Discussion / Graphics Improvements

« on: February 05, 2012, 06:06:53 PM »

I just recently found my copy of RA2 in a box, and have become re-addicted to it. I love the game, but the one thing it lacks (other than physics accuracy) is graphical quality. The game is built on DirectX 8.1 (11.5 years old), and I've begun diving into the deep dark depths of screwing with the EXE of a game known to be finicky and temperamental at best. I'd like to upgrade it to take advantage of DX9, because there is no real need to go past that (I don't really need it to look like Crysis, though that in itself looks nearly as good in DX9 as it does in DX10). If anyone would like to join me in my quest for eye-candy, feel free to reply or shoot me a pm. I hope this doesn't fall under "Do not post about making RA3 or another new game", as that is not my goal, I just want to have a better looking RA2.
