Ok, the backdoor way to get WoW looking really awesome.

First, examples.

First image is on full settings with everything in the video option.



This image is full settings in video, and the console commands.




To do this, put your WoW settings on full.

Then make a macro -

/console groundEffectDensity 256
/console groundEffectDist 140
/console detailDoodadAlpha 100
/console horizonfarclip 2112
/console farclip 777
/console characterAmbient 0
/console smallcull 0
/console skycloudlod 3

Drag to your toolbar and click.

If your FPS drops too much, or you dont like it, make another macro to turn it off.

/console groundEffectDensity 16
/console groundEffectDist 1
/console horizonfarclip 1305
/console farclip 177
/console characterAmbient 1
/console smallcull 1
/console skycloudlod 1
/console detailDoodadAlpha 1


Just a note, it can bog down some PCs, especially in the zones it really makes a difference in (like STV, Zangarmarsh etc). Outlands puts more load on the Gfx than Azeroth as well.

Another example in a better zone -
