GPL 1.2 - Framerates

by Olav K. Malm » Sat, 02 Oct 1999 04:00:00

Hello,

I downloaded the US patch from the pits yesterday and gave it a try. Nice to
get a US gpl.exe with no CD required, only to bad it was only a beta and that
it wont work when I get home from work today.

Anyway, the framerates have been hugely improved. I used synch_method=0 in the
1.1 version, and at my optimal detail and resolution settings (I don't remember
right now what is was) i got 36-37 frames on Monza in trainig mode. But with
1.2 i could turn on full detail on the mirrors and punch up the resolution and
still get a solid 36. I don't know if this is something I just imagine since
it is almost two weeks since I played 1.1, but it surely felt better with 1.2

But I got this problem, maybe once per lap or once every other lap the image
froze for a frame or five, ONE stutter that is. Maybe my windowsinstallation
is due to a reistall, but I can't really motivate me to do the job of
reistalling everything from scratch again.
