How to make your game look better [hl2]

[SkyNinja1]

mat_picmip 4 doesn't make it worse because of your video card, it makes it worse because it forces the game to use 4x smaller textures, it has nothing to do with the card.

[sexykatie90]

thumbs up if you like How to make your game look better [hl2]

[2GameBrothers]

Hmm, I have better uality then that and I didnt changed anythink in the console

Btw, I didnt see the diffrence in your video

[GannondorkVBA]

Throwing olive oil on the screen always makes games look better. Hey, it works for the home consoles. XD But seriously, I wish more developers would use the less-dark style of games like Valve and Nintendo are doing, it really makes them stand out and actually look much better.

[gamegecko73]

lol alyx looks like an old lady

[Mario200Fan]

Half-Life For Kids!

[chance531]

DUDE! THANK YOU! THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR!

[legofan112]

mat_picmip 4 made your gmod into hl1. xD

[hypersonic1999]

[DominicHax]

@robortalien I dont know you tell me silly

[horridshrimp2k37]

looks like hl1

[TF2Pyrosux]

to get the best quality, use mat_picmip -10

[kidkikds]

what the fuck.

[gangsterboi50]

Meh it doesnt matter this command makes your game textures look better so oh well

[gangsterboi50]

It says ten because thats YOUR limit with my old video card it was 8

[SamtheThunder]

@gangsterboi50 hey what did you do to show more of your phy gun like it shows more than mine and i like that

[Barricade010]

I got dizzy couse of the Re: on the discription %)

[editto684]

i have a question if the computer is below the requirements can i do this and work i mean only the ram

[gangsterboi50]

I am not sure but you can try

[Nuotykis]

Reminds me of the original HL.

[UhustickPwnU]

Use -10

[gangsterboi50]

Lol! yea since my video card is horrible even at the highest setting it looks crappy

[bmxismylife123]

lol it's like ultra low

[Regent116]

WHY DID I FIND THIS VIDEO JUST NOW! my gmod lagged and i deleted it! ;(

[Menat666]

it's gmod...gmod lags.

that depends on your internet connection...

connection good= (server conn. good) no lag

if the connection is bad..lag like hell.

[gangsterboi50]

I dont think that makes it better lol

[xGateOfOblivion]

just type in -dxlevel 80 in the launch option

[IxT4L3NTZxI]

LOL

[gangsterboi50]

Well if you want to run your laptop faster on gmod then go for the lowest setting, If your a person who doesnt care about looks but performance then go ahead and try mat_picmip 50 20 is probably as far is it goes but i say mat_picmip because im not really sure how the number varies depending on video card

[dennisvlachos1981995]

thanks!!! now i can run it!!!

[dennisvlachos1981995]

I wonder if I can play Gmod with Mat_picmip 4 in a 64 mb!!! only graphics card (That's my laptop's graphics card) or I must put Mat_picmic 200? Thanks, very good video!

[gangsterboi50]

I didnt really know if mat_picmip can crash your game but.. i guess on older video cards like mine it might not be able to adjust to the best setting and crash

[sesestro]

my friend try mat_picmip -1000 to his geforce 5200fx it crash in mine it's work 2x 4870x2 mat_picmip -1200 but it looks so colorful

[DeviantPicturess]

mat_picmip -10  is the best variant

[LolstermanZ]

You were looking at the penises LOL

[gangsterboi50]

yes i was

[Grecys]

what should i try with me new 9500 gt dd3

[gangsterboi50]

mat_picmip -200

This will set it to the highest setting.

Warning if your computer cannot handle your video card already don't try this.

[bobbyhill19899]

looks like a early opengl game at the low point

[80xlulz]

Youre a lucky guy! You got GMOD :P

[imakemixes]

cheaper then fuck!

[blabla1880]

what should i take? i have Asus GeForce 9600GT 512MB

[gangsterboi50]

try -50, it will automatically spot the maximum setting and choose it for you. Damn nice video card I'm still stuck with my Asus GeForce 5500 Fx series.

[blabla1880]

Thx. I asked only for money for xmas and used 1729 norwegian kroner on the card. That is 0.18 USA (USD)

[gangsterboi50]

Ah alright :D

[QuantumCarl]

What else works is setting your LOD to a negative number. -3 or -4 should do wonders to overall visual clarity.

[gangsterboi50]

yes

[Kenwyne3546]

"warning do not put mat_picmip in an autoexec.cfg, it will cause your game to start working" lol is that bad?

