GPL min config for 36fps

by Javier Goizuet » Thu, 16 Sep 1999 04:00:00

After so many time of driving with no mirrors, low res. etc
only to get in the 20-30 fps range I've decided to upgrade my old
system.
I'd appreciate any information on what kind of system should be
the minimum to get it running at a steady 36 fps with all the graphic
options on (I don't intend to have any online racing; my inet
connection is too slow)
I will also use a serial Act Labs Force RS.

Even the most powerful system will experience some slow down either at
the start of a race or in a big pile up, but to get an acceptable level
at 36 fps after the start with all the graphics options on at a good
resolution of 1024x768 I recommend as follows;


128 mb ram
Voodoo 2 or 3

Plus all the other bits and bobs you will need:)

You need a fast connection to host, but not to join.  A 33.6bps or 56 is OK
to join.

Well, you have to buy a system like mine...

PII 350
Voodoo 3000 AGP (but new 3500 is much better!)
128 megs of ram (very cheap now!)

with this config, you'll get always 36 fps (also in 1280 x 1024 with all
details , the mirrors and all the cars on)

And then ... send me your record at Monza...

Have a nice shopping

only works if the celery is a real new one - mine did not work ... don't
expect every 366 to run at 550!!

Hombre!!! un paisano y tocayo ademas.
Lo importante es cuanto te puedes/quieres gastar.
Si quieres seguimos por mail y te comento mi configuracion para 36 fps.

Por cierto yo juego bastante bien con un modem 33.6 por RedesTB.
