imo a year ago VG was a shitty game-diplomacy was god awful, and so was crafting

imo 6 months ago VG was a bad game-diplomacy was still bad, and i won't touch crafting with a 10' pole..

imo 2 months ago VG was an ok/decent game with shitty client performance on older systems....diplomacy was now a card game...and i still won't touch crafting...

with a few tweaks VG runs decently now...now i could figure out what the @#$%$@ is happening to kill my fps when in the SAME area for over 10 minutes (/flush is your friend)

my main tweaks- so far- select high performance then play with the sliders, Terrain Detail at high performance- is set at about 25%,...

going from 0% to 100% i saw a 2 fps difference..so i have that maxed(makes the world look SO MUCH BETTER), i have grass off, clouds i have off, clip plane is set low- i have not tweaked this, i am shooting for a clip plane setting of about 50,000 (500 meters) to 100,000(1 kilometer) (the game settings are in CENTIMETERS)
..

averaging about 25fps out of town currently and 18ish in town,....
