Hey Drilla, your the only one i know i can ask for that. Which programs did you use for your latest videos. I love the way of station names fading in with those nice graphics around the text. How did you manage that? I mean that:

Looks good.... Power Director, makes me think of He-Man :D

I´m gonna try it, but first i have to complete any map...

I was just curious;)

Yeah, i like my own videos too^^

Unfortunately they forced me to delete two songs from part 1 of "Metropolregion Drachenbucht...", which was my favourite one. Well, i have the video right here on my laptop and can watch it whenever i want to, but you.... i´m sry. I dont think it would bother Joe Satriani to hear his music on an A-Train-Clip, even if there is an unexpected audience included^^

Hey Drilla,

I want to buy a new computer and return into the club of videomaker^^

But i´m unsure about the power needed to provide a good performance. Your Clips look awesome and free of any lags, so please tell me some facts about your hardware, ok?

Would be nice to know (from others too, may we all improve our language skills^^).

My rig:
i5 3450, GTX 970, 16GB Ram, Win 10

FPS is very volatile and depends mostly on the position of the camera. With a very flat camera view fps drops to about 20-25, with a steeper camera view fps is about 30-40. What realy kills fps is using the picture-in-picture mode, fps is halfed.

Ingame settings: water, shadows, no LOD, blooming, anti-aliasing, max viewing distance, dynamic light

Disabling shadows brings a lot of fps, the effect of disabling blooming & anti-aliasing and enabling LOD is rather small.

I checked the fps on rather developed maps (Enoshima and the one with full of farms).


I think with a GTX960 and a newer/faster i5 you should perform better than me.
But then again, the graphics engine isn't realy optimized so flat camera angles and PIP will always result in low fps.

ok guys,

thx a lot:)

It´s good to have some parameters compared before buying and then having the same crap as before. Since the first time i have always played on my Notebook. It´s an i5 processor with 2,8 GHz and Intel Graphics 4400. It doesn´t cause any troubles while playing medium developed maps, just the densely built maps sometimes get laggy. While recording the delays mostly increase a little, but that seems normal to me. Surely, it doesn´t look that nice on YT. So i put lots of hope into my new graphics. Unfortunately there´s no simple way to change it.
