[B3.1] Suggestion: different graphical settings

Just to come back with this one.

We really need different graphical settings for each game. I can play canyon nicely (45fps), but I can't play stadium/storm with the same settings (both are slow as hell and under 20 fps).
Result of this is, I don't play them. Shouldn't the new engine of stadium make the game looking better while using less resources (at least in canyon it works the way).

Agreed, something is not right here with the Graphics in TM2 Stadium.

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.............

Also, i find the game "dark", as in the light is "bad". Just go to the painter and look 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 ^^

My setup does the opposite with tm2 canyon running on 24fps and stadium running on 40-45fps. Odd.

I am running Trackmania 2 Stadium Max Settings with 120-150fps.

Do you have potatoes as your computer? ;)

But yes TCQ this is a great suggestions for players with bad computers/laptops/netbooks.
