I have an Athlon 2600 system with a Radeon 9700 Pro. Although I set my game resolution to 800x600 16 bit (the minimum choice), and lowered many of my graphics settings in-game, my opening framerate at the start of a race (at Kansas -- haven't tried Indy yet) is a miserable 27. It hovers in the mid to low 30's after that. I figure that I must have some setting wrong. I'd be curious to learn what settings someone with a similar system to mine is using and what type of frame rates they're getting. Two more things -- I'm not sure if the 3Dconfig thing is working properly. Before I first ran the demo, I ran thru 3Dconfig OK. It showed the triangles at 50M at a resolution of 1024x768 16 bit. When I saw how bad the framerate was, I re-ran it at 800x16 16 bit, but the "Analyze" feature didn't come up with a result - Zero triangles. So maybe I _am_ still running at 1024x768 -- who knows? Finally, is there an in-game setting where you can choose whether to runn AA and/or AF graphic settings? Thanks!
