The “Quenching” modders can fix the graphics: https://tianxiazhengyi.net/EN/index.html

Yes, I second this. This game needs people working on it that actually cares about the game.

It’s obvious that the current team has no passion about this project.

There’s something a little funny to me about the idea of outsourcing to “fix” the graphics when they were outsourced in the first place.

It remains the best the Game has.
Only they hired to make models. They forgot to also ask that the models be from an RTS and not a Diablo XD

The only models I’ve had readability issues with are the early Undead.

Me alone with the Orc buildings.
But I am a one-armed man and I don’t really care about readability. I am not a good life point.

I generally like new models. What’s more is the only good thing about Reforged. That if there are models that are missing (Malfiurion) or that have little effort. (Naisha)

fans finish the game, and bLizard takes the money for the game, it’s like stealing from the poor and giving to the rich lol ahah

My modification and setup of two mods - “Quenching” + “ReShade”

Wow, the combo looks really cool. :smiley: Which ReShade preset is used with that graphics mod?

And there is a dude who posted Reforged campaign prologue here and on Hive. All of that combined and I might actually keep playing.

I did not use your presets. I have my own settings in the DECISION, but on the basis of some of yours, I don’t remember exactly which ones, I just selected it myself using the sample method.

That’s a cool idea. ReShade could be added on top of the Quenching graphics mod for readability. I might check into it, once I bought Reforged again and have some time. xD

The answer above was addressed to you, I mixed up the interlocutor. Yes, I took your settings as a basis ReShade, but redid it to fit my parameters.

The graphics were fine until Blizzard started messing with them. E.g. 2018 demo

I won’t lie. The 2018 footage and this new stuff popping up with Reshade that people are experimenting with all looks a little too washed out and desaturated for me.

I don’t know much about reshade, but I do know that while the UI shown in the video in this thread is a shadow of the 2018 UI, I think it’s still better than our current UI which says something.

You’re one of those people that helped Bliz shape W3reforged into what it currently is, right? No wonder you like it. It got shaped like you wanted which I guess is good for you, bad for me.

…Sure? I don’t know what this means exactly and I don’t want to jump to any conclusions based on possible implications.

I don’t think so though because the UI is awkward, Undead are too monotone, I wish tauren were more bestial, some units could use a few more spots of team colour (though the recent visibility pass is an improvement), some air unit scaling is out of wack, my campaign progress keeps getting wiped, having no ladder on launch for a game for a competitive game is bizarre, they need to remove the new death sounds they added for units, global matchmaking needs to be an opt-in setting in the game menus (for masochists) rather than on by default/the new standard entirely, past the matchmaking they need to do better with dropped games (melee or custom), a delay of December → January release date was not nearly long enough, I would’ve rather they had two versions of the campaigns - one classic set and the other set is with all the modern lore, and they could definitely finally toss in campaign characters as options for melee play in the collection tab.

We are such opposites lol

It’s a cool extra detail on paper but I still haven’t adjusted to hearing them and I always need to think “what happened there” because it’s a strange audio cue to me.

A button to switch between other options would be great. Imagine being able to switch between the new & old death sounds or between the current & other graphic styles, same with new & old voices in other languages etc. I mean it like “why replacing stuff, if you can just give people an option to choose & keep both instead?”
