Low/High Graphics CFGs

[Scarhand]

Make sure you first back up your settings with "/writeconfig mycfg.cfg" in your console. Paste this into a cfg and exec it, for very low graphics. This can improve FPS, if you can stand the graphics. You can also try pieces of this cfg, if you don't like some of the other settings, just back up your settings first. They are written in Notepad, size 14 font, Times New Roman.

// You can use fastest if you want instead of fast.

Here is also a high graphics cfg, if you want ET to look good. Beware, it will eat up your FPS.
