Creature fur, without slowing computer

[ryudo2053]

You see, i've been playing BW2 since awhile, but as i don't have a nice Graphic card(Gefotce Fx 5200  ) , i couldn't see any fur or grass. And gooddy looks veery creepy.

So i followed that nice 'graphics.config' file tutorial, and went there.

To have Fur, without slowing computer, put the options at  '2      1      2' and put at LOW, on video options on BW2 menu.
On LOW, you do not get grass but you get fur.
On MEDIUM you get grass and fur, but it can slow the computer.
On HIGH you can sea, grass and fur, but it slows a lot.


It's not much, but at least you get fur =]




Beardy will look like Einstein  :laugh2

I'm surprised that you're able to get fur at all with that video card.  ???

 

[ryudo2053]

I am too  :shocked
I am thinking on buying a new one, i just need the money.



BTW, if someone with a horrible video card like mines, try that, it may help.


BUT FIRST REMEMBER TO ALWAYS BACK-UP THE FILE!!

it does not let me change it

 

[Kays]

Why not? ???

Are you getting errors or something?

 

[KillerPenguin]

yes
Cannot create the c:/ program files/lionhead studios/black & white 2/graphics.config file

Strange, because you're trying to save it, not create it. Are you using VISTA?

In Windows Explorer, Click on Tools in the menu bar, then select Folder Options and click on the View tab. Make sure that "Hide extensions for known file types" is unchecked.

im using vista
I did that uncheked that option and it still says the same thing

 

[Kays]

It could be a security restriction in VISTA.

One thing to try is to copy that file to another folder. Rename it to graphics.txt. alter and save it and then rename it back to graphics.config.
