This thread will be used to collect first measures to make the game rune smother.

Since it is based on the ut engine all the things that make it run smoother will also help here.

Ini tweaks
The inis can be found in Hi-Rez Studios\games\tribes alpha\TribesGame\Config

tribes.ini
[SystemSettings]
MotionBlur=false
DepthOfField=false
Bloom=false
LensFlares=false

Removes effects based on the movment and therefore should help reducing the load on the GPU and CPU.


[SystemSettings]
StaticDecals=false
DynamicDecals=false

This will remove decals that are most of the time not really necessary in the first place.

[SystemSettings]
DynamicShadows=false
LightEnvironmentShadows=false

Pretty obvious

[SystemSettings]
Distortion=false

Will remove distortion effects in air for example caused by explosions.
