I too would like to know this. Will we be able to apply our old graphic and texture mods from TMNF to this new Stadium? I have a lot of very cool graphical mods that completely change the textures and colors of Stadium, and would very much like to use them on new TM2 Stadium. For example, this is a
MUST HAVE mod that I desparately want to use in TM2

My experience so far: landing-bugs are even worser than in old TMNF

The car breaks away from its normal line and gets slower after landing.

I just wanna be sure... has the open BETA some limitation for graphics setting? I have everything maxed out via launcher, but the game just doesn't seem right. I feel like some shadows missing, ambient lighting, maybe AA isn't that good either. It just doesn't look and feel as the Canyon at same level of details. Is it deliberately lowered for BETA testing? Or there is something going wrong just with me? Players in-game were trying to make a fool of me, but it might be their problem, they can't see the difference, but I always do

I asked this question earlier, how much beta is TM 2 stadium really?
I feel that there really is something not right with the Graphics too...
On TMUF i run settings through nvidia CP, All very high, FXAA, SLI 32Q AA, 2560X1440 res, with v-sync on, constant 60 fps with around 1100 mhz memory usage on the gpu.
With TM2 Stadium, i run all settings from the game, preset very high, i get max, and this is max 25.30 fps with no V-sync and memory usage around 850 mhz.
And also, right now i find that that TMUF "looks" and "feels" a lot better.............TM2 Stadium looks almost "grainy" and blurry and add to that the new cam 2 and it just doesnt feel right......
Also, i find the game "dark", as in the light is "bad". Just go to the painter and look, for me it's almost completely black, i can hardly see the car.
I run win 8 pro, all updates, 2x GTX580 in SLI w/latest whql-drivers, Dell u2711 monitor, 27" 2560x1440.
With the same settings in Canyon i get around 50 fps with around 1200 mhz mem usage, no v-sync.
I also play far cry 3 with max Eye candy @ 60 fps, no v-sync.
Let's hope this is an veray early beta and that things slowly but surely will improve.... i have high hopes and i see things that makes me want this to improve ^^
