  1. Any comments I made in this thread were out of profound sadness over what I perceive to be the impending doom of my own country, which I dearly love.

    Really!? Bloody hell, thats terrible m8 :(

    Y' know, for a small fee (whispers quietly) I'm sure us Brits would be willing to come back over and, er, sort things out for you, take up the reins again, etc.

    Tea anyone? :roflmao:

  2. Finally managed to boot the lazy gits out of the house for a couple of hours. Went for a walk on windy, overcaste but warm(ish) Branscombe beach;

    My youngest standing by the anchor of the Napoli. A lasting memorial to the greed and stupidity of a French salvage company and an English civil servant.

    Looking eastwards towards Portland Bill.

    Halfway up but as far as I could persuade the kids to go "I'm cold, Dad!"

    Old WWII pillbox overlooking beach. Cherbourg is about 150 miles due south so the only action this thing has seen is of the "Come and get 'yer knickers orf in 'ere darlin" type. :)

    It's got a commanding view of the beach westwards too. Anyone invading the Sea Shanty tearooms would be in big trouble. :knight:

    Still hoping for some snow though. Perhaps Wednesday?

  3. One more thing - have you installed the monitor drivers? If not, in the graphics card interface, the monitor will be called something like a 'PnP Generic Monitor' instead of it's make and model eg. LG L226W(Digital). Using the monitor drivers can improve visual quality and responsiveness.

  4. At the moment Sid, in the config file its running Hardware shaders=1

    sky=2

    forest=2

    water=1

    effects=1

    forceshaders=0

    In the game video set up texture mipmap is trilinear, texture compression is none and all the other boxes are ticked except clip hint and use pallet.

    The Nvidia control panel is still set to application controlled as in my experience thats the one where I usually manage to ruin my frame rates!! 

  5. Got UP2.0 up and running last night on a fresh install. I think I should go to town on the graphics settings as this will probably be our standard install for the immediate future.

    My system; Core2duo E6600 2.4ghz., Nvidia 9800gt card and 2gigs fast memory on Windows XP.

    Any recommendations on settings in the game's video options and in the config. file? I also have Nvidia control panel to really bu**er things up if required!

    I haven't altered anything yet. Just running perfect mode in 1280 * 1024 at my screens refresh rate at a nice smooth, solid 60fps. Any advice? I'm willing to trade 20fps as long as it keeps the smoothness for a little more graphical 'sparkle'. :)
