--- Comment #37 from Nephyrin zey Nephyrin@nephyrin.net 2011-02-04 20:02:16 CST --- Just to sum up the current state of WoW D3D in 1.3.13: The game wont let you enable certain effects until you either bump up the reported nvidia driver version or set your game to windows 7 mode. Once that is done, you can select all ultra settings. Despite some reports, you don't need DX11 for this, although said settings might look nicer if we had a DX11 mode available.
However, these still don't work: 1) Sunshafts. Enabling them disables the sun's bloom effect, but doesn't replace it with any sunshaft effects, giving you little more than a circular texture for the sun. 2) Water above 'fair' quality. Both 'good' and 'ultra' quality give invisible water. 3) Multisampling on nvidia drivers older than 270.18, but 270.18 works great (finally!)
