I know that it is possible to open/close the weapons menu instantly (without animation) when the quality is very low.

I wish this would be available as a seperate setting, because skipping the animation could be important for gameplay reasons. I would not like to use low-quality graphics only to skip the weapons menu animation.

The animation is basically a time penalty because you can't select any weapon during the 0.5s (or so) “opening” animation AFAIK.

Something I've wanted for a very long time is options in Advanced tab to toggle all the "quality" flags separately as a checkbox array.

I just haven't gotten around to actually adding it. Maybe someone else will :-/

It helps in debugging situations, and in customising like this.

BTW, the whole reason this quality option even exists, was way back when the ammo menu was drawn in a ridiculously inefficient fashion instead of just being a single texture, and animating it would slow to a crawl on sucky machines.

Not really needed anymore, but just was not removed.
