Notes
This is the big one. The rulset has been polished off. As far as I am concerned it is done. Nearly all of the bugs from Promod 3 fixed. The promod settings now for the most part, optional.
Any further changes on this mod will either voted upon before implementation. Or optional.
Todo List
- Make more forced settings optional (Normal map etc..)
- Make settings toggleable via Multiplayer options
- Further improve the lagg situation when changing weapon and autoclimbing (Don't worry the lagg in this release is the same if not better than in promod 3)
- Fix any bugs that crop up along the way
- Able to call timeouts while dead
- Request stats working again
Working On
- More advanced spectator/shoutcaster functions
- Make autoclimb optional / bound to another button / double tap space bar
Graphics settings!
Accessible through your quick chat menu (default "B"). You will see two mod menus. 'Promod' and 'Promod graphics'. Promod is for Bomb drop, Suicide, Stats, and Timeout. Graphics is self explanatory. The graphics settings save to your config so no need to change them every time.
Now most of the graphics promod forces are optional through the menu.
Now how to set it up.
First of all you need to change FOV if you are used to it on older versions. Overall range is 65-90.
The names of the options are dynamic. For example if you have Fullbright on, in the menu it says 'FullBright off' because if you press that button, its what it does. So if on the menu it says 'Stock Lighting' It means you have 'Promod Lighting' on. And so on.
Different settings. The best thing you can do is have a play, find out which you like best.
Ok below I will suggest some settings I recommend for different results:
For Promod 3 graphics:
Fullbright OFF
Stock colours
Stock lighting
So when you look at the menu, it will say 1. Promod Lighting
2. FullBright On
3. Enhanced colours
For Super High visibility*:
FullBright On
Other commands irrelevant because of fullbright's nature
High visibility:
Fullbright OFF
Enhanced colours
Promod lighting
More FPS*:
FOV on minimum
Texture filtering OFF
Fullbright ON
*Note with fullbright on, it does have a lot of strange effects apart from that of lighting removal; green and red explosions, black smoke from guns, black blood and many more. There is nothing I can do about this. They aren't bugs in the mod. It is what full bright does. If you have it on you have to accept its negative impacts too.
Also gamma has a big effect on the settings, so if you change any Promod Graphic options, you may need to adjust gamma. Gamma can be adjusted via Graphics options, or "r_gamma" in console.
Bugs, feedback, anything Speak to Carlisle or JUSZN.
Happy new year!
