Display mode

• Choice of resolution: provides a selection of different resolutions and numbers of colours.
• Colour antialiasing: selects antialiasing mode.

Options

In addition to the settings available in the game to help improve your performance, you can also try some of the following settings:

• No rendertarget: disables rendertarget mode, allowing a rendered 3D object to be displayed on the face of a polygon. Some video cards do not support this function.
• No rendertarget in menu: disables rendertarget mode in the menu only
• No shadow: removes shadows from the bikes completely.
• No video textures: removes animated textures (e.g.: large screen in the Stade de France)
• No T&L: forces part of the 3D rendering in software mode. In fact, some video cards do not support T&L (Transform and Lightning) mode properly.
• No guardbands: forces the program not to display anything outside the screen (clipping). Some cards have problems supporting guardband.
• No SIMD code (SSE & SSE2): disables SSE & SSE2 (Pentium® 3 and Pentium® 4) optimisation if you are experiencing autodetection problems.

Textures

• No evaluation by DirectDraw 7: disables more accurate evaluation of texture memory. May correct certain problems linked to particular video card drivers.
• Forced texture memory size: can be used to force the texture memory to a fixed size. In fact, some video cards do not handle video memory correctly. It can also be used to improve texture quality, but at the cost of performance.
