We have a quick and easy look at how to get your game looking a little sharper.
Jedith made an easy-to-follow video guide for a few tweaks to make your graphics much better (although that’s up to preference) and primarily sharper. This is done by enabling a few settings in the graphics menu and then using a macro to turn on a filter hidden from the usual WoW settings. Let’s go through them!
To make the difference, you need to use a sharpening filter. It can be turned on in a couple different ways, but Jedith shows us the easiest one. Before we start, you can see the difference at the 1:05 mark in his video, so you can decide if you want your game to look like this.
Settings
First, go to Settings -> Graphics -> scroll down to Resample Quality and set it to FidelityFX Super Resolution 1.0. Then, scroll a bit further down to Resample Sharpness and set it to either 0.2 or 0 (Zero will make it sharper). With a macro, we can enable sharpening without turning the Render Scale down, to maximize your graphics.
Toggle Macro
In case you haven’t made any before, to open the Macro window all you have to do is press Esc -> Macros, or simply type /macro in the chat. Click New to create a new macro and then add this code (make sure to copy it):
/run local o = GetCVarBool(“ResampleAlwaysSharpen”); SetCVar(“ResampleAlwaysSharpen”, not o); print(“Sharpening is now ” .. (o and “off” or “on”))
Once you’ve created the macro, drag and drop it onto your action bar. Now, just test it out, and you’re all set! You can experiment with Resample Sharpness, adjusting it from 0.2 to 0 or vice versa, to suit your preference.
Hopefully you like your new look and this made your game look better!
