i did some playing about today, with GFX settings, one thing i cant decide is whether a lower resolution with more AA is better, or a higher resolution with less AA.
but here's some of my findings.
@1440x900 (16:10 aspect ratio) AA forced to 8x AF forced to 16x both in Nvidia cp
on the RoF settings page Trees-high Grass-off Shadows-off Landscape-low Textures-high Reflection-off
all post unticked and off AA off filter@8x vsync on
the ones i have underlined are the big changes from my usual setup, i know we all like shadows, but right now they are not a big deal to me, its a flight sim after all so shadows under trees or hangars dont matter so much, but because there are a lot of trees and stuff, there are a lot of shadows, seems this is a cpu intensive process, and it gives me a more stable fps especially near buildings and forests. same goes for reflections, i guess once the game has had a few patches, and it has been optimised a little i can start turning things up.
im gonna keep testing the resolution vs AA

Hey guys, we're trying to get servers set up, Kaiser , Scif and myself. Scif has managed to get a server up, Kaiser and I haven't. we've tried all the "tricks", Kaiser has a very similar set up to Scif, including router, yet only one can get it working.
What way are you guys going?, I see you've had success with at least one of you, has anyone else had any joy?

I can get it going now via my BT HomeHub 2.0, WWBrian gave me a pull out, it works fine now.....for everyone else who joins, I get a semi slideshow FPS wise.
I need a beefier CPU, my E6750 @ 3.2 doesn't cut it. A Q9650 is what I need, or should I say, it's the best it will accept.
You running through DMZ?
My problem was I had the ports opened on my router, but I wasn't pointing them to my IP.

i dunno what the problem is with my router, but a lot of games just will not appear when im using it, so i just use the cable modem alone and its fine, fps wise, well, im using a E6850 @ 3.8, and it works very very well, right now im really pleased with RoF, just need the dogfight servers and ill be as happy as a pig in sh*t.
come join us one night vapour, scif and the others too if ya like, im sure together we would have some fun, and one of us might be able to get your fps a bit better, we got one or two things worked out.
