My actual video card drops to 8-10 fps, with full grid and the start line...when i driving alone, and with the view of the driver and visible tyres, rise until 40 fps...

very weird, but this game its great!!

I got it, but at the end of the day I never gonna be happy with a wrong choice...i dont find reasonable spend US$ 150 in a video card, i'll prefer save that money and buy a better pc

dynamic tyre wear: Isn't that what we have now? I'm sure it'll get better still - heat cycles, blistering, etc one day

I mean, like netkar pro, its really coool to see how the tyres are losing the rubber!!

Quote from AndroidXP :

It depends on what graphics card you have now. If it is a GeForce2 or a GeForce4 MX then I'd go with a newer GFX card. Probably a good value for your money would be an Ati 9600-9800 Pro, or if it can be a bit better even a GF 6600 GT. If you can get your hands on a cheap GF4 Ti 4600 or something that would also be good. Don't go for the GF 5*** FX series, they are utter crap.

If you have a graphics card that IS capable of HVS (again, everything > GF2/GF4-MX) then I'd go for a CPU upgrade. LFS isn't very graphics demanding, besides needing a HVS capable GFX card. It's much much more reliant on raw CPU power to calculate all those physics.

I'm looking if the GEFORCE FX5200 256MB AGP have this feature (HVS)

yeah, i'm be able to pay until 36 pounds, after this.... I don't want to pay other 12 pounds!!! weelllll, maybe if the game have dinamics tyre wear, umpredictable change wheater, some people on the track (silverstone 2004?!?), real life pit communication, real damage model, etcccc

Quote from AndroidXP :

Ok, this is really the weak link in your system then. The problem is that your card doesn't support Hardware Vertex Shading, which decreases performance considerably. Any better card that supports this should give you already a pretty good gain in FPS.

OK AndroidXP, thats the choice

Quote from Tooby :

Hi!
I went all the way...
I had a 1.7 Ghz with a MX2 card (i think?), the computer was stumbeling a 5-20 fps. then I bought new motherboard(aopen i915ga-e) with onboard graphics and a Intel p4 3.0 dual core. This made lfs to run at 45 fps. Then I bought a graphics card, ASUS extreme N6600GT and when I enabeld "hardware vertex shading", "24bit" depth and 1600x1200 I now have 92 fps. In my case the graphics gard made huge difference. I could not enable vertex shading before.

/Tooby

Thats my point!! with a very good card I hope to get a good increase on the fps. After all, my idea is to buy a new computer as soon as I can do it.

I have a Nvidia G force 400mxmx, agp, 32 mB, and with my actual PC, I got 10-20 fps.

i just want...someday.. to buy my own car, you know, a car editor, a track editor , everything

REgards from Colombia Scawen, great simulator, great experience....

Quote from ORION :

I would rather get a 9700pro or 9800pro with 128MB
Those cards in the list above are not worth their money if you ask me.

Yep, it worth less than I figured out...

the pc's performance its the big deal with this game, I got GTR and my framerates are around 30 - 35, and the game runs quite smooth....

yep, nice artwork, very immpreesssive

hmm, i thought that a new card can be useful....My pc its a pentium IV 1.8 Ghz...

I need your help!!! I’ve a nvidia agp 32 mB and I want to buy a new video card, my fps are pretty low with 12 cars...
some of them are,

#1 ATI RADEON 9250 128MB AGP TV OUT
#2 ATI RADEON 9250 256MB AGP TV OUT
#3 ATI RADEON X300SE 128MB PCI EXPRESS
#4 VIDEO GEFORCE FX5200 256MB AGP TV OUT
#5 GEFORCE MX4000 128MB AGP TV OUT

Many thanks!
