Maxed out settings

Postby waterfall94 » Sun Aug 15, 2004 1:05 pm

Hey everyone, I just got Fs9 and I'm loving it. I'm just wondering if someone could help me max out my settings. I have a 1.8Ghz processor plus and 400mhz front bus, 512mb of DDR ram, an MSI Geforce4 TI4200 (128mb) . My monitor will also support many resolutions as it is a 21". Thank you.

I'm afraid its all trial and error.  Every system is different and will handle stuff differently.  You yourself have to experiment and you have to decide what you are happy with FPS wise.  

I will say the clouds in FS2004 really hurt FPS if set high and also AI set at 100% will hurt the performance too.  You have to find the settings that you think make it look nice but dont hit performance but as said you have to decide on this.

Instead of spending a bunch of your time with trial and error, I suggest contacting http://www.FS-GS.com. About $75 and a few hours, you'll be getting the best you can get with your system.
