Does someone knows if Nhancer will increase the graphics of PW when using max settings? Because it works on almost all other mmorpg's.

    To the Admin: Am I able to use Nhancer to optimise my graphics? Or will my account be deleted when I use it?

    nHancer is simply a graphics card setting control panel. It does not do anything that gives you an advantage in the game, nor does it modify the game files. It simply changes graphics card settings to improve the rendering quality of the display. As such, I can see no reason that it would be bannable.

    K thanks. Is the next use possible with PW:

    Supersampling or Combinated (whats best?)
    32xS
    Echanced ingame-AA settings: ON
    Gamma correction: ON (what does it do in PW?)
    Super Transparency AA
    AF: 16x
    V-sync: ON
    Force Open GL- Tribble Buffering: ON

    Texture Filtering: High Quality
    Trilinear Optimization: ON
    Aniso. Sample Optimization: ON
    Negative Lod bias:....(what is it? and what does it do in PW?)

    Force Mip Maps:....(what is it? and what does it do in PW?)
    HDR: On

    Is it possible to use all those max settings or will the game crash? Or are there more things I could enable or make higher for better grphics? (I have a very fast pc so I could play all max)

    Supersampling gets best quality, Combined gets best performance


    Gamma correction: ON (what does it do in PW?)
    Makes anti-aliased edges look better (smoother).

    Force Mip Maps:....(what is it? and what does it do in PW?)
    Mip map is a version of a texture with a lower resolution and it's used to prevent shimmering when the object is not 1:1 on your screen, meaning that it's quality has been degraded because of distance.

    Negative Lod bias:....(what is it? and what does it do in PW?)
    Allow for best performance, Clamp for best quality (when using anisotrophic filtering). Level of Detail BIAS controls the distance where the lower resolution mipmaps are used, thus negative LOD makes the image look sharper from a longer distance, but again, it can cause shimmering.

    Is it possible to use all those max settings or will the game crash? Or are there more things I could enable or make higher for better grphics? (I have a very fast pc so I could play all max)
    Sure, why not, I have a 2 years old comp (wasn't top notch even then) and it can run the game with everything maxed (I hate bloom effect, so that's not on) and I have a decent FPS in places that don't have alot of players in one place, use ingame option 'sight' to further improve FPS when playing with maxed settings, as it only controls the distance where static objects & terrain starts to show up.

    Meepy meep.

    Thanks :) I don't have any trouble with it :P
    So I only neeed to create a map named perfect world and use the elementclient.exe and enabling the best things to use it or...?

    BTW: Will the following setup give the best effect/graphics or could something better?

    Supersampling 4x4
    32xS
    Echanced ingame-AA settings: ON
    Gamma correction: ON
    Super Transparency AA
    AF: 16x
    V-sync: ON
    Force Open GL- Tribble Buffering: ON
    Texture Filtering: High Quality
    Trilinear Optimization: ON
    Aniso. Sample Optimization: ON
    Negative Lod bias: Clamp
    Force Mip Maps: Trillianair
    HDR: On (on or off? will it give better look and graphics when using?)

    Thanks a lot!

    I just set mine up in the Nvidia control panel, but it's very similar to what I did. I'm not sure if HDR will make a difference seeing as how PW doesn't use it. It's only lighting effects anyway.

    What do you mean with setting up in the Nvidea control panel?

    Most of what you are setting up in Nhancer is in the default Nvidia control panel in the Advanced 3D section. Nhancer just makes it easier to do.
