Haze / Fog Removal

[3N1GM4]

Hey guys, basically only play on EGO servers, and since the insmod.org forums are down right now, figured i could ask you guys...


Seeing as how I can see further with my sniper rifle when im zoomed out, is there any sort of way i can see further? All my settings are on high, and my HDR is turned off... anything would help, thanks!

I don't know man sorry.

I've found with HDR turned on I can see farther

so i take it they fixed the glare it used to cause?

 

[Kamori]

I dunno the glare, but HDR always adds bloom, but its kind of a random bloom... I've gotten used to it though and surprisingly it didn't affect my FPS much

what u do is turn to the side a bit and u can see farther

This problem won't be addressed until INS goes Orange. It's on the list for Beta 3 promises. Supposedly it's because of limitations of the engine.

Halflife2.net:Porting Insurgency onto the Orange Box engine (Beta 3) is a mammoth task alone, yet you've already managed to do a great deal. What new things on the OB engine will you be able to take advantage of to bring more to Insurgency?

Spielmann: In short: better support for permanent unlocks and achievements, better performance on multicore machines… there are many engine quirks that have been ironed out in the newer versions of Source and we expect the better performance to give us enough overhead to be able to increase the level of detail in textures and models throughout the entire game increasing the framerate. We also expect to be able to eliminate some of the limitations of the actual version such as the reduced visibility range of the sniper rifles, or mitigate other related graphical side-effects.
