Integrated graphics performance increases drastically with the faster system memory is, and the more memory you assign to it (you can set this in the bios, but be very careful and have a parent do it if you're a youngin', you could break the PC if you mess with the wrong stuff here). If the game runs at a speed below 20fps, it is not running in real time, and will generally not be an enjoyable experience, however, if you have a Skylake CPU or better but no Nvidia or AMD video card, you can still run on the integrated graphics*, provided you set your options and your expectations very low. Also, lowering or disabling AA or SSAO (if available) can help in some situations.įinally, if you have an APU-based laptop, or desktop with a 2.x ghz APU in it, you can turn off the above as stated, and disable 'collisions' for some performance boost, you can still hit objects with your vehicle but your vehicle cannot collide with (will pass through unharmed) other vehicles in play. A shiney car does NO good to anyone if you can't drive it because of poor graphics performance. If performance is poor turn off shadows to improve CPU performance, if graphics performance is poor, start by turning down or OFF the reflections (it controls what's in the mirrors and what reflects off the car to an extent). Poorly coded mods like vehicles (for example, one with a turbo/boost key/thruster key bound to it, would lag out my UI after a while in 0.8.x alpha).Ī computer that cannot keep up with the scene and events you're trying to play back, like too many cars or just too high graphics settings for your hardware, this is configurable and not a constant, however. UI issues + poor performance can come from one of the following:
