I'm mainly joining online GPL races via IP thru GPL->Multiplayer. Wanted to try out 2xFSAA on mye Geforce 2 GTS. Offline I had 36fps in 1280x1024 2xFSAA. But online the framerate dropped to 25fps... The hunt for more fps went on....Tried all sorts of stuff, with no luck. Then I remembered Jens Kruuses Kyro II review, where he fixed the Kyro II online GPL problem, by turning the "Quality meters" off in the core.ini (show_meters = 0). Tried the same thing, and the d... thing worked ;D I have never noticed that the "quality meters" stole performance, cause my system always had enough power to run GPL smoothly without FSAA enabled. But it obviously does ? But when hosting a server, I dont get the fps drop with the "quality meters" enabled. Wierd ;) Tbird 1200@1333Mhz Asus V7700 Geforce 2 GTS 32Mb Windows 98SE Nvidia 12.90 DX 8 Karsten Borchers www.simracing.dk
