Graphic Setting for GP2 with a 200MMX chip

Can anyone tell me the best combination to get a good compromise between frame rate and good graphics (i.e. eye candy)? Take the a out of neat to send an email.

I also set most things on, take the sky off, run in SVGA with auto adjust on and set the intended frame rate for around 18-20fps. Same chip, and an old graphics card (DS Video Vram 2Mb), and game works well. A good track to test on is Monte Carlo. Have fun! Dan

I've got a K6 200 (clocked to 225) with 32Mb SDram and gp2 runs great with everything on except the sky in svga mode, I get estimated and actual 25fps no probs. slowdown. GP2 flies with a 200MHz plus cpu!!!! d:~)) **Peter**

The higer the framerate the higher the reaction from your car concerning your input. Very good is to have 25 fps, but don't go under 20 fps this will reduce the level of realistics. -- Mit freundlichen Gruessen Internet: http//www.atn.de Telefon: +49 511 7 26 36 - 0 Telefax: +46 511 7 26 36 - 18

-You should turn off all mirror textures (don't need them) - turn off sky (don't need it) - set the desired framerate about 2 lower than the estimated maybe give some smaller details up and you should be able to have a Processor Occupancy of <100% on all tracks but Monaco JoH =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= When everything else failed, we can still become im- mortal by making an enormous blunder....
