Hi cheese!
I've got the latest iMac too but went for the i5 and 2GB vram. I've tested everything (I mean it). In short, the res on the iMac is what's stopping you from getting hi fps on hi settings. Problem is that if you go with a lower res then, in my eyes, it looks crap. Not like you can buy a new gcard and swap. Forget that route. You're stuck with what you have. Only upping available is RAM and that doesn't do anything to fps (I went from 4 to 12 without a single frame gained). But don't be put down. You can make this game look gorgeous. You just have some tweaking to do...and some waiting for the promised ">50% more fps" patch due any year now. ![]() I'll get back with my settings and other tweaks later. Got a kid that needs attention. Btw, I soft overclocked my card but that's just for seniors. The iMac is fast to overheat. I'll tell you more later. |

It is possible to run the game in window mode at acceptable resolution. 20" window is enough to play. I would try 1400x1400 window to be able to see instrument panel.

If the new card is adopted for new 2012 series macs then there could be a chance for 2011 series support? I won't get my hopes up, I know it's unlikely.

Also remember that the graphicscards fitted in the iMacs are the mobility type thus lower performance compared to regular ones. What you got is what you got. But when we get the next patch with the remedelled 3D engine then both u and I will be able to fly with decent frames. Until then you have to fly with low/med settings and tweak the system. Overclocking gave me 10 more frames but I can almost hear the mac squeeking from the heat. There are safe overclocks where u might get 5 more frames but you might as well wait for the patch. |
