Topic: BF 1942 mod HD

Battlefield: High Definition is a modification for Battlefield 1942. The goal of the mod is to bring as many visual enhancements to the game as possible.

Battlefield: High Definition was developed and tested by Lieutenant Clone (Dennis Robinson) of Beach Assault Studios.

The modification brings the following enhancements to Battlefield 1942:

    * Drastically increased view distances
    * Increased the rendering quality of the terrain
    * Increased the rendering distance of most vehicles
    * Most vehicles will stay on the map permanently when destroyed
    * Dead bodies remain for five minutes (you will rarely see them disappearing)
    * Added blood effects
    * Added third person view
    * Many more minor tweaks

Doesnt look so good to me. Besides view distance its a waste of hard drive space.

Makes the whole game look more realistic to me.. and its hardly a "waste of hard drive space" when it's less than 50 MBs all together.

Not impressed.  The fog was partly there due to graphics hardware, but it also prevents maps from becoming sniper havens and adds the illusion of scale to the maps.

And with no changes in textures, it's hardly HD or an improvement at all.

I thought it looked damned awesome. They can always tweak it to make snipers less effective.

Re: BF 1942 mod HD

It does look slightly better, but needs to have some better textures to truly be "HD"
