Motion blur, bloom : make them options!

Yoma · 06-07-2009, 09:21 AM

As a lot of people i tend to get sick after playing an hour of blurring and flashing.
Kegetys made a wonderfull addon that solves the problem nicely, which basically gives you Arma2 without this hassle and makes the game a lot more enjoyable, the ai at times is simply great!
There is no point in constantly batteling with basic eyesight in a game.

Blur and bloom makes my brain hurt
Please sort it out

Some of the white building with high lighting effect look radioactive !

I'm using Kegety's wonderfull fix.

This fix made the game very playable for me, chernaurus runs like a dream now!

I'm really not a friend of all this "shiny new features" we see in games today.

I don't need the game to simulate things(blur, bloom, dazzle, zoom) happening to my eyes, because my real eyes can react to things happening on the screen themselves.

What I need is nice graphics(like the water now) and a proper antialiasing to get rid of the edges.

Lee said it all....

An official optional optimised Kegetys-style fix would be just lovely, please!

maybe BIS could use it and implement it in vanilla ArmA2 as an option. Would make every body happy.

Why did they waste development time with that crap?

bravo 6 · 06-07-2009, 12:19 PM

I do admit it can bring some realism to certain situations or objects, but it needs improvements thats all..

Because a fully functional post processing system is of great value to the modders? Without integrating it it would be impossible for the german beta testers to test it.

Lol yeah, even though half of the forums complained against it already since the first screens ~1 year ago with this stuff appeared, they did not remove it and nor implemented a option to disable it
