I'm guessing thats under Vista DX9. I'll try to reproduce this but I can't understand how an ingame weapon change would affect the 3D renderer.

not only affect the 3d renderer, but somehow enable this near supersample quality level of alpha texture aa while not dropping performance much at all.

This thread is funny.

Happy Hanukkah everyone.

If you learn to read you stupid pig you would have seen i said it does it in a kind of way. It doesn't technically change the resolution, it will only look like that when comparing to a picture...

i have a crt yes... you dont read either. Read my post of what i wrote to einsten and you see what i mean. But this will be my last reply to you. Ive been patient but enough is enough! I dont wanna waste more time on idiots like you. Ive hear pretty many here have put you on the ignore list, so i think i will follow their example...

Why would we lock this thread? A better thing would be to ban m3 so this pointless discussion can end... He doesn't understand what i mean anyway.. just confusing everything up. This is not what this thread is about, lets stay OT!
