Mx0 ·· The balance of "options.cfg" and "useropts.cfg"

I've always had the Hyperspeed trail disappearing, but recently I upgraded my 3d card from a GeForce 7900GT to a Radeon 3870. I kept my old useropts, didn't change my game settings at all and a lot of my effects aren't there anymore. Just like your problem, could it possibly be your rig? Mine chokes even at 1.25, so I made my own "1.1" setting. But it never seemed to be related to my useropts.

Well then it could conceivably be an ATI-specific problem then, huh.  That stinks.  I had to drop down to the 1.25 configs because they seem to display the effects most frequently while still giving me half decent draw distances.  I wish I could go higher, but I do like all those effects too.

I think I've narrowed it down to these three settings:
dl_sid_prefetchradius
dl_sidi_prefetchradius
dl_nav_prefetchradius

When I drop these three settings down, my effects appear more frequently, but things stop being drawn further out.  The fog is still way out there, but it looks as if bridges and buildings have just been sliced in half with a knife!

Hmm,,, ill have to mess with those 3 and see if i have any similarities.  Like Pylat, I also am ATi.  I have a new rig with two of the Radeon HD 3870's (oc edition, with 1gb of GDDR3, runs on DX 10.1 tech, with shader model 4.1, etc) on a new CrossfireX motherboard with two of the newer PCI.e 2 (X16) lanes, with a CrossFireX bridge, to totally complete the Quad-GPU's connection.  8GB's dual channel DDR2 (four 2gb ddr2 dual channel nvidia SLI sticks)  ....*gasp! , sorry, i 4got to breathe!*  Well anyway, its not done yet, I'm waiting on finding a couple specific parts that i want, instead of finishing it with any old part(s)...  dont wanna spend the money on something im just gonna replace soon -ya know?   Too bad this Rig i've been typing about here wont enhance MxO much, if any.  =(  sorry, kinda got excited thinking about the completed project.  It will be by far the most enhanced Rig i have ever made.  As long as Pylat has the same Radeon 3870 version that mine are, im sure he'd understand.   rofl

MXO - "Search"



...Hi all!


It is long time ago, I was really not often here in the last months - Ann probably much longer. We haven't interrupted our mxo subscriptions since beta, but we spent more time in real life in the last time. Of course we love still our Mega City and it is sad what happened to this simulation or game. We miss many lovely people and friends. I plan to spend lil bit more time here in the future. I ask me, who is still here from the old community. Some of you probably created new characters and used new names. I would love to meet some of you people.

If there is someone from the mxo past, answer to this thread or contact me or Ann over PM. Don't forget to tell us your ingame name and time range when you are jacked in.

I hope to find some of you nice people again.

It was very nice to see you on Recursion yesterday.  It's good to hear that you and Annie are doing well.  Congratulations on your hot new notebook computers, they sound like they could smoke every desktop gaming rig out there.  Annie's useropts.cfg files are still the standard for players starting to mod their graphics settings.  "The Bazman Sisters" are as much a part of MxO as  Morpheus and Niobe are to The Matrix and we're glad you are still here!

It is very good to see you two around again.  As PS10N said, you both are great players from the good old days, and it's wonderful to have you back!

Mx0 ·· "Search 2" 

Hi dear mxo friends!

I haven't really much time in the past and visited Metro City not very often. I know it makes Arzu sad, but it wasn't possible. I promise I will jack in more in the future. It were really cruel to let such a fantastic simulation die. Arzu, I miss the old times too, as the Bazman Twins were in action. I will support you a lil bit more, if I can.

I made some tests with a new version of the "options/useropts" files (x8.00). And I must say, here is probably the end. The view distance is so big, that I see till the end of the scenery. In smaller districts like "International" you see the border where the scenery grid ends. To be ownest, it looks not very good, when you see where the matrix world ends. It is still possible to use such a version in Richland and Downtown, when you make photos in a special direction. In short words, here is probably the end, the computer and video card must be that strong. My cooler won't stop to run. In my eyes is the current version 'x4.00' the perfect choise. And like the name of this thread says, its a good balance and not a maximum, that counts.

Okay, also I would like to meet some old mxo legends and make Arzu lil bit happy when I jack in more often.

good bye

Ahh yes the Bazman twins THE GODDESSES of useropts ALL HAIL!!! nice to see such lovely ladies back in the simulation.

Welcome back ladies...

... Some of us old people are still here, lurking in the shadows.

Arzu!  Annie!  <3

I'm still around, but mostly on the forums.  You guys should swing by the DOE boards again and say hello.  Anyhow, if you two know when you're going to be around in the simulation, I'll make a point to jack in and say hello.

Oh NO!

Oh my dear god, our lovely matrix should end? What should I do with Arzu, she will die when it ends here?.

** very bad news are that, makes me really sad too, oh nooo...

Hi Fen!

Thank you - I should really visit your forums there. The first idea I had as I heard it, was "Server" a new server for MXO elsewhere. I ask me if something like that can be realized. How expensive is something that a company owns but won't to continue? Who will keep the whole code, the database and the admin tools for build and edit the mxo? Will that stay somewhere in a safe on a xx TB Harddisk? Is it possible that a company would sell this data, for which they aren't interested anymore? I think still that this special simulation had something that no other game ever had. I would like that someone from the company would exactly inform us what exactly will happen with the code and DB of MXO, so that maybee a group of people could start a search for new investors or plans for a future solution of MXO. But when I see, what happened with the old original MATRIX webpage "whatisthematrix.com", I fear really they only deactivate things and plan nothing. I don't understand it till today, why was it necessary to close the old matrix page, as example. To pay the space for this page on a web server is a joke. Who said the world don't need a really good page for the MATRIX Trilogy anymore? No, the clever people there decided it can be deaktivated and replaced with the "10 dvd disks matrix ads" or blu-ray version. Why? Every good movie has a webpage. Sometimes I think, in the whole MATRIX market were only idiots at work. Ok, I won't go too deep, but that mxo ends was never a problem from the product self. I will say the same in 10 years, this fantastic simulation was only in wrong hands after it was developed.

** grrrr...

It is rather disturbing that an IP as rich as The Matrix could fail. It is the ideal MMO concept, nothing could be more logical for the platform.

Hi Ikkaku, young man!

What should we do? Is it the time to let mxo born again? But now with our development. What do you think? Arzu told me you were somehow involved earlier. Do you think, there is a way to do something? Arzu will cry for hours, days, weeks, when it stops. I won't be at home then. 

Miss Ann Bazman

We "could" hack all the tools, but no, that wouldn't solve anything. Rather, I'd want a new MxO to be made because honestly, people would SO play it, especially the old MxO players (SOE keep out of this one then ok?).

Hey Ann! Great to see you back =) I think that SOE will keep the code locked away in a basement somewhere, else they'll just delete it as the game goes down, bad news indeed.
