F12K fps tweaks?

by vabergf.. » Wed, 26 Apr 2000 04:00:00

I've seen bits and pieces through RAS, but would someone please post
all the various framerate tweaks for F1 2000 in reply to this so they
are in one place.  I'm finally going to take the plunge, and I want to
give it the best chance possible on my P3-550, 128 meg, 12meg Voddoo 2
machine.  Thanks!

Is there a way to see the current FPS in F1-2000 ?

Allison Hines has some suggestions on her sites and there is also a
tweak to limit the # of opponents in a race thru your wordpad (ini
file) I think.

Download the utility at http://www.fraps.com and run it before you start
F1-2000.

Thanks, but where might that Allison Hines site be?

I would suggest doing a search on "FPS" or "framerate" at the F1-2000 forum
at Highgear ( http://forums.simracingnews.com ).

I upgraded to P3 500, 256MB, with V2 12MB in SLI and now can run smooth
(25-40fps) with all cars (8 visible) but with mirrors off, 800x600, most
everything at med. or high detail. Mirrors will slow it down by almost 1/3. Also
the positioning map makes it run a lot slower so I keep that off and frames go
up to +50 after the start.

I was wondering if anyone knew if there is a video card that does not slow it
down as much?
