How to set the graphics of Mafia II at it best

[Head-Hunter]

Basic and recommended hardware requirements for the game has you all know by heart (the fan is indeed one of the most important things). Even if it happened that your PC does not meet specified performance standards, it is not cause for despair. Even the weaker groups of Mafia II is a graphically squeeze out a lot - we will now show you how.

As can be seen in the recent screenshot of comparing different video game settings to low detail game looks great. Let us now go through the most important part of the graphic settings in which we encounter in the game. Their effective settings can make a big difference - the weaker groups should be completely removed annoying stuttering or even increase frame rate. Sector.sk brought an interesting article, which can slightly converged:

How to set the graphics Mafia II

1. Shadow Quality - increases the shadows of trees and buildings, but also the shadows thrown on trees and buildings. At low settings of this indicator shadows on buildings and not so active desktop world. It is better to be modified from inside the higher value, performance PC is not particularly hurt.
   
   
2. Geometry detail - only the additional parameter, which reduces or increases the geometry (better rendering) objects at greater distance. Here you can settle for the golden mean values.
   
   
3. Ambient Occlusion - the indicator that adds reflections from the models (because everything looks more real), can be turned on or off. But has a big impact on framerate, so if you play the cuts and want to avoid, just start with this indicator.
   
   
4. Antialiasing - aliasing. Here is just off unexpectedly, or turn. Difficult to predict whether a standard MSAA, or something else. Pity, I would prefer the classic settings (4x, 8x), whereby one could extract the maximum from the GPU.
   
   
5. Anisotropic filter - filtered textures in the distance, making them stronger and more beautiful details. Indicator of performance penalty, so it is recommended to have turned to maximum filtering - 16x.

Note:

This set will not affect image quality too, but they raise the performance of your hardware. The game according to them it looks pretty well these indicators set at the minimum, plus you will save tearing problems that can occur in some reports.

The configuration settings but unfortunately lack of visibility, making the game go better. With default settings that the game is, when driving around town trip around new objects are added (suddenly emerge), which operates much of anything. But even so the game in terms of graphics, at above average levels. I'll have a week in which Aug. 10 expected based on the demo.
