transparent conback's for r1q2

[R1CH]

gl_hudscale, the 0.1.5 series is "beta" although I really should fix this and release a detailed changelog/cvar list. There's some small docs on the R1Q2 'other projects' forum for now.

well sorta r1ch i got a config setup for it and stuff. but i found it kinda silly that it scaled everything the same
we need different options for hud/text/crosshair

[Lemonzest]

yeah, i agree with Xtife, the scaling should be seperate for each item hud/crosshair/text as its pretty annoying  to have text that large on a 1280x1024 screen when i just want a 2x Hud and normal text/crosshair

Hmm.. I bet if we somehow chipped in and bought R1ch this 2560x1600 monitor, various scaling options would appear in no time....



/me imagines reading standard console text on that thing with a jewler's loupe...

lol^

damn, it scales your xhair? thats no good.. one of the reasons i dont use antialiasing in q2.. it messes up my xhair and puts a weird lookin box around my transparent hud icons :\

i would like to scale the hud and text though so ill just wait for next version. r1ch rapes

if you get black lines around your transparant hud use gl_noscrap "1" in your config, i asked r1ch about it and thats what he told me and it fixed it right up

oh nice.. now if only aa doesn't fuck with the xhair i would use it

[Lemonzest]

what AA are you using and on what card? on ATI Cards its only MSAA (Multi sample anti aliasing) which only does polygon edges etc, now some AA modes on nVidia Cards use SSAA (super sampled anti aliasing) and that works on the WHOLE screen and can blur the pics/ch so you should use a MSAA mode and it should fix that.
