Built a new PC and installed BAT. Now I have spiky clouds
« on: November 14, 2023, 12:50:40 PM »

Hello everyone,

Over the weekend, I built a new PC with an AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D and a Radeon RX 7800XT. I copied over my previous config.ini on my laptop to my PC, but now I have spiky clouds. Any tips on how to fix this?

most likely you have the usual problem with the latest AMD drivers that don't support perfect mode I can see that you have HardwareShaders=0. Not much you can do beside trying to install the last driver version that used to work properly

You don't mention if your laptop had dedicated graphics card or not, don't use the laptops settings as I assume like most laptop users these are compromised graphics settings.

Over the weekend, I built a new PC with an AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D and a Radeon RX 7800XT.

Trouble is the RX 7000 series is not supported by the older drivers you would need to get this fixed.
Hardwareshaders do not work both in OpenGL and DirectX mode.
With DirectX it looks a little better than with OpenGL as the drivers do not suport the old OpenGL version this game uses, but sadly it wont look as good as it did on an older AMD or Nvidia card.

I got the same problem with a RX 7900XTX.

My laptop had an nvidia GTX930M in it, which served me well for Il-2 1946. It's a shame that I can't get my AMD card to work with the clouds, especially considering I may not be able to get drivers old enough to fix the clouds.

It's not just the clouds that are not rendering properly, its missing a whole lot of OpenGL features the game uses, thats why DirectX looks better with these cards.
Funny thing is the terain/landscape looks like its using Tessellation under DirectX with these cards, really weird and cant explain it as the game should not support this.

My AMD Radeon controll center settings are all in Dutch but basicly you want to make a profile for this game and Overide all the game settings and set them to max, and also set all the other Quality settings to max.

What can I do to make the game look as good as possible without the spiky clouds? If I need to change to DirectX instead, I will.

You need to change this line:
[GLPROVIDER]
GL=Opengl32.dll

to this:
[GLPROVIDER]
GL=dx8wrap.dll

That changes it to DirectX, and fixes the clouds

I am still doing research/testing but i got it on pause now as its not a priority at the moment.
Sadly i wrote a extensive Conf.ini guide (wich i really need as non of the others are as extensive or complete) with a discription of what it does with every line and how things are linked to each other but i lost the backup it was on, and it was posted on battle-fields.com but that site no longer exists anymore :(

DirectX makes the ground look bad instead.

Here's a screenshot with Landscape Lighting on High



The second one looks good, though that cost me cloud render distance.

Theres a fix for the ground with DirectX, atleast the ground did not look like that wen i ran it in DirectX mode.

Just tested and i do not have the ground artifacts under DirectX.

Change your Conf.ini with these lines for DirectX:

[Render_DirectX]
TexQual=3
TexMipFilter=1
TexCompress=0
TexFlags.UseDither=0
TexFlags.UseAlpha=0
TexFlags.UseIndex=0
TexFlags.PolygonStipple=0
TexFlags.UseClampedSprites=0
TexFlags.DrawLandByTriangles=1
TexFlags.UseVertexArrays=1
TexFlags.DisableAPIExtensions=0
TexFlags.ARBMultitextureExt=1
TexFlags.TexEnvCombineExt=1
TexFlags.SecondaryColorExt=1
TexFlags.VertexArrayExt=1
TexFlags.ClipHintExt=0
TexFlags.UsePaletteExt=0
TexFlags.TexAnisotropicExt=1
TexFlags.TexCompressARBExt=1

TexFlags.TexEnvCombine4NV=0
TexFlags.TexEnvCombineDot3=1
TexFlags.DepthClampNV=0
TexFlags.SeparateSpecular=1
TexFlags.TextureShaderNV=0

HardwareShaders=0

Shadows=2
Specular=2
SpecularLight=2
DiffuseLight=2
DynamicalLights=1
MeshDetail=2
VisibilityDistance=3

Sky=2
Forest=0
LandShading=3
LandDetails=2

LandGeom=2
TexLarge=1
TexLandQual=3
TexLandLarge=1

VideoSetupId=17
Water=2
Effects=1
ForceShaders1x=0
PolygonOffsetFactor=-0.15
PolygonOffsetUnits=-3.0

Still messing around with it to get the quality even better.

I tried that but could not access the forum section, probably needed to be logged in to get to the forrum section and thats something that doesnt work in the Waybackmachine :(
