Choppy Graphics? (not on vista)

Post by DeToX »

Ok so i'm only windows xp running mtm2, and my game graphics are choppy, you can still identify which truck is which but it gets annoying when i'm trying to record something or just when i want to make it as realistic as possible when doing freestyle runs.

Well, I have Windows XP, and it works fine. Do you have your graphics on "Hardware" mode instead of "Software" mode?

LOL. Ok... Here's what you do.

Go in the Game and... Options > Graphics > Graphics Renderer

Instead of "Software Mode", choose "Direct3D (Most Hardware)."

That same problem plagued me for months. Just turn off truck reflections and you'll be fine.
