In GPL is the maximum framrate 36-37 fps? I have a Celeron 300a o/c'd to 450 and 128 MB Ram and a 16Mb Banshee Card, I always get around 36-37 fps. Thanks

I have a PII 400, 2 8meg monster ll in SLI mode, my primary card is a Viper 330 and 256 megs of ram. I run a clean background with no other functions running. In 1024 x 768 I get 36 to 37 frames per second. I have heard rumors of machines that hit 40 fps, my suspicion is that the kid was lying. You need a minimum of 30 fps to play on a modem. A friend plays on a cable modem with me and gets only 25 fps. If the game runs with out getting framy then who cares what the fps is? Don't get caught up in the pissing match, someone can always pee higher. Dollars = Speed
Greetings, I think so yes. I have a PII 233 running at 262.5 (3.5 x 75) with 128 Mb, Ultra Wide SCSI harddisk and an 8 Mb Voodoo II board but even when I put all details off (I just wanted to see how it looks) it doesn't get above 37 fps.

According to a Sierra moderator over at Sierra's motorsports forum, the design limit for GPL is 36.95 fps. Doug >In GPL is the maximum framrate 36-37 fps? >I have a Celeron 300a o/c'd to 450 and 128 MB Ram and a 16Mb Banshee Card, I >always get around 36-37 fps. >Thanks
