| 1 | Listen up, maggot. So you're getting shitty frames? | |
| 2 | Gonna cry to mommy like a VS cocksucker? Or are you going to do something about it like a real man, a TR man? | |
| 3 | Fuck yes you are. | |

| 5 | PS2 is a piece of shit that doesn't like using your shiny master race CPU. | |
| 6 | These settings will shift a lot of the work away from it, and onto your GPU instead. | |
| 7 | Your game should run smoother and look prettier into the bargain. | |
| 8 | If the second part of this sounds better than the first, you're a VS nancy boy. | |
| 9 | ||
| 10 | ||
| 11 | Start the PS2 launcher, and click the small blue hexagonal spanner/wrench icon on the bottom left hand side - advanced settings - and click "open game directory". | |
| 12 | Open up UserOptions.ini in notepad (or your preferred text editor). | |
| 13 | Copy/paste these settings over the existing sections. Just do it, don't ask why - you can work it out later with Google if you want. | |

| 52 | Make sure you're running fullscreen at your monitor's native resolution. | |
| 53 | ||
| 54 | Everything is now cranked up to MAX (or near enough for your purposes) except shadows and flora because these kill only your CPU. | |
| 55 | ||
| 56 | You can turn shadows off totally and get more frames guaranteed by setting ShadowQuality=0, but it looks like ass so don't do it unless you have to. | |
| 57 | Now start up PS2 and look in your graphics settings. Everything that was Low/Medium/High but is now blank is on ultra settings. | |
| 58 | Don't touch these in-game because you can't set ultra without editing UserOptions.ini. | |
| 59 | Everything that shows a value can still be played around with, such as render distance, render quality or FOV. | |
| 60 | ||
| 61 | Pressing ALT+F in game will show your current frames in the bottom left of the screen, along with your current bottleneck - GPU or CPU. | |
| 62 | If this shows CPU and your frames are still too shitty, you should now try turning shadows off. | |
| 63 | If it shows GPU with shitty frames, try turning down lighting, particles or effects until it gets better. | |
| 64 | If all else fails, try a lower resolution or GustavoM's potatomode settings as follows. | |
