Crow_Nest Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 Everytime i start up JA, my dynamic glow always changes to "off". In the .cfg file, i added this seta g_dynamicglow "1". But it will still be "off" when i start up JA. Did i type in the wrong command? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 I don't know your system specs, but can your video card handle it. If not I wonder if it gets turned off because of that. Just a guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txa1265 Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 I feel very lucky that my Dell laptop can handle it without any issues ... ... my last playthrough was as a female Zabrak, with yellow and purple dual sabers ... besides the fact that she kicked a$$, going through dark areas with that overlapping dynamic glow was quite cool.

StormHammer Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 There is no 'Dynamic Glow' option for JA MP, at least not in the menus. There is only 'Dynamic Lights'. Perhaps Dynamic Glow in MP is disabled, or simply not implemented in the code, for performance reasons. For SP, it is under the Setup>More Video> menu.

Sjvegetto Posted November 1, 2003 Share Posted November 1, 2003 I know for a fact Dynamic Glow is enabled by defualt in MP there just not an option to turn it off in the menus. To turn it off in MP just type r_dynamicglow 0 (with dynamicglow off i get a 10FPS boost) as for it always being off you sure card supports the option if it does. maybe something got messed up in the CFG try re-installing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crow_Nest Posted November 1, 2003 Author Share Posted November 1, 2003 No, i was talking about SP. Everytime it turns off when i start up single player. How do i fix this??? PS: I don't think its a good idea moving this in the tech help, because not many people come here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrotoy7 Posted November 1, 2003 Share Posted November 1, 2003 Perhaps Dynamic Glow in MP is disabled, or simply not implemented in the code, for performance reasons. Hi Stormie ! (For me at least...)MP is ON by delfault in MP ! I think there *may* be some prpgramming that can identify if your card is going to cut it with dynamic glow, and subsequently turn it off. To get rid of it in MP, just get in the console and type in : \r_dynamicglow 0 In SP - the 'dynamic glow' on/off option is under setup/more video... I run a geforce5600 64mb. I run at 1600x1200 w 60-80fps with dglow OFF. Turning it on makes it drop to 30fps.(even at lower rez). Thus, I play with it OFF ! MTFBWYA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a way to fix this??? The above command goes for SP too, jist get rid of the "\", plus as I mentioned go into 'setup/video/morevideo' To get this going when you start SP, go into the config files and implement it there, if you are not that savvy(I definitely am not) just bind it to a key bind <key> r_dynamicglow 1 (or 0 to turn it off) If it sill doesnt work, it might be a card issue. Dynamic glow bugs have been frequently raised on the Rvaen boards...... Better off without man, unless you have a 64/128mb card that supports it at high fps MTFBWYA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When i type "g_dynamicglow 1" in or "g_dynamicglow 0" in SP. They don't make any difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, theres also a g_dynamicglow. type in "g_d" in the console and press "TAB" if you don't belive me. You'll get "g_DynamicGlow" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
