littlejohn1959 Posted April 5, 2008 Author Posted April 5, 2008 distance of high quality ground textures and textures of roads/rivers thanks . i am sure i read a thread a while back , that you posted to about this setting . another question ? the higher the setting , the lesser the texture? or vise-versa ? does this setting impact my fps? thanks again for the reply . cheers .

Kuky Posted April 5, 2008 Posted April 5, 2008 The higher the value the further out you will see high quality texture and that will require more texture to be loaded into video card memory... which will reduce performance... not by much if you have top end video card but it will reduce it. No longer active in DCS...
littlejohn1959 Posted April 5, 2008 Author Posted April 5, 2008 my 7600 gt is a midrange card . i am planning on a 8800 series in the near future though . i am just trying to tweak a small bit , to get a better look , but not at the cost of to much performance . i installed tekas structures visability mod . the medium one . that seem to work out good . no pop up trees works good also . i guess i will have to wait for a better card before i can do any real tweaking . thanks much for your replies here . have a great weekend . cheers . i found the thread you started . http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=22822&highlight=fps+loss+with+gun [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
rattler Posted April 5, 2008 Posted April 5, 2008 LOFC is CPU heavy. The athlon 3700 is a little low. Card could be higher but some here are still using it but with a faster CPU. Rattler (Gander)
