Hello, all: I'm running Nascar in SVGA and I think the frame rate
could be better (slightly choppy), even with everything turned off.
I'm using the following hardware:
#9 GXE64 w/1MB DRAM
16MB Ram
486-66
...and the game is loaded to disk. Can anyone tell me what I need to
get the best results?
Appreciate the help
Well I'm running P90, Diamond 64 2mb Vram, and 24mg and I can run
everything but road texture. I don't know, but I think I should have
everything that I should need to run a two year old game! (wait until GP2
min. requirements P90 16mg

Secondly...unfortunately...2 problems..your video card only has 1 meg
ram and a 486DX266 in the low side for performance. Making the changes
to your config/autoexec should help..but not nearly as much as new card
and CPU..that's the way it is.
The good news is, that NCR2 has ICR2 texturing, which is faster than
NCR1.

Since you have almost the exact same system as mine, There are two things
you can do-
1. PLAY VGA- It's much quicker, and you can have car detail on and a few
other things and still have a smooth frame rate.
2. Upgrade your system!
Trust me, play VGA, it's just not as sharp.

In some, much lesser extent this applies to ICR2 too. But even then, I
somehow prefer ICR 1 for 'fun' playing. Perhaps I'm just a lousy
driver.
BTW: I'm using Gravis Firebird as a controller. This is a nice stick
as all necessary controls/views can be programmed in the ~10 buttons
available. And the throttle control is nice. I'd like to try some of
the cheaper wheels/yokes: do you have any experience about Suncom
G-Force yoke ?
