Version: 6.0.259 / Virus Database: 130 - Release Date: 6/5/2001
Adjust z-buffer depth to rendering depth is checked - only box checked in
that column.
Mipmap detail level = high performance
up to 31 mb of system memory for textures in pci mode
additional:
Vertical synch = always off
Render no more than 1 frame ahead
I seem to get pretty decent performance with these settings.
