Feel free to add whatever you feel helps make this awesome game easier to learn for others.


Here's my top tip on identifying enemy and team...

Germans run with their guns in one hand whilst the Ruskies run with their guns in both hands. Helps ID them quicker sometimes than trying to decide what colour of uniform they are wearing.

I cant help but think that the strafing a room tip at the start of the video was something we would have done when we first started online gaming before games became more of a frag fest.

Plagiarized from elsewhere...


Some times you need to change some setting in config files these can be found in:
mydocuments\mygames\redorchestra2\rogame\config
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FPS Performance tweaks:

Before starting with any tweaking of things make sure of the following:

    If you participated in the beta make sure all config files are deleted before starting the game for the first time.
    Make sure you have verified the integrity of the game cache through steam. open steam -> library -> right click redorchestra2 -> properties -> local files -> verify integrity of the game cache.
    If you have a regular harddisc make sure your harddisc is properly defragmented (personally I recommend perfectdisc defragment both your gaming as windows disc and do an offline defragmentation).
    Make sure you are running on the latest revision of directx from microsoft and running on the latest videocard drivers.


Note:
If you have Crossfire/dual GPU card:
Disable Crossfire/Catalyst AI or use RadeonPro http://forums.steampowered.com/forum....php?t=2121606
You can also tell AMD about performance issues with crossfire: http://www.amdsurveys.com/se.ashx?s=5A1E27D27E29B0E3


In case you want to increase your fps its best to start with lowering the things that take up the most fps.

In the graphical options:

    Disable the tick options like lightrays blur and bloom
    Set the shadow settings lower (big performance impact)
    Set the lightning settings lower (pretty big performance impact)
    Disable the steam community (gives up to +20 fps for some people)
    Play around with the occlusion level for different people different settings yield better results.


Ini tweaks:
in ROengine.ini set:

    depthoffield = FALSE (gives up to +20 fps for some people)
    MaxMultisamples = 0 (disable regular anti aliasing)
    MaxAnisotropy = 1 (disable anisotropic filtering)
    AllowRadialBlur=False
    MotionBlur=False
    for some users the following helps as well.
    CompatLevelCPU = 4


Note: depthoffield=off makes things dark so increase your brightness or turn on bloom.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mouse responsiveness tweaks.

In the graphical options make sure that:

    OneFrameTrheadLag is disabled
    Vsync is disabled


in ROinput.ini set:

    bViewAccelerationEnabled=FALSE


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Change the amount of zoom that you have in Ironsights.

open ROgame.ini

scroll down to the section:
[ROGame.ROPlayerController]

there you will find
IronSightZoomScaleSMG=1.000000
IronSightZoomScaleRifle=1.000000
IronSightZoomScaleBipod=1.000000

Here 1 means maximum zoom and 0 means no zoom, personally I like setting them to 0.5
Note: with certain resolutions your gun could start missing when you adjust the amount of zoom in ironsights which is why TWI removed the menu option.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Force a higher fov

Navigate to C:\Users\<UserName>\Documents\My Games\RedOrchestra2\ROGame\Config

Open the RoGame.ini file with a text editor
CTRL+F "PlayerFOV" without quotes

Set the FOV at desired amount then save the file
Right Click on RoGame.ini and go to properties
Set the file as read only with the checkbox

You now have working FOV, this will revert if you open any settings when you are in game.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key config binds

Note: When you want to manually bind a key make sure it is not bound in the regular binding menu, otherwise whatever function it is bound to will dissapear in the key configuration settings.

replace the xxx with your desired button.
Note: mouse buttons are: leftmousebutton, rightmousebutton, middlemousebutton, thumbmousebutton, thumbmousebutton2

you open the console with ~ or ΓΆ, all setbind commands must be typed in the console.

Bind an individual button to zoom in (for instance if you don't want to zoom in with the same key as sprint):
setbind xxx ExclusiveFocus

Bind an individual button to crouch only when holding down the button:
setbind xxx "Duck | Button bDuckHeld"

Bind the bandage button to an individual button:
setbind xxx Bandage

Bind hold down to get ads:
setbind xxx "Ironsights | onrelease Ironsights"

the above button can break up at times, so make sure you have another key bound to regular ironsights that you can press to fix it when it goes wrong:
setbind xxx Ironsights

If binding this way doesn't work try manually editing your ROInput.ini make the changes under [ROGame.ROPlayerInput] and NOT under [Engine.PlayerInput]

example:

Code:

Bindings=(Name="Ironsights",Command="Ironsights",Control=False,Shift=False,Alt=False,bIgnoreCtrl=False,bIgnoreShift=False,bIgnoreAlt=False)
Bindings=(Name="RightMouseButton",Command="Ironsights | Onrelease Ironsights",Control=False,Shift=False,Alt=False,bIgnoreCtrl=False,bIgnoreShift=False,bIgnoreAlt=False)
