Maybe I'm lazy, but I've never discovered anything that really gives me a full explanation of what all the options I have are regarding my video settings.
Right now it seems my two options are set things so I don't see stuff like trees, get good framerates but then see them get porked as soon as I get close to the ground, or _ even worse yet _ run the risk of flossing with a pine tree when it suddenly appears 100 or so yards in front of my plane.
I realize in AH we have a variety of options available to us when it comes to tweaking our video settings _ maybe too many.
The one thing I have never found, and this might be because of my earlier stated tendency to sit on my duff, is a good, comprehensive explanation of how to use the variety of video settings available. It's out there, in bits and pieces in various posts, but do we have a single guide somewhere that I can plow through at times when my employer thinks I'm constructively working to put their offspring through college?
Without such a thing, all the options in the world are pretty useless. Remember, gravity seems pretty self-evident now, but without Sir Issac Newton explaining it to us there'd be a lot of us believing that the only reason we don't go sailing off into space is because fairies are gripping us by the heels.
If such a thing is unavailable (a guide, not heel gripping fairies) because of the complexity of multiple hardware and system configs, then can one of our future patches include a minimum frame rate setting, where AH will start automatically shedding stuff to keep us in a playable range (I'm thinking about 25 fps)?
