;Maximum texture size (Larger sizes uses more video memorynormal textures)
:Choose from 256, 512, 1024 and No Limit. This setting has a heavy impact on performance and graphics quality. It effects the quality of all models in the game.

;Use [[Wikipedia:Occlusion culling|occlusion culling]]Pretty weather:Will give Have OFF for performance. Performance will drop a performance boost great deal when it starts to rain, but on some computerswill make weather (mostly fog) look nicer (but more annoying), mainly if you're inside buildings or behind larger objects. It spares the rendering of objects but weather is really nice anyway so it´s up to you can't see. On computers where it doesn't work, turn it OFF for a small performance gain.
