Huge Performance Increase
Turn off Shadows
May sound obvious but the decrease in quality is nothing compared to the increase in performance. |

...for nvidia cards. It's a known issue at the moment with those.
No need to do this on ATI cards, as it seems the impact of shadows on those is not huge.

I just don't have that problem, got the Gforce 9800 GT,
When I installed the game it asked for me to update the drivers and that was it. Been running smooth since. |

Mines fine, but there is a noticeable decrease in certain areas of the ship. I have the absolute latest drivers GTX 295, and when I turn off shadows, HUGE performance increase. Everything is 60+ with them off. Average is probably 60 with them on but it dips to 20-30 in the sub command room.

....really strange. Running a Q9550@3,4GHZ, 8GB RAM and a Zotac GTX260 AMP on W7 64bit the frames drop dramatically inside the boat and I noted mouse lags. As soon as I disable the shadows everything is smooth.
