Graphics Quality

After getting Cricket Captain 2015 to look pretty slick with some dabbling in my Radeon settings, Cricket Captain 2016 seems to be a step backwards. It is like it's running at a lower resolution perhaps. I have no idea. Jagged edges, low res textures and the rest.

And Cricket Captain 2015. Sorry for the dual posts - image upload limit is 400kb by the looks and I run 3840x2160. Should hopefully be a good enough comparison side by side.

Thanks for this. Looks like we've got something wrong in our settings. We'll look into it as soon as possible.

Thanks Chris. I've noticed a similar thing with the visuals as compared to CC15 - something to do with shadows maybe.

Do you play in 4K, sfreak?

[sfreak]

That I do.

[Sureshot]

That's commitment!

I've got a 1440p monitor, but almost always play in Windowed.

What 4K monitor have you got? I keep getting tempted...

[sfreak]

Do it. I've now got the good problem of windowed mode looking too small. I should perhaps add a feature request for some higher resolutions to pick.....

As for the monitor, it's a Philips BDM4065. Went from 3x 24" surround to 1x 40" and thought it'd be a step back.... But how wrong I was. Immersive as anything. All I need now is another 2 and to wait for a video card powerful enough to power them all.....

What resolution options do you get in windowed mode?

The following -

Interesting, I've logged a feature request to add some more resolutions

Any luck with it or shall I keep playing 2015 for a bit longer? I've had a bit of a dig around in the game and save folders and can't find anything obvious that would make a difference.

Sorry, not ignoring you. Will try and get an update on the situation early next week.

I also want to try and get those new resolutions added as I think that will make a big difference to you.

G'day Nigel,

Any luck with making it as slick as 2015 yet? Keen to get back into it for the upcoming Aus cricket season. Played 2015 to death now - ended up predicting Boyce's move to Tasmania along with Usman Khawaja in the 2017/2018 season. You heard it here first.

Hi sfreak,

The changes we've marked for sorting (including hopefully adding some bigger windowed resolutions) will have to wait until 2017, unfortunately.
