I found the solution for choppy gameplay!

on my card at leats ( G4ti 4200).

I have searched this forum like a madman, and gathered info to improve the graphics and the choppiness. MY GAME IS SMOOTH NOW, who need a console...wow...

ok first here is what is in my SOCCER.ini file...

// Main configuration file for FIFA 2003 PC
//

AUDIO = 1
VIDEO = 1

// 0 = fastest (unsynched or triple-buffered)
// 1 = unsynched
// 2 = synched
// 3 = triple-buffered
VSYNC_MODE = 3

RENDER_EVERY_AI_FRAME = 3

DRAW_EVERY_AI_FRAME = 3

AUDIO_SAFEMODE = 0

--the render line is brilliant, whoever made that up is a genius ( EA get him/her) but ya, i know people have experienced slow motion on good cards with this, but the thign is ,as discussed inanother forum, you must set the detail to MEDIUM. it should work brilliantly...

--the draw line is another brilliant conecpt. someone on here suggested that, i'm sorry after this i will definitely put down users who are responsible for this great work. anyway, this is for the graphics to be HIGH CLASS, so basically even if u do have the detail on Medium, with this line ur basically playing at HIGH, so it doesn't matter.

Okay, another thing. on the display properties, here is what i got:

(nvidia geforce4 ti 4200)
in fifa: 1280x1024*32

3d Antialiasing: Quincunx Antialising, according to Silencer (we have all seen his brilliant graphics despite the photo tocuhup, still looks great ).

Direct3d settings: Enable fog

Mipmap Detail level: BEST image quality.

Open GL:

Enable buffer
Allow dual planes

for Vsync- On by default

Anistropic filtering: 8x

--So there you have that. As in game, i am getting from 60-80 FPS, the crazy thing is, i have all these other programs running, such as kazaa and the creation center download,haha. here are my specs:

1.2GHz AMd athlon proc.
128MB SDRAM mem
60.0 GB ultra DMA harddrive
32MB SDRAM

Okay, i also just reformatted last week, that could be the reason of such great multitasking.

Neway, i advise most of you to try those lines, tell me if it works or not, i just figured i'd try to contribute to the community a little since there are a bunch of people out here that have contributed immensely and have kept a low head about, thanks all.
peace

Its identical to the one up top if you didn't notice. but that's what my soccer.ini looks like, plus i have Sameer's gmplay patch installed, so ther are more gmplay lines underneath, but i didn't put them down.

Change the line:

RENDER_EVERY_AI_FRAME = 3

to:

RENDER_EVERY_AI_FRAME = 0

That solved my friends problem with slow motion.

Club Supporter
I know 0 is off, changing it to 0 fixed the slow motion while putting the number to 3 caused slow motion :D

But that means that it is not doing anything for you.

If it is off, then there is no reason to keep it in the soccer.ini because disabling it will not be using it anyway.

Those options for the soccer.ini are absolutely magnificent! I got my Geforce 2 Ti running things so smoothly!

well done.

of course it ain't running the fps of those GF4's... :rolleyes:
