Is there a legitimate way to remove the "Fog of War" in the game? The only reason I ask is that I inadvertantly did it when changing some hardware.
I recently put together a new system as my old one was just barely meeting minimum specs for BF2. Anyway, one component I did not purchase was an audio card as I was going to remove my Audigy card from my old system and and use it in the new system. When when I removed the audio card from my old system I had still not set up BF2 on my new system and decided to take a break and play a round or two (on the old PC). I found I could see much, much further than before.
For instance on Strike at Karkand, before if I was on the MEC side of the bridge I could see just a little past the other side of the bridge before it was obsured by the Fog of War. After I removed the sound card and played I could see all the way up to the buildings on the top of the hill.
On my new system I still get the Fog of War as well. So, was this some sort of bug/glitch? I had thought that the fog was there because I had a low-end Gfx Card that could not render that much detail, but it was on the old system that the fog was removed and my new system still shows the fog. Any ideas?
Old System:
P4 2.4Ghz
1GB Ram
GeForce 5700
New System
AMD64 4000+
2GB Ram
GeForce 7800GT
