I'd like anyone with a 200MMX to post here (or E-MAIL me) how many fps
estimate you get with absolutely everything on, all objects, all
textures, everything in the mirrors, and everything in the mirrors
textured. I'll get things started . . .
Dell dimension XPS 200MMX
32 RAM
Virge 2MEG STB video card (I will swap this very soon)
14.2 estimated fps
Just for info. I've got a P200Pro, 32meg, 4meg Matrox Millenium,
everything on gives estimated 17.something fps, but it always slows down
when displaying smoking cars in front (but never smoke from my own tyres).
When I first played I cranked everything on and pressed the estimate button
and it recommended the max frame rate, so off I went, got onto the grid at
Silverstone, marvellous scenery... the race started and it jerked along, so
I cranked it down on the fps and its ok. I now play with all on except
textured scenery in mirrors and no textured smoke it runs at max fps
perfectly.

I own the same computer but have already switched to the 4MB EDO DRAM
Diamond Stealth 2000 and got estimated 17.2 fps.

Well,
I'm running a 200MMX, 64MB Ram, Verite 4MB 3D board, 512k cache, all
that you'd need right? Same deal, but everybody knows the Monaco
problem, and the general graphics/framerate deal with GP2, so I won't
say much except that I get generally 17fps or so with all options on.
So I turn some off and it runs smooth, and I just don't get to race at
Monaco much. (other tracks are much better)
It's hard to figure out how some games such as Tomb Raider, or even
Road Rash can include so many beautiful graphics at such a high frame
rate, but I guess thats the price GP2 pays for having such an
excellant driving model.
For my money, this game is still the best.
Would it be too much to ask of Microprose to do a GP3 with the same
framework but updated tracks, multiplayer, a paintkit...etc?? Please??
I'd hate for a new game to come out and overshadow this one just
because they never updated it.
But these things have all been discussed here many times before so
I'll shush.
see you at Imola
