Graphics mod (multiplayer compatible)

I felt like sharing this mod here. It's a trend to play on low graphics for visibility and high FPS. But maybe some of you want to play with better graphics. Obviously at it's core this game will keep looking potato, but you know... better than nothing.

If you play on simple servers, you will notice updated textures and some other minor changes with this mod. Reshade also changes the overall look of the game (which is included).

The system requirements are quite high. Don't download the mod if you are using Phenom II/Quad series CPU and HD7770/GTX650Ti or lower level GPU. Sadly the game engine just wasn't optimized for this amount of high res textures.
Please share your performance results if you downloaded it though.

More info on Moddb page along with download links.
https://www.moddb.com/mods/high-definit … s-pack-091

The screenshots are from custom mod version at 4k, tons of AA, 16x AF and forced AO. So don't be disappointed if it doesn't look that much better for you while playing on multiplayer. :P
BTW you can force Ambient Occlusion through nvidia inspector and Nvidia Freestyle effects might work too, but i didn't test them yet.

A comparison video from the previous version:

Please give it a like/sub if you can, because i will lose my partnership in 15 days if i don't meet certain numbers and i will lose my glorious monthly 1$ income.

Don't worry, the fog tweak doesn't work on multiplayer. (Along with many other tweaks.) So no advantages there. The screenshots are from "Custom game" mode, which has more stuff in it.

Nice idea.

Now make some NFT's of Bf1942 themes and sell the collection, then you make much 1'000x + more money.

Would like the people who said they would try this, now have about a year's use...      1: how was on the long run? 2: still use it? 3: any hiccups?

Re: Graphics mod (multiplayer compatible)

Shing, have you ever thought about creating high poly versions of the vanilla BF1942 static objects and vehicles? Coupled with HD textures, it would really be amazing to see what the results of this would be.

Re: Graphics mod (multiplayer compatible)

I was thinking about it and it was always requested by some people. But if you add new details to a model, it needs new textures, lightmap and maybe even collision model. Too much work for me, right now. Also other things can be updated too, more particle effects, better animated vegetation and many minor things.

I was always thinking about making this bigger. Like making an own site for the mod, hype shit up and maybe there would be supporters to work on this full time (probably no chance). But not sure if people would care enough... maybe i'm not even skilled enough to work on this.

So for now, it's mostly a texture mod. Maybe AI upscalers will soon replace me anyway... and things like RTX Remix. For now, i can work on it and if things don't change, it will take me years to update everything i wanted.
