Games / Rainbow Six and V5 - I gotta problem
05 December 2003, 06:44:59
I'm trying to play Rainbow Six - the first one.  The mouse lags in the menu screen.  There are these thin lines jumping diagnally from left to right all over the screen.  The picture is very jittery, even if I'm not moveing it jitters. and the things that are supposed to be see through for ex. like between the steps of a latter - they are black.  Any Ideas thanks.

I don't like those Amiga best settings.  I don't us AA and those settings cause some stability problems and kill performance when playing Day of Defeat.  This is why I'm trying to do my own settings.  And I have completed them.

Here are my questions or comments on Help file that makes it more difficult to understand.

There is no description for 2 Pixel-Per-Clock Rendering.
What setting for 3D Filter Quality actually makes the image sharper.
There is no description for Trilinear Texture Filtering.
There is no description for Hidden Surface Removal.

Thats about it I think.  These things are confusing to be there without descriptions.  I didn't know what they were for, but now I do, but I'm still curious as to any side-effects of them, like they dont tell you that trilinear filtering enabled - disables mult-texturing.

I have a couple of questions about the help file.  First of all, you ever read it.  Check out the description for 3D Filter Quality just as an example.

3D Filter Quality - The display image can be filtered by averaging pixel values. By using this overlay filter, the image quality for full-screen 3D applications can be improved. Selecting the High option will average more pixels than the Normal option, resulting in a smoother but blurrier image, while the Normal option averages fewer pixels for a sharper image. The High setting uses two adjacent horizontal pixels from a line and the two pixels on the line below (a 2x2 box filter) to create one output pixel. The Normal setting uses four adjacent samples on a line (a 4x1 linear filter) to create one output pixel.

Automatic - Select this option to allow your system's software to use video filtering as needed.
Normal - Select this option to use the 4x1 linear filter.
High - Select this option to use the 2x2 box filter for a sharper video image.


Does this make sense to you people?
