Just when I thought you girls couldn't make the game any prettier. - Void
I can't wait to try the new settings Ann and Arzu
And now that my video editing software is all sorted ... hopefully some FMV of the new settings tomorrow.
To give you an idea of what is possible: With the machine listed on my XFire profile (www.xfire.com/profile/xphix) I am able to run the 6x version of the original settings at around 50 - 60 FPS. (quick version... 2x 500GB HDD, 2GB corsair Ram, Intel E6600 core duo 2.4Ghz, nVidia 7950 chipset dual 512MB PCIe card. Thermaltake 700W PSU, Thermaltake Typhoon CPU cooler with 15cm fan, Creative Labs Soundblaster Live! 5.1 with Livedrive iR.)
Here's some pics of my rig: Day | Night | Exposed (coming soon)
And here's what it looks like with Ann's old settings (2x): Flame Virus Night Time in Downtown 30 minutes work (Halloween)

Hehe, CloudWolf with the exactly same question again, like 3 months ago. Ok, I will tell you why. The Bazman Sisters, special my sister Arzu, had several problems with the admins and SOE. Arzu was banned from mxo forums for her opened kind and was warned from SOE in a special case. It was totaly stupid in my eyes - for a simple sentence which Arzu said ingame. She made her famous Commando Fashion (cmd-beret, green-brown uniform etc) and said "now I look like "Arzu" the terrorist". For this small sentence they put her in the white room, asked her very strange questions and told her, if she speaks about such things again they will ban her from mxo and every other SOE universe games. "Someone" reported her as she said this 'dangerous' sentence. Of course we know who that was in the meantime. The point is following, because I know there is somewhere written that manipulate other files than "useropts.cfg" is not allowed, so I am clever enough to not play with such things anymore and don't cross any borders like my sisterheart. I don't trust them in this point, at end they ban me and say, I place images here which give to new users the feeling the game can look like this by default and the users could be depressed because its not possible with a middle-strong PC. I choosed to do it over the pm channel, I hope you have understanding for that.

Hi all!
Thank you very much for the compliments and also thanks to those which wrote me a pm. I still work on one setting and I must prepare the 5 Versions again (x1.00+), (x1.25), (x1.50), (2.00) and (x4.00). This time I made a "x4.00" as a separate package too - in the last versions was the '400' setting only as deactivated block included. I made the experience that the difference between '200' and '400' is not very big for the PC (frame rate). When you log in with the '400' version and wait 2 Minutes before you start to running arround, it works very well. But that is only necessary for PCs with 1GB RAM and 256MB video, PCs with more power have anyway no problem with. I heard "phi" made her additional "x6.00" version and he is happy with the result. Okay, give me lil bit time, I make the last tests, because I try some new settings and won't send the (cfg) files twice to all ppl which asked for them. All of you, who sent me a pm will receive the files today or tomorrow. I have a full inbox of requests for the files and I am very happy that you like the graphic. Big thanks to Arzu, she made all these wonderful photos.

As promised I've been muckin' with my settings and here's what I've got: (Please note that I'm running a core-duo, 2GB RAM and an nVidia 7590 and these settings are at the limits of nicely playable. Missions run smoothly because the interior distances are much shorter)
The first view of Richland. (Can you see trees in Tabor Park from Mara C? I can.)
From the roof of MetaCortex.
MetaCortex Arial View.
Sunrise over Tabor Park.
Bathary Warf.
And yes... You may have noticed that the buildings in the background are in colour. Turns out that the trick is to make the fog max distance Further than the skybox distance.
MXO - "options.cfg" and "useropts.cfg"
Hi phi!
Oh yes, that are really very nice photos. And this sky box skyscrapers thing is very funny, as I said Ann found out how to make the skyscrapers look more realistic (my msg with subway pics), it was exactly this. It happened accidently as she put in a wrong value and the whole fog was away and the skyscrapers looked more as photos than a computer graphic. But this fog is necessary, that is a sure thing, without it we have an unrealistic result, in my eyes. You did it perfectly. I find your values (difference between the sky box and the fog is very realistic). Very good work "phi", great.

Sorry, I forget to say, that this last screenshot (Bathary Warf) is absolutely perfect - It looks like a photo nearly. I copied it in my MXO Album, I collect the best MXO photos from other users too. This one is now my new favorite this month.
[•] The photos from your workplace are interesting, so many computers.
