    Looks very interesting, although your file is massive. I'll still give it a go.

    looks interesting, just one question does this actually make the game faster or does it allow you to customize the settings better?

    etherway, great!

    Gosh... i thought the only setting i had high was the unit detail... obviously ultra adds a lot
    This speeds the game as well as giving greater control of graphics?

    Yep missing a hell of a lot of things, it allows you to select higher settings, but the horse power to run them. if you noticed my system specs are way lower than people who have high rigs,

    Only got a single core pc, and the GPU doesn't even get warm

    Set your setting to max everything, run the game, then install the Optimized pack, run the game again.
    You should notice a hell of a lot of performance and smoother.

    Big difference between 15fps Stutter and 15fsp smooth.

    The Pack contains just graphics, nothing else.

    HDR increased performance.
    SSAO increased Performance.


    Cheers ARCHIEIKE, please let me know and others how you get on

    Np ARCHIEIKE.

    AMD 3700 (stock single Core)
    O/S Vista 64 (tweaked)
    1 gig DDR
    XFX 9600GT (stock XFX)
    4gig page file
    250Gig HD
    U3 8 gig 4 gig ramboost

    AlacrityPC for service shutdowns before loading empires. which claws back 200meg.


    sound_file_caching true; # sound_file_caching <bool>, Sounds are preloaded at start of battle and campaign. increase performance. Default = true #
    sound_variations 1; # sound_variations <int>, Number of sound variations (0 == 2 or less, 1 = half variations, 2 = all variations. Fewer variations means fewer sounds but faster performance. #
    audio_memory_size_in_megabytes 200; # audio_memory_size_in_megabytes <int>, Audio memory size in megabytes. Default = (100MB). More memory means faster performance. #
    sound_channels 120; # sound_channels <int>, Number of sound channels. Fewer channels means fewer sounds but faster performance. #

    How do you open the Advanced option changer?
    At the moment i do see the improved peformance, but my horses and cannon's textures have been replaced by low res ones which is annoying, and I finally put the grass detail on high but it still looks as bad as on low.
