Graphic Mods

Postby The_PC_Snob » 23 Jun 2013, 14:49

I'd like to create a few Supreme Commander stills to use in my LP and I was wondering if anyone could recommend some graphic overhaul mods for the game. I'm pretty sure there are some of them out there for more detailed models or the like.

If not, not too much of a problem, the graphics are still awesome in the expansion.

look here: viewtopic.php?f=57&t=4136&start=40

additionally, you can search for "graphicenhancement mod v1.1 gpg" - this mod gives you nicer trees.

Thanks for the reply, but particle effects and the like is not what I'm looking for. And in-game tree models will be irrelevant for what I have in mind.

I'll keep looking.

the biggest mod for supcom:fa is called blackops, 4DC, and total mayhem. they have a lot of new units (i do not know, whether they are more detailed, because i play the game on the lowest graphics settings). but blackops is as easy as starting a featured mods game from the FAF lobby...so try it (if that is what you mean).

I'm looking for graphic upgrades, not new units or models.

Shaders were updated in FAF.

Models are already far more detailed in FA than Supcom 2 or PA, so it's unlikely that they will get any update soon.

Textures... I think they are still holding, don't you ?

Of course they are. And I've noticed the better shading.

I was just hoping there was a mod dedicated to improving further in order to take very close screenshots. My research so far is that FAF is the best improvement on the graphics. Like I said, it is no problem to use FA models and textures, it is just that if there were some improved ones around, it'd be even better. No need to get defensive about it. I was asking here only because I trusted the better knowledge of mods from the community.

I'm not defensive, I'm telling you why there is no further enhancement.

A texture update would be nice but would probably kill any GFX.

For the sake of completion, here's the kind of stuff I wanted the graphic mods for:

EDIT: Just a minor edit on the Mantis one. I noticed the Symbiont climbing on it was almost invisible on certain monitors.
