I posted this on LucasForums, I post here for us to benefit from... If you are having trouble with performance, you can try several things in order to fix before you begin upgrading your hardware without losing too much detail: These work in jaconfig.cfg as well as jampconfig.cfg 1. Turn Dynamic glow off. (previously discussed) seta r_DynamicGlow "0" In multiplayer, this option is missing from the configuration screen, have to manually edit. 2. Turn Dynamic Lights off. seta r_dynamiclight "0" 3. Turn Light Flares off. seta r_flares "0" In multiplayer, this option is missing from the configuration screen, have to manually edit. 4. Turn Shadows off. (especially important for most cards) seta cg_shadows "0" In multiplayer, this option is missing from the configuration screen, have to manually edit. 5. Turn Detailed Shaders off. (many cards do not have shader support) seta r_detailtextures "0" 6. Set Texture Detail to High or Medium Very High is VERY resource intensive and I would suspect a 128MB card is necessary for this setting. Low looks like crud. 7. Turn Anisotropic Filter all the way down to 0. seta r_ext_texture_filter_anisotropic "0.000000" If its greater than 0 at all you will get a performance hit. I did all these to my game which is running on a P4 2.6, with a GF4 Ti4200 and it looks good and runs very fast in 1024x768x32. Give the settings a try and see what happens for your system. Please backup your cfg files before editing. Have fun! _______________ Gone but hopefully not forgotten... |
