Dark Mod in 4K Vision

Recommended Posts

I finally got the game to recognize a resolution of 4096 x 2304 and the game looks even more fantastic. I'm running the game using an EVGA GeForce GTX 970 SSC ACX 2.0 video card and I've noticed no drop in FPS. I'm also using an 88" HDTV as my monitor.

There's not a big "PC Master Race" contingency here other than PC Elitists who rightly think T1\T2 had better

gameplay than the console oriented successors. Resolution scaling is cool but consider that there's still a decent

amount of drooling over retro looking TG fan missions like Skacky's "Endless Rain" it's not the ultimate thing around here.

Still, it's good to see things chugging along at that resolution...

TDM tends to be more susceptible to CPU related performance issues than GPU ones except where extremely

large amounts of shadow draw come into play (where both are hit hard).

 

Biker is working on his last fix-ups to "No Honor Among Thieves" so you'll need to report back on how that runs with everything

cranked.

(Yeah, shameless promotion... but traffic is traffic folks...)

So, should we add 4096 x 2304 as one of the resolutions for the menu, e.g. is it standard?

Whoever is in charge of the http://wiki.thedarkmod.com/website needs to update the resolution page cos my 4096 x 2304 16:9 4K resolution isn't on the page as being a custom setting. The options only go up to 3840 x 2160 for a 16:9 custom setting on that site.

The table doesn't list all possible combinations, because the list is basically endless - everything your hardware supports would probably work in TDM.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
