Kyro 2 and Tribes 2 owners, please post your results here!

I've been hearing mixed results about this game and performance as related to Tribes 2. Some say it plays great and some say it runs like sh!te. What I'd like to know is what system specs, drivers, direct x... etc you guys are running that are getting good results.


Thanks

Tribes 2 runs great on my box with the Kyro II. I've tried it w/DX8a and the latest Open GL and they are both real smooth with most of the options maxed.

When I started playing I only had a TNT1/K6 2-450/192MB PC66. Now I have an Athlon 1.2 and 256MB of PC2100 DDR . I also have no more excuses for only scoring 3 points a game .

you mind jotting down your in-game settings?

Video: OpenGL 800x600 32bit Disabled Vertical Sync

Graphics: Everything High; Precipitation, Decals, dynamic interior lights, interior fog off; Terrain details, dynamic terrain lights and vertex lighting on. Sky Box only, first person items only.

Textures: 32 Bit, no compression, all high except sky. Both environment maps on.

I find that I get some artifacting with the shadows all the way up, so I sometimes turn them down. I don't know if these are the best settings for this game, but I am happy with them.


Hope this helps.
