In my case I resorted to balanced 3D model quality in order to get a really smooth gameplay with best texture quality and 16xCSAA in the Nvidia control panel. This is not so with 3D model quality setting where FPS drop accordingly the higher you set it (as one would normally expect). Texture quality profits from better and best settings where there are notably much more FPS's then if you set it to for example improved. In-game antialiasing must be set to on - if it is set to off I get no antialiasing in the game no matter if I set nvidia control panel to override any in-game antaliasing setting. So you get the most FPS with both texture and models to better?

What about the in game AA setting? On or off? Now go to the folder where you have FRAPS installed and find the Benchmarks folder - in it you get a report looking like this: When the turn ends press F11 again - you can also set up FRAPS that it only monitors your frame rates for 1 minute which is more preferable, so that you don't have to press F11 again when the wego turn ends. Lock-view one of your chosen units (preferably a moving vehicle) hitting the Tab, press play button and at the same time also press F11 to have the FRAPS start monitoring your FPS. To have consistent results you can load any of your WEGO save game replay.

In order to see actual FPS in game install free program called FRAPS (google search for it - it comes with no spam). Please do report here if you checked it out. If you do I'm glad I helped you get a better performance out of your machine in this game. I'm interested to learn if any other owners of Nvidia GPU would get the same surprising result. I have Geforce 550Ti MSI GPU with the (at the moment of this writing) latest 314.07 WHQL Drivers. Very different things, as obviously we can't change any of that, AND it's not necessarily long-term relevant to your (or others', if they see your results and buy your card) card's performance with CM. Panel settings have nothing to do with Combat Mission - you're just forcing your card to use those settings while rendering Combat Mission.

So when using different control panel settings you're really measuring card and driver performance more than Combat Mission performance (case in point, Hister's 16xCSAA performance, which is entirely down to his drivers and has nothing to do with anything CM is doing).

Performance of control panel settings will change, irrespective of Combat Mission, with new driver releases. It looks like higher-level CSAA is probably the most heavily optimized path for your card. We don't directly affect or support any of this (nor do we need to), it's down to how your drivers interact with OpenGL. Right now you're likely looking at differences in driver optimization.
