I have the following set up Athlon 1.2 256 meg Geforce2 Mx Can anyone tell me what settings I need in D3D setup to get best performance out of GPL. Using 12.60 drivers. and nvmax is installed. getting 30-36 fps with jcarset 1.1 and basic track graphics everything turned on. drops when all cars are running. Just want to maximise. Get good 45fps in N4 with everyhting on and opengl.
The 3d wheels in the jfCarSet add about 240 polygons per car, so they will slow things down a real lot, enough that I don't use 3d wheels. Also your MX may be slowing things down (that's a total guess). If you need better fps you'll have to turn the detail bar down in GPL. Anyway, I have these settings in my core.ini - [ Int Profile Values ] value3 = Direct3D7:D3DDevice:0 value4 = Direct3D7:TossHighestMip:0 value5 = Direct3D7:TrilinearFiltering:0 value6 = Direct3D7:DoubleMirrorResWidth:0 value7 = Direct3D7:DoubleMirrorResHeight:0 value8 = Direct3D7:DirectMirrorRendering:0 value9 = Direct3D7:DisableZBuffer:0 [ Direct3D7 ] D3DDevice = 1 TossHighestMip = 0 TrilinearFiltering = 1 DoubleMirrorResWidth = 1 DoubleMirrorResHeight = 1 DirectMirrorRendering = 1 DisableZBuffer = 0 "Andrew East" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:GkmV6.126463$[email hidden]...
