Hello everyone, I remember when VU10 just come out, I count not play it for months, I was very close to leaving PE for good, but then I researched a few little tweaks.
So give it a try, it will smooth the game alot at a cost of a few things, all particals, water and cloud effects have been removed, and most of the smaller vegtation, also lighting had been cute down and shadow + shading removed.
All designed to improve fps. This file also cuts some resolution, but that wouldnt be noticable to much.
Step 1: Search you'r system for settings-ce.cfg
Step 2: open the file and overwrite with this script:
Step 3: Save and run the game! Simples!
If you wish to find out more about the lines of code for a more detailed custom tweak, check out http://www.tweakguides.com/
If you experience a problem and wish to contact mindark about your problem, reinstall the game and see if you still have the same problem with out editing the file.
I hope that clears up everything and hope to see some of the players missing out soon <(n.n)> c ya
