Will this map run under excellent mode or will it require the perfect setting?

Will this map run under excellent mode or will it require the perfect setting?

It's actually a set of maps, each depicting a separate timeframe

I made a mission for one of these Slot maps. My PC is not new, not the best, and not even running well. I had no issues on perfect...in fact, I have never heard of a map not being able to run under perfect. This is a function of your PC's performance, not a quality of the map. I can't see how this map is different from any other map in that your PC's power dictates how well it runs under perfect

I think he must be referring to the new textures being used.....reading the posts on many of these map threads there have been comments about perfect and excellent not giving the same look to the new maps or textures used.......IIRC

as we know....the perfect setting is good for those with hot computers......but even then a lot of objects on the map...such as Berlin, will affect performance

?? Isn't this because Perfect setting do change how the map looks, on every map? On my install, well before the hack, if I changed to 'excellent', it looked different...isn't this just how the option in the sim works?

I think the load.ini stuff was tested in excellent as well. I understand the question, restated, it is merely asking if the map looks acceptable in "Excellent." I think the answer is "yes," it looks worse in the same way all others look worse in excellent, but not in any odd ways.

I seem to remember an old conversation regarding that fact that some load.ini changes could produce a map that looks great in perfect, but much worse than usual in Excellent, and I think that was the point of the question asked.

I'll reset to excellent and poke around for you.

....if map_M.tga has been madden for this map .... it will run under excellent mode just fine ...

early map mods have issues with excellent settings cos we didn't know the use of map_M.tga at the time .... so we just ignored it :oops:

problem is that without proper map_M.tga game draws funny textures for distant land with excellent settings ....

well, just open normandy default one and you'll see .... basically it is just copy of map_t.tga in RGB mode with all used textures (colors/tiles) presented .... helps game to draw proper distance colors when in excellent mode .
