Setting.ini Tweak

[NiteShade]

Hey guys,

On SGS I found where Vermaak posted his settings.ini file and gave it to Dirk to try. The FPS boost is amazing!
Granted, he only tested on an open server, but his FPS max was 190 and lowest 90. He is going to test it out tonite on a full server.

I loaded the same for myself and ended up with min 100fps and max about 150fps.... also just tested on an empty server. I went around blowing some stuff up and only when I blow up those REALLY big containers from close-up, it went down to like 56fps. Blowing up smaller explosive items it went down to about 90fps.

Here are his settings:
[WindowSettings]
Width=1680
Height=1050
Fullscreen=true
RefreshRate=59.852001
VSync=false
[Sound]
Quality=high
VoipEnable=true

Soldiers=high
Vehicles=high
Overgrowth=medium

DxVersion=auto
Aniso=0

I am going to copy pasta these later. This game is in dire need of optimization across the board.

I am REALLY not enjoying my 30-50 fps with my new processor... :banghead:

i have a feeling that the ANISO=0 may be the culprit, based on mothing more than a feeling, gonna test it soon

The graphics improvement from changing to dx9 is so much better!

Went from about 5 fps to about 50!

Can't wait to kick some ass now :happy2:

Just a note: If ya'll are runnin DX9 cards, then instead of "DxVersion=auto" make sure to make it "DxVersion=9"
If you leave it on "auto", it will default to DX10 if your card can handle it.

Dirk tested his last night and on a busy server, he didn't get less than 90 FPS.

I forgot to turn my fraps on last night, but will try to get a result tonite to post.

These should be the fastest settings for the game. Not recommended if you're into eye-candy.
