You may need to trade quality for performance: ENABLE_AUTO_GEN=OFF MULTI_SKIN_MODE=DISABLE LANDSCAPE_TEXTURE_SIZE = 1024 Do_You_Want_Flak_And_AAA_Fire=OFF Collision_Detection_And_Avoidance=OFF Here is a list of the GUI big performance impacts. You may need to trade quality for performance: horizon distance = medium (saves 15%) or low weather = medium or low particle density = Medium or low Object Density = medium or low Object Quality = medium or low Water = medium or low That post and the manual give more information about editing bdg.txt. For problems around AA tracer animation, use particle density; for problems with large numbers of LW aircraft, (the RAF have far fewer texture variants) look at Multiskin. Every machine is a different combination, so tuning is likewise unique to the machine. Play around a bit, and check back if you need more results, and we can dig further.

Hi there,

Are you running with the multiskin mod enabled? I don't think it has been mentioned yet but the latest version of multiskin can be a real resource hog because it included all the skins for the bombers and zerstorers and stukas.

If so, may not have to go all the way and disable multiskin, you can try an older version which just had the fighter skins. Google multiskin bobII. I found an older copy here:
