The only way that I know of would for the Devs to put in HighRes textures in place of all the ones currently in there. Doing that would kill off a big bunch of the community since a lot of people are already having issues with the current version of the mod.

Yes but issues cause of viewdistance, most cards a able to (better) render textures in hires then higher view distances.

Y'know, I don't think we've put much effort into improving ground textures.

I'll check with the team - this may be something it's not practical to start messing with, but meh, we can see. Even if it's possible don't expect to see any changes immediately lol.

Bear in mind you also need to store the textures, which can cause out of memory crashes (on high textures I seem to get this crash every 3rd or 4th match - Bf2 doesn't seem to give all of the memory back on consecutive match loads :P ).

All of the new models/textures seem very high quality in comparison to the vanilla stuff. It's amazing how much they are squeezing out of the old engine, and how nice things can look with a 'last generation' engine, and we can be certain that there's lots more to come :D

As of the 1.3 Patch, you can no longer set Ultra High quality, the highest value which works for these settings is 3, which is also the maximum possible when using the in-game settings.


so..

Hope to see some better ground textures, thanks!

We can easily increase the texture look to make it look higher rez (shrink the textures size ingame as its already tiled). This those cause major lag once you get to a higher size and high tiles sizes.The engine just downs support it correctly for use to go wild.

We are quickly out growing the bf2 engine ;P

Is that a subtle PR2 reference :D ? Forget about when PR 0.95 is being relesed, PR2 is going to be the stuff!

Before anyone get's there hopes up PR2 is still a long ways down the pipes. Have fun with PR1 for now. For those of us that have been playing for years now that fact that 1.00 is around the proverbial corner is enough to make your hair stand on end.
