With the upcoming patch, Update 58 Hotfix 1, we will be making available to non admins the ability to work around the Indoor Framerate issue plagueing the Nvidia 8xxx series video cards.

The following settings can be used to turn off model lighting (which makes the performance issue go away) and readd some but not full lighting back to them.

Create a text file using your perfered text editor. (Notepad will work)

Rename the file useropts.cfg (you will still be able to open the file with your text editor however)

Copy the following into the file and save it. If you already use this file for other things add these parameters (You might check to see if you already have them someone in your useropts however this is probably only an issue for advanced video users).

modellighting_enable = 0
modellighting_ambadd_r = 0.33
modellighting_ambadd_g = 0.33
modellighting_ambadd_b = 0.33

Save the file and place it into your main install folder "usually" located at ...\monolith productions\Matrix Online\

This file will be read and these setting loaded each time the game is ran.

Changing these setting in this file while the game is running will not do anything.

Note: Anyone with modellighting_enabled = 1 (the default) set may notice a slight increase is cpu usage for the game. This may effect lower performance clients meaning if you are close to the minimum spec for the game it may adversly effect you..
