The ability Ramsa has to get the best out of a graphics card is quite astounding. I currently use an ancient TNT2 ultra M64. The processor is nothing special in todays standards, just a 1.2ghz AMD Athlon.
Bearing in mind that this card has no antialiasing available, the normal users options are limited, unless however, you know what you are doing.
Ramsa spent some time going thru my system and has got the card now producing images i didnt think the TNT2 ultra was capable of. Just running the DXDIAG is quite fun to watch, that rotating cube with the logo...you know the one. It's spinning so damn fast its a complete blur.
Any way, the screenshot attached doesnt do justice to the tweaks Ramsa has made, but i thought i would stick it up anyways......Its was from 1600x1200 and now resides on my desktop......enjoy (thanks to Ramsa!!!)

This is a shot of mine which also was taken at 1600x1200 and only marginally cropped if at all, then reduced to fit the format of 800x600 posting size........if this can be improved by Ramsa, then I will be getting in touch with him as soon as I get some free time.........Thanks in advance for the expert help..... 8)

I too would be interested in hearing Ramsa's ideas for a system tweak.

I'm no expert, but I presume that for the majority of systems the tweaks will be similar?

If so, maybe a tuning guide for the "uninitiated" is a good idea?

It seems easier that consulting everyone on a person-to-person basis, even if the resulta aren't as high that way.

Ramsa, does this sound feasable to you?

Ric-Barker,

The idea is really not that good and I'll explain why.

As I said to Rifleman I don't do just tweaking I do system enhancement which just by the nature of the title implies that each system has to be tested and adjusted seperately.

This includes the need for me to transfer files to you that are my own creations and my own property that I don't necessarily wish to release in a general way at this time.

I am always willing to work on an individual basis with the people on this site so please contact me either through MSN Instant messenger or through my e-mail at ramsa329@msn.com.

Ken your shots look so much better now, well done and Trev, yours too look great.

Guys I can't stress enough that it is far better to work with ramsa on a one to one basis. Virtualy every system is set up different. When he worked with my settings, I first had to work on various parts of my operating system before I could even think about my graphics and FS2k2 settings. Even now I am not 100% happy but ramsa will still give advice when he has the time.

I guess what I am saying is that it would be easy to post a list of enhancements for the sim, but for many this would not give them the results they expected due to their individual systems and I would imagine that would be followed by "negative press". Surely it is better to have your own system tailored to get the best from it? Well I think so.

Just one persons thoughts, keep up the good work all Wink
