Did you knew that most people also use the no IFF quickaround to loldodge the TZ auto-aim? Seems it's a must among pro-cap drivers now.

Let me partake on your huehuehue and add another hue.

Frickin' spanish laugh.

Figures that everybody is abusing mechanics so much more nowadays. I wonder how long before it'll be like DayZ...

EDIT: Even though it's not really abusing the mechanics. :>

EDIT EDIT: hue.

It is, love. Them auto-aimers can't shoot straight with that.

It's totally T_T worthy.

So long as you aren't forcing your FPS to up or past 180 then you're fine. To clarify things to those who were wondering.

And since we're at it: "Remove ZOOM!!!" - had to Wink

Damn, then I'll have to remember to stop using engine kill and reverse to turn. I'll be abusing game mechanics.

Thanks for the info Swallow, I'll try it on my netbook.

I'd rather decrease the absurd number of allowed ale apps in dacom.ini, rofl

Oh and convert all the tga files in the txms to dds, that'd help a ton.

Probably would be a nice move.

Tip of the day: Don't let devs type random values that will slow down everyone's comp [Image: TScyf.gif]

The only drawback is that game will be looking a bit comics-like, though it gives two times more FPS (that is how I feel difference on my netbook) even at high resolution and maximum settings.
One side effect is windows does not like programs that use different bit-depth color palettes so you might have trouble with things like switching from full-screen to windowed mode or alt-tabbing through other programs

No, its not cheating unless you go way way up to 180+ FPS then its abusing game mechanics

I have no problems alttabbing, because I am using Game boooster as well...
Yes, thigs on my netbook are that bad.
Also if you consider that 40-50 FPS is a cheating, then you`re simply a monster.
I FINALLY can PLAY this game with FULL SET OF EFFECTS!

Also, it looks so charming at 800x600 16 bit resolution, like a real old game ^^.
Decreasing screen resolution may also give some spare FPS.
