............and of course if you use DirectX you cannot play the game in 'Perfect' Mode too :wink:

Simply my computer cant take it really, Its got the RAM, so loading etc is fine. By graphics card is the major issue. Its a ATI with 256Mb space at clock speed of 450hz which isnt good at all. Thus to keep my FPS around 30-40 i have it on Direct X,@ urufu_shinjiro: on Open GL the effects become too high and it decreases performance. As proberly what your gunna say is "Will you get a new card?" answer will be yes. But first i need a new case because its too damn small to fit any larger cards in.

Which ATI card by the way? That makes sense I guess. Have you tried switching to opengl and then turning down the effects in the conf.ini? Thats what I used to do when I was running an old 9550. Turn water=0, forest=0, shadows=0, effects=0, and hardwareshaders=0 and it will still look better in opengl and should run about the same, worth a try anyway.
