RE: Best Possible Settings for MSTS

I adjust the sliders according to what I want to accomplish and usually that is performance. I have a rather antiquated system so have to sacrifice graphics at times. Other than upgrading hardware I know of no other way but maybe someone else will have a better idea.DC

I see you got the typical answers. Some not very helpful and some are typical for this forum. There is no correct answer. It really depends on your computer system and Graphics Card. I set all shadows off you really don't miss them. This was suggested to me by a Great Route Builder. A person has to experiment to find the balance each computer system will handle. Moving all the sliders one way or the other has to be determined by trial and error.Dave Horton
