This topic is about increasing your FPS. Most low FPS is caused by "gameguard"[Ijji Ftl] & bad computers and this is aimed to tackle that problem.

[RCFG] - Archetype's recommended config.xml
If you care about good graphics in gunz this is not for you.
With this config.xml made by me personally, IJJI GunZ - even with gamguard - can run smoothly on, for example, my crappy 6 year old dell pc! I play with a (somewhat) consistent 50 FPS and manage to maintain a reputation as one of the top players - so you should be able too as well if your skill is great enough!
Instructions:
1) Locate C:ijjiENGLISHGunz and open the "config.xml" file in notepad. Copy and paste this over the existing part in your config.xml file:
Code
<VIDEO>
<WIDTH>640</WIDTH>
<HEIGHT>480</HEIGHT>
<COLORBITS>8</COLORBITS>
<GAMMA>255</GAMMA>
<FULLSCREEN>TRUE</FULLSCREEN>
<REFLECTION>false</REFLECTION>
<LIGHTMAP>false</LIGHTMAP>
<DYNAMICLIGHT>false</DYNAMICLIGHT>
<SHADER>false</SHADER>
<CHARACTORTEXTURELEVEL>2</CHARACTORTEXTURELEVEL>
<MAPTEXTURELEVEL>8</MAPTEXTURELEVEL>
<EFFECTLEVEL>0</EFFECTLEVEL>
<TEXTUREFORMAT>8</TEXTUREFORMAT>
<NHARDWARETNL>false</NHARDWARETNL>
</VIDEO>
2) Run GunZ as usual.
Notes:
o If you attempt to change ANY options in-game, it will mess up your config.xml - see [ECFG] to learn how to change your options through config.xml

CHANGING THE RESOLUTION
if you would like to increase your resolution because you dont experience fps lag in 600x480 and wish to try a higher one, or if you simply dont like how the text squashes together, you can increase it like so...
just copy + paste the codes over the appropriate part in config.xml
800x640 resolution (id recommend trying this first):
Code
<WIDTH>800</WIDTH>
<HEIGHT>600</HEIGHT>
if that doesnt effect your fps you could try going higher to 1024x768:
Code
<WIDTH>1024</WIDTH>
<HEIGHT>768</HEIGHT>
you can go as low as 400x300 resolution and as high as your monitor can handle, play around with it if you want to find the right one for you - but the numbers should remain at a 4:3 ratio otherwise it will cause problems

Panichira
Instructions:
1) Run Panchira's (from any location).
