Cache and other options

Timber Loftis · 01-20-2003, 05:09 PM

What Cache Size and Frame Rate do most folks use? An Speed Adjustments? Just curious, as I have not edited these in AGES.

I'm running a 1GHz P3 and Cache is 350 - should I go higher?

With those specs, let me see - AI to 30 - thats a game speed adjustment and not really a performance issue. Cache to maximum, path nodes to maximum, enhanced pathfinding on and graphical options to your liking. Me, Id turn em all the way down and run at a high resolution, depending on my monitor size of course.

The only problem you may run into is the infinity engines dire 3d-acceleration - you may find that turning the 3d card off gives better performance.

Yap. I remember on my old comp, I couldnt enable 3D acceleration or the game would be unplayble. Now though I got a...hmm...fairly uppgraded comp and run the game in 1024*768 with all the eyecandy on [img]smile.gif[/img] (800*600 looks crap on a 19 inches monitor)
