im running the game at 400*300 with an nvidia 8500gt smoothly over the sea

[MadBlaster]

try LandGeom=0? Or ;LandGeom=whatever. maybe that works, maybe not.

[raaaid]

landgeom doesnt seem to work

im running vista

the game still playable for me at 800*600 on sea, 25 fps, if only i found the way to eliminate stuuter over land

Bloody champ there mate. The thing is you are playing and having fun regardless rather than whine and b*ch like others.

Nice to see for a change. Hope you get online sorted and have fun up there. I haven't for myself but that is just me not spending enough time on it. :up:

Oh, too bad. Sorry I don't have the game yet, so i can only guess. I read over at SimQ somewhere that dynamical lights=0 helps a lot with fps. But that's not buildings. Maybe some of the other "land" settings you could try. Minimize sound settings should help, but it looks like you did that already.

You could also overclock your vid card a bit. Get rivatuner (freeware). Very easy to do. Just some sliders you move. Try something mild, like 5 percent increase and see if it makes a difference. Keep all the numbers (core/shader/memory in proportion to your stock settings and you should be okay. You should probably monitor your gpu temp just in case, but i doubt it will do much heat difference with just 5 percent. I'm sure there's guys out there that overclock that card. You could try their settings.

800 * 600 doesn't look too bad. As for overclocking, I doubt that you'll be able to do this enough to make a noticeable difference, though it might be worth a try. Watch the temperatures though, and don't push your luck, otherwise you'll be getting a new graphics card whether you like it or not.

Have you tried the alternate fictional maps - they were designed for online, so they probably have less detail, and they are much smaller.

its optional put a lot of buildings or few, why none?

i jumped online but is not playable by now due to stuttering

but i have hope ill be able to run this game smoothly overland at 800*600 soon:

i noticed while i play the game it uses 50% of the cpu and 30% of gpu memory

so its just a matter of time the teams optimizes the game

when the pc screams when playing the game they go it right, nows too silent

they probably didn't anticipate you, or anyone having a last century graphics card below minimum spec to try and run it.

I appreciate you are having fun too, but I'm not sure you can expect too much help on your setup because practically nobody will be trying to do the same.

Raaaid

in your conf.ini i noticed



;ProcessAffinityMask=2

you need to remove the ; so it looks like this

ProcessAffinityMask=2
