The new reflections are looking good. I've always stuck with the first version of the updated SS.net reflections as every new version just seems to get brighter and ruin the look of the cars. Those look about right though, at least from the pics

What changes have you made to the track reflections?

Great work Caspar, but I think those night reflections, look very much like the sunny ones

I made the track environment files smoother since the ones most used were a bit blocky, and you could see that in the reflections on the car. I also changed the color and it is slightly tinted blue in clear conditions, as you can see on the truck in particular because I wasn't finished with it for CUP and GNS when I did the screenshot.

Course Morten, I didn't just spend several hours trying to get them proper

I see Caspar, sorry. I was fooled by the shadows and the track color. But I can clearly see the night reflections now. Looking good

And please take my critisism contructive, as that's the way it's meant

The tweaks at the bottom are just the same as the original 30+ site tweaks (LINK)

The calculator is interesting though, it seems to suggest a much lower texture size than the original tweak guide does.

Caspar, can you reupload your V2 Reflections please? And upload your "weather" modifications too please.

When your spotter is giving you information you can also read the info at the top of your screen. The text color (font color) is red. Now i want to know, is there a possibility to change that color into, lets say white?

at some tracks, my interior is getting blurry, just like the cars. What is causing this effect?

I think it has something to do with the memory of your gfx card, as in not enough. You could try to increase the anisotropic level in your rend_dxg.ini (or rend_ogl.ini if you run that).

i have 2x256mb ASUS 7300GT Silent cards, in SLI configuration.



i will try to change "AnisotropicLevel=4" into "AnisotropicLevel=8".

IIRC it's a D3D configuration mismatch (are you getting things like trees blurred as well, and grass not being as sharp as it should be?).

The way I sorted it was to run NRGraphics Tweeker, but that introduces other problems with replays etc. so now whenever I change resolution (for racing or capturing) I make a backup of these values and copy them into the new core.ini made by NRtweeker.



AFAIK the replay saivng/loading issue is when the MaxBlockSize & PoolSize have different values, NRGraphics Tweeker changed MaxBlockSize to something else which was why I had pin sharp graphics during last weeks truck race but only 16 laps of replay, the next night I changed MaxBlockSize to match Poolsize and all was good, 200MB file, pin sharp graphics etc.

i tried it, but no change.

and to answer this Erwin, extract the file driving.lyt from layout.dat, open it up with a hex editor and search the term spccOutput, below that you will find 4 sets of figures, 0xc800000f change them to 0xcfffffff will turn the text very light blue (I was just mucking about, so I think it#s c800000 that has to be changed and the last 0f left as is, but anyway save the file and make sure it's in the layout folder.

You can also change the font size and background color around those bits as well, check the fonts folder/dat file first to make sure the font exists, and the background color is slightly further above labelled bkgSpccOutput but I couldn't seem to find the grey color setting in the quick look I just had (it's around somewhere, maybe as a std file).

Yuk at that screenie, sorry I'm stuck, that's what sorted it for me, last resort, move core.ini rend_dx.ini and whatever the opengl one is to another folder so that they are not in the NR2003 folder, reboot, setup graphics from config.exe - run NRGraphics Tweeker (you did select "Apply changes" right?) then start game see if that makes any difference (don't forget to change the netcode as well as it'll default back to 2),

sorry for bugging everyone. I started with working out this page: http://www.30plusracing.com/documents/N ... eaks.shtml
I have now very good graphics now.
