Heres a graphics setting you might try if youre using a DX4/100 or just above.
VGA - youll have to settle for that
Trackside objects set to Medium (All on some tracks, not Monaco though)
Nothing in mirrors (exept cars)
Texture on:
kerbs
fences
track
hills
trackside objects
smoke
The framerate should be set to approx 3 nothes below the estimated for best performance. As long as the
framerate doesnt drop below 11-13 fps you can enjoy both some graphics and a decent racing feeling.
