Prounreal UT3 Tweaking thread/guide -- download a .ini file

[WHIPperSNAPper]

I found an interesting thread about UT3 tweaking at the Prounreal community discussion forums. If you're having FPS issues, you can download a tweaked .ini file that might help:

It says it's not going to help much with fps.

UTEngine.ini

[Engine.GameEngine]
bSmoothFrameRate=False

[Engine.Client]
MinDesiredFrameRate=999.000000

[SystemSettings]
StaticDecals=False
DynamicDecals=False

Thats what i have at the moment, however it's by no means the best and you might want to enable dynamic lights and possibly disable a few other things...trial and error really.

Textures i have on 3 and world on 1 (world detail is altered when you edit the ini)

Also, if you are using an x-fi card try playing without it. I personally got a 20fps avg increase.

Stats : Heatray I started (vanilla regarding tweaking) with an average of about 60 fps and now i get 110. It is slightly flawed however, as two specific buildings in the background drop me to about 40/50 whereas the rest of the map i get a minimum of 100, peaking about 200.

ah i see........................ ok not really WHAT DOES THat mean in my terms?

Go to my documents > my games > ut3 > config > UTEngine.ini and change the values of the ones i've shown.
