Increasing animation / overall battle speed. Is it possible?

[DGDobrev]

I have tried something to that effect and it seems to be working.

I went into options and removed the "check" on anti-aliasing. This smooths edges for objects, thus making them more "real" when enabled, when disabled, it burdens your video card only a small bit, so it produces the movement much more rapidly. I also set shadows to "neutral". It is working wonders in crossworlds, which uses the same engine and textures as KBAP, so it might be worth giving it a try.
