55~ FPS on a Potato!

[CMDR Cosmic Spacehead]

That's right. I managed to get my Potato laptop up to 55 fps.

Do you own a potato? You can do it too.
Just set everything to as low as possible, and supersampling to 0.5.
It's amazing, no downsides at all*!

*Some fuzzyness may occur.

Check this out!

Woooahh, 57FPS!
What does that say..? How far is it?
I don't know!

Woooahh, I'm able to Interdict things!
God knows what it is! Is it wanted or hostile? Who cares! 47fps!

Coming in to dock! 35FPS, that's better than my PC!
What did the station say? Where's the entrance...?

I'm in! 19fps. inside!
Which is my pad...?



I have eye strain now.

Wow, incredible. I'll try it, too [big grin]

My daughter will be attempting this on a potato laptop in a few weeks, so that is good to know.

 

[Cupsuki]

My eyes!! They burn just by watching at those pictures

If you were to fry a Potato laptop will the chips taste nice?

 

[Asp Explorer]

That is an overpowered potato.

When I get home, I'll unleash the almighty power of a real potato

Specs'?

 

[Cosmos]

what are the potato's specs?

 

[Marklar_]

LOL, that is exactly what this game looks like in a Rift DK2 with settings turned down

 

[Aashenfox]

Specs'?

Half peeled, 3 black eyes, a couple of green roots and half a potato bug (result of the incomplete peeling job).

Can't you at least afford an upgrade to a yam?

I guess an 80s wireframe mode would benefit such users
(But the easiest, least effort way to implement it would, counter-intuitively, require a more modern graphics card than they probably have…)

So it looks like 2d VR. Anyone playing VR shouldn't have any problem adjusting.

The Potato runs Horizons better than an Apple.

An Acer Aspire 5740G. Only difference is mine has a 120Gb SSD now.
And 1 speaker.
And the screen is stuck at about 25% brightness. Lol

Glorious!

Now you know why early VR adopters complained about being unable to read anything Oh that takes me back.

FWIW, VR is much better now, it's not an issue anymore.