[MrShroubles]

i play tf2 with mat_picmic -10

it looks fuckin awesome :V

i can see whats written in some parts of the sentry gun

[Kenwyne3546]

you can see that anyway if your in the highest settings. my comp is only mid end and i run on all highest settings, 16x antistropic filteriing, 16xq anti aliasing and because my my monitor is shit. 1024x768

[h6oib]

bring those guys to life

[rayman2121]

Would a e-GeForce 6200 256MG AGP8x Be good enough to play HL2? I'm downloading it off steam atm.. God damn steam is slow :P

[sgtzeon90]

Oh, yea.

[barrybollocks]

man my pc used to be able to play games like dirt, oblivion, the settlers and other such games with full graphics but then i got it rebooted from a mate and games dont play now so im stumped

[Carx221]

[gangsterboi50]

[PancakeKick]

[gangsterboi50]

[gangsterboi50]

STOP POSTING CRAP like that.

[gangsterboi50]

SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU FAGGOT

[joshXisXdead]

360 doesnt suck PC doesnt suck PS3 doesnt suck Wii doesnt suck anyone who fight which is better or goes that sucks is just plain retarded gaming systems are meant to be played not argued about

[lunei66]

Thank you.

Atleast someone knows.

[gangsterboi50]

Let me tell you this, I'm Disabling comments because your all fucking faggots. 360 sucks dick now I'll give you a few minutes to think about how much 360 fails.

[Darkena00]

that's just a matter of opinion. It really just depends on what you want to do with your extra time, playing a game through once, then realizing that there's no reason to play it anymore, or playing and creating an endless number of mods, like Gmod, that always keep you occupied and, usually, mods are free so your money wont get wasted paying extra for a game that you need to have a base game

(i.e. HL2) that also costs money.

...

PC is better

...

than console

...

(or Mac) :D

[nadsjaya]

gangsterboi is 35 yrs old.. gang banging into ur mid life crisis

[GodfatherProductionz]

Just because your to poor to buy a console

[DrDrick]

Xbox sucks?!!! 1 star for you!!!

[deathray393]

Casual gamers play console, nerdy awesome hardcore modder gamers play PC. I like the PC better, because the games usually cost less, and with consoles, new ones come out every 6 years, so they look better than most pc's for about two years, but the pc world is constantly upgraded, and you come up with games eventually that a console couldn't run at full settings anyway, like crysis or cod4.

[gangsterboi50]

No my tags!

[gangsterboi50]

I don't want this video turning from how to make hl2 look better to fan boy fight, k so stop please.

[adilz22]

prick get ur own tags mug

[Rickfish131]

Wow. mat_picmip 4 reminds me of the rendering problems I used to have in Bioshock.

[gangsterboi50]

Really now, im sorry not to be a 360 hater but 360's suck DICK

can you do console commands in 360

can you put custom content in 360?

NO so hah

[lunei66]

Yea you can put custom content in 360, only that its way hard.

360 is awesome for gaming, pc is awesome for everything if you have the money for it.

[deathray393]

exactly.

[FeaRxMaGiq]

fuck pc

xbox 360 version has the best quality and graphics fucken nerd pc gamers

[raptornuke525]

Yep, we faggot PC gamers sure are nerds, what with our arguing over which version of HL2 is better with Xbox 360 players.

[secretten]

Actually a pc can have x4 better graphics than a 360 can. Better internet connections. User created content. And loads more. Don't get be wriong I love my 360 its just that the pc is so much better.

[Gabezen101]

The pc can have better or worse graphics depending on what type of computer you have. At least we dont argue :D

[Rahfzerz]

Hey guess who invented the 360 buddy, Microsoft... now let me ask you a question, what is Microsoft famous for? I'll give you a few minutes to work it out ^_^

[adilz22]

oi bitch why u copy and paste my tags fucking mug

[lookslikeharry2]

lol

[BloodTal0n]

hehe mat_picmip 4 really makes the game look like it was released two years after hl1 :)

[gangsterboi50]

Because, this method is actually better believe it or not, those options only tell you whats best for you, with this you can do what ever you want

[HTMLearth]

Why not just go into settings, and lower or raise the texture quality?

[sepiroth799]

wow thats nice can i have it

[padlockcode]

this is teh gay 0 star rating

[gangsterboi50]

Lol yea for 4 but if you do -4 it looks like hl2 and you got a geforce 6000 video card lol while i got a gefroce 5500

[muffin414]

ya it looked like Half Life 1

[bappoipp555]

cool neat trick when it was at 4 it looked like regular half life
