making w0w look pretty

[zazelamel]

hey guys, a while back there was a whole load of commands that made w0w lok real nice and i really wanna find it again only ive looked everywhere and cant see it, if any of you know the command lines i would massively appreciate it if you could give them to me as wow is looking more and more bland these days ( esp while lvling alts)

Make WoW nicer with a few console commands

/console groundEffectDensity 256
/console groundEffectDist 140
/console detailDoodadAlpha 100
/console horizonfarclip 2112
/console farclip 777
/console characterAmbient 0
/console smallcull 0
/console skycloudlod 3


Obviously, it will probably lower your framerate a little and you can revert the changes by typing the following :

/console groundEffectDensity 16
/console groundEffectDist 1
/console horizonfarclip 1305
/console farclip 177
/console characterAmbient 1
/console smallcull 1
/console skycloudlod 1
/console detailDoodadAlpha 1

thanks a billion nordic

[Nordic]

ur welcome

[Amgyn]

can you post comparison screen shots?

[Deleted]

be aware though, that its not always looking better in the end.
e.g. /console groundEffectDensity 256 will show lots and lots of nice grass in stranglethorn, while in netherstorm or EotS the little stones on the ground just look ridiculous, so be careful with this command

[Nordic]

true. i tried it, lowered my fps too much so i put it bak to normal
just not worth it imo

[Xyllo]

Its verry good, not lowing my fps after all, all the time 20 ;/.

[Amgyn]

wow thats a huge difference.. im going to have to try it at home.

[Laeh]

Yes the difference is HUGE, But my fps drops to ~10, Becouse i've got a schitty pc

[Infekt]

I didn't really notice a difference, is that a bad thing? >_<

[raszunna]

AMAZING lol wow looks SICK.... but now i lag QQ lol

[gamz247]

Apparently horizonfarclip can be set even higher now.

6266 is the new maximum.

Can we have a comparison screenie?

[Painic]

Can we have a comparison screenie?

No, but take my word it makes wow look great! (especially areas with grass!)
I have run a DC:E6750 CPU and a GeForce 8800gts and it runs at 60fps (max) with these settings if i put multisampling at x1 with max resolution (1680x1050)

Note: when you use the video settings you need to run the macro again as it resets on my pc.
