    and still no tribes ascend sli profile ;'(

    even tho i get 150fps with my config that makes it look like a nintendo ds game(not me playing, but I use basically same config), but i want 300. Custom profile makes game crash sometimes.

    Installed, haven't had any issues so far. Of course the new driver resets any changes you've made to the global settings or game profile which is kind of a pain.

    Why do you make it look like that?
    It is easy to run at a high framerate.

    so i can see better
    low res textures help gauge distance better.
    it's required for my playstyle:

    all senintel
    or pathfinder sg spam

    i am usually sentinel now, and i am like the bestest


    actually i am exaggerating you don't need it, but it helps a tiny bit. idc about graphics at all for mp fps, i want them as low as possible.
