- I use DKBtrace quite a bit and I found that having a bunch of pre defined
- TRACE.DEF files handy. I have a simple batch file for each resolution that
- copies the correct parameters int the TRACE.DEF file. The following is a list
- of the parameters I use:
-
- TRACELR.DEF
- -w200 -h100 -v +ft +d9 +p +x -a -q4
- The above will create 200x100 picture with no anti alias, no textures, and no
- reflection/refraction/transmitted rays. This will make a tga picture in about
- two minutes on a 486/33.
-
- TRACEHR.DEF
- -w800 -h600 -v +ft +d9 +x +a -q9
- This will create an 800x600 with all the bells and whistles. Note this will
- take alot longer (1 to 2 hours on 486/33) so be patient |:).
-
- To use them, simply copy the one you want into the TRACE.DEF file and then run
- DKB and the file name.
