FPS drop in Armagetron

Post by gawdzilla »

Title says it all. I'm losing a lot of FPS and I don't know why, I'm not very technical, so I'm asking your help... I use tron client 2.8.2 r2, windows 7 Ultimate, my graphics card is an ATI Radeon 2600 XT Pro. I use FPS-friendly settings in tron and I put my graphics card to optimal performance, still, I play tron with 10 FPS.

Something I need to turn off here? IDK! :(

Yes, yes and never.
