I'm runing GPL on AMD K6-233 with Verite 2100 4meg video card. Runs smooth until other cars in view. I have tried the 512x384 resolution, but on my stealth I get two tiny screens of the same picture (a refresh rate problem). Can anyone tell me how to set the refresh rate at that low resolution in Win95. Any other performance enhancing tips for this setup would be appreciated as well. Thanks in advance. ANash

GPL isn't out here yet, so I have a lot of time reading about it. From what I read here, it seems as if reducing the resolution won't help a lot, as long as you have a suitable graphics card (and you have). The most frequent tip I read is to turn off "specular highlights" etc., sky texture and textures in the mirrors (although the latter has a bigger effect on 3DFX cards than on Rendition ones, according to the lovely and talented Ms Hine). As for the refresh rate, you could try new drivers for the card. -- Wolfgang Preiss \ E-mail copies of replies to this posting are welcome.
