Don't know, I left it on 2010 gameplay as I don't want to change anything for time trial.

Murray · 22 May 2011 at 23:26

Trying it now. My Multisampling works at that level you have it but any higher and the game does what I have explained.

SPARC · 22 May 2011 at 23:28

How can you put it higher ? 8x is my max ... must be a Nvidia thing I'm guessing.

Murray · 22 May 2011 at 23:29

I can get 8xQSAA or something and 16xCSSA or what ever then it does that, Suppose 8xMSAA is still pretty sharp.

Ok so installing the mod made me lose half my screen again!

Uninstalling it re-fixed it though, It might be because I am trying to install Weather and Lighting Mods with it as well?

SPARC · 22 May 2011 at 23:36

I done all the graphics mods in one go. I really have no idea what's going on with it. You could try doing one thing at a time but that would be up to you.

SPARC · 22 May 2011 at 23:38

If it was me I would trying doing just the cars and track lighting, those 2 make the biggest difference to the game.

Murray · 22 May 2011 at 23:39

I am trying the cars on there own first now then if it works fine will add the next one etc

SPARC · 22 May 2011 at 23:39

Also turn off afterburner ! I just noticed in my sleepy state that you have it. My game hated it even when it was vanilla. I'd go as far as saying don't use it with this game.

just read your edit nvm.

Ok it worked with just the cars, Going to try the graphic mods now.

SPARC · 22 May 2011 at 23:47

I'll stay up and keep you company for the next 15 minutes

Murray · 22 May 2011 at 23:48

You got steam?

SPARC · 22 May 2011 at 23:49

yes but I'm moving back to laptop and bed

Murray · 22 May 2011 at 23:50

Ok.

Graphic mods mate it twitchy again, Might it be the AI mod?

SPARC · 22 May 2011 at 23:56

I honestly have no idea.

You could try manually overwriting the track lighting files, just copy/paste from the mod folder into the proper directory of the main game, although thats essentially what the installer is doing.

Murray · 22 May 2011 at 23:56

Ok think its the graphic mods can you get them seperate?

SPARC · 22 May 2011 at 23:58

You could go to plan G lol and look on the race department site for a stand alone lighting mod, of which there are plenty, and try that.

Edit: Snap!

SPARC · 23 May 2011 at 00:01

Keep the cars mod installed then find a nice lighting mod by RDDEV, they do the best stuff.

Murray · 23 May 2011 at 00:05

Going to try a Weather mod, AI mod and Lighting.
