Would it be a good idea to put screenshots on this page showing off the differences between the graphics settings? Example below. --Manny 10:36, 6 July 2007 (CDT)

Water reflection

Choose from None, "Sky only", "Sky and terrain", "Sky, terrain, and trees", "Almost everything". Have set to NONE unless you have a semi-old card (FX5600 or better at least) and a good CPU (AMD athlon 2000+, 2GHZ P4). It has a great effect on performance, turning it on will use a lot, but with a good comp it only gives a small drop in performance and it does make the water look nice.

This would be very useful for at least some of the options, but it's a significant amount of work. Are you volunteering? - Dashiva 13:45, 6 July 2007 (CDT)

Wouldn't it be better if the images of the same setting (i.e Terrain Resolution low/med/high) are on the same page? Easier to see changes that way. Smaller pictures, next to each other or such. - Steffe

I don't think so. Smaller images would make it harder to see the difference. Could crop the images instead of resizing, but then it doesn't give the full experience. - Dashiva 14:16, 7 July 2007 (CDT)

True, just thought it would be easier with the pictures on the same page, the way it is now you have to flip between tabs/windows to check the differences. Then again not everyone run high resolutions, and such a layout wouldn't be good for them. - Steffe 22:15 7 July 2007 GMT+2
