Just put a # before the browser you use, and make sure there there are not two or more browsers

selected. That is, deselect the windows browser

You already have everything disabled...so I'd just say avoid zooming way out.

Changing

 

#full_screen = 0

to

#full_screen = 1

 

would cause it to open in full screen initally and should result in better performance... Right?

Right

And change the resolution to 640x480, 16 bpp

[goatsgomoo]

And zoom all the way IN, not OUT. And maybe particles percentage to 0.

[Leeloo]

And change the resolution to 640x480, 16 bpp

On some cards 32 BPP is faster than 16.

[Puntif]

and run with the steepest possible vertical view angle (press the down-arrow key) to further reduce the amount of stuff your graphics card has to render.

On some cards 32 BPP is faster than 16.

Not really. Unless you use a stencil buffer.

ent, you know you still owe me that kiss right?

[johnttlin]

ok i will change all the things all of the players say.

It was on my Matrox, and wasn't lack stencil buffers the reason shadows didn't work on that card?

 

If only the 32 bit code paths are optimized, and 16-bit are done with and/or/bitshifting, 32 bit will be faster.
