I still dont know what SMS game mode is all about? What are you supposed to do?

Here is how the game looks to me

Hey what settings are those? If they are at the highest settings, nvidia seems to have some driver issues with this game. It looks far better on my comp with a 9800. Check the screenies aces posted. they look so much more vibrant and colorful.

Thats with AA off, I tried with ingame AA full on stable FPS at 25 and it looks much better!!!!

Bottle was right too many jagged lines without AA. Bottle try at 1024 btw for 9600 XT thats awesome...

i m using 1024*768 with aa set to half bar (not sure what value it sets it to!) and all settings to full detail and it looks great and works like a charm

Just updated to 70,72 Its totally awsome!

**Chaos** · 29-10-2004

I'm averaging around 30-35 with the AA bar set to max. Wonder what that is... 4x or 6x. No clue.

Hey stalker how bout a screenie at 1600*1200 all max?

**Rave** · 29-10-2004

ok, an update.... just saw what bottle was talking about.... the outrun challange.... this is the thing that sets this game apart from the other..... its like this, in the free roam

there are other cars too driving here and there, when ever you come close, and i mean very close to it, a car icon flashes, when you press enter, the outrun challange will begin, the idea is simple... leave ur opponent behind and the distance should be 300 mts and you'll win :party:

sonds easy huh? believe me its not, sometimes you are lucky enough to beat the opponent in less than 10 secs.... but most of the times there will be a looooooooooong chase, this is the best part, its still quite easy, but much much better, as the other car never seems to loose hope and follows you forever

my shortest session was 9.x sec
and my longest session was 10 mins

but damn, there is no damage feature, a major letdown...

and no cops... grrrr
and ppl, any info on LAN play?

Hmm, must try this outrun! sounds cool! Doesnt free roam remind you of GTA, or is it just me?
And im playing at 1024/768, 2x AA , 4x AF, but a couple of options turned to low or medium : road reflections [i hate them they make the road look like a mirror] and those extra contrast extra brightness things off. Runs pretty ok, not as well as id like it too.
Question : Does MOTION BLUR affect AA? It used to have an effect in NFSU1 right?
