Make Wow better than max settigns!
I found on the forums a way to make wow look even better than the max settings for all you guys with computers that are faster than mine:
Maybe you have seen this already, but there are a bunch of commands to increase the in-game graphics beyond the "maximum" in video options.
It might have been posted before, i dont know. Just thought i'ld share it with you.
Mind you: if you do not have a high quality computer, don't bother with this trick. it will only decrease your FPS.
If you have already all settings maxed out in WoW and still feel your compter has power left to increase the quality more, this is for you.
I tested this a while ago (when i bought a new processor and videocard) and it really works well.
try it.
Gfx enhancement macro: WoW will look better
Some players found a way to improve WoW graphics by manipulating several console commands. The following macro will do the job:
/console farclip 777
/console horizonfarclip 6226
/console groundeffectdensity 256
/console groundeffectdist 140
/console smallcull 0
/console skycloudlod 3
/console characterambient 0
You have to restart WoW for some of the effects to be used.
What does this do?
• The vegetation can be seen from miles away (grass flowers etc) plus there seems to be FAR more of it.
• The "bloom" effect seems to be more vivid.
• The view distance is greatly increased.
• Everything seems to be more sharp and crisp.
• The weather effects appear to be more intense.
However depending on your hardware you might encounter some fps issues (low framerates), so here is the macro to revert the changes (you can also go to video options and pull all the detail options to minimum):
/console groundEffectDensity 16
/console groundEffectDist 1
/console horizonfarclip 1305
/console farclip 177
/console characterAmbient 1
/console smallcull 1
/console skycloudlod 1
/console detailDoodadAlpha 1

Getting back into Kara
So my goal for the guild has always been getting into Zul'aman before the expansion comes out. With Mike and Audry's subscriptions running out and several tanks needing teir gear I think Kara is one of the fastest ways we can get to that goal, especially as we get to the point where we can clear it out (or at least get up to chess) in one Wednesday evening. Although doing heroics is also a blast, I wanted to discuss here the things that are keeping us from being able to get back in there so we can see how we can get around them.
Part of the problem is having less than 10 on or people not being able to start at a set time leaving us waiting for more. Since we've got tanking and about half of healing covered, (Once Gavin is back and the new tanks are geared then we'll have all the tanks and healers we'll need as I can heal) it should be pretty easy to find a set of substitute dps'ers; the question is if we'll pug them every night or if we should try to get a set group of people to show up each week.
Anyway, I figured it's time we start talking about
a) how to do this and
b) if you guys even want to do this.
