I have a GF2MX (gonna replaced with a GF2Ti these days) and I wanna switch off the effects of explosions and the smoke. Is there a ini-setting or something? Beside that It is well playable on AMD 750 + GF2MX.

Well but you have to think about notebooks too. Massive Assault is a perfect game to play during lunch. You know you can send ur moves and then go on with your work :wink:

An its no problem to implement a switch to reduce / remove the effects.

After I set it to 1024x768x16 its all good.

by the way - setting of DrawShadows to zero can increase prefomance dramaticly. Aslo Texture resolution to 8 reduce Texture Memory Usage for card with RAM less than 64Mb:-)
I have played MA on PIII 500 with 16Mb TNT2Pro without significant problems.

Yeah but by switching off smoke and explosions I would be able to switch to a even higher resoultion :wink:

You know I dont have a problem while moving things around. But when the unit fires three rockets it slows down like hell. So I give the command and scroll out of sight. After I heared the impact sound I scroll back and go on... .

MA is great because you could probably play it with 2d graphics (like advance wars, one of my favorites :smile:).

even though my card is almost obsolete it still works perfectly and my MA almost doesn't lag, even with the largest battleship attacks, 3 at a time, in a window.

it's not obsolete for this game. but try AA:O, or ut2k3 with that card it's painfully bad.

and the UT2k3 demo worked fine here, as well as many other games. BF1942 didn't work that good though :sad:
