Awesome shots there, I liked the original TM but had to stop playing it - for some reason it made me throw up. Several evenings in succession.

::) ;D

When you start Trackmania click configure...figure it out from there lol. Also depends on your graphics card. My 8800GT shows the same as the above but my dad's good work computer doesn't display nearly as nice but is still smooth.

the game automatically chooses the best graphics settings for you when you first load it... but you can go in the Configurations menu to tweak the graphics manually if you want...

by default you will have your 'recommended' settings, and most options will be disabled... you have to check the 'customized' checkbox to be able to tweak all the settings...

there is also a 'Bench' option that will fire up a demo and then tell you your average FPS running that... anything over 25 is fine

i turned it up nearly to max and i'm benching an average 26.7 FPS on my 8800GTX running Triple Head... i was quite impressed at how well this game can handle such nice looking graphics and still run fast... (kicka** engine there ;) i wonder which one it is...)

Cheers

I've got one, but it's just a USA car with =SimV= and my name on the side. I'll work on one tonight.

I set mine on Normal and get a bench of 57.2 FPS which is just great! (8800GT 512mb) 8-)
