Okay, me again!
I recorded three demo loops to really try and get some valid results (no mercs/monkeys and minimum birdage).
One was an exterior mplevel, one a nighttime mp level and the last an interior on the training level (trying to get dynamic lights involved).
Only done 60.72 and 61.11 drivers so far; I'll try and add 56.72 when I get a chance (this takes ages to do). I'll also try and put the results in graphs soon to make comparisons easier...
Exterior Level
Max Detail Level (1024*768):
56.72 =
60.72 = 75.83
61.11 = 77.69
Max Detail Level (1280*1024):
56.72 =
60.72 = 56.84
61.11 = 56.84
Max Detail Level (1600*1200):
56.72 =
60.72 = 40.66
61.11 = 40.73
Min Detail Level (1024*768):
56.72 =
60.72 = 125.55
61.11 = 122.35
Min Detail Level (1280*1024):
56.72 =
60.72 = 109.16
61.11 = 108.06
Min Detail Level (1600*1200):

60.72 = 81.51
61.11 = 81.42
Night Level
Max Detail Level (1024*768):
56.72 =
60.72 = 67.16
61.11 = 66.94
Max Detail Level (1280*1024):
56.72 =
60.72 = 51.60
61.11 = 51.75
Max Detail Level (1600*1200):
56.72 =
60.72 = 37.09
61.11 = 37.12
Min Detail Level (1024*768):
56.72 =
60.72 = 108.71
61.11 = 107.18
Min Detail Level (1280*1024):
56.72 =
60.72 = 107.88
61.11 = 105.96
Min Detail Level (1600*1200):
56.72 =
60.72 = 91.50
61.11 = 91.03
Interior Level
Max Detail Level (1024*768):
56.72 =
60.72 = 75.96
61.11 = 75.89
Max Detail Level (1280*1024):
56.72 =
60.72 = 49.71
61.11 = 49.73
Max Detail Level (1600*1200):
56.72 =
60.72 = 34.49
61.11 = 34.51
Min Detail Level (1024*768):
56.72 =
60.72 = 170.51
61.11 = 169.46
Min Detail Level (1280*1024):
56.72 =
60.72 = 169.08
61.11 = 167.71
Min Detail Level (1600*1200):
56.72 =
60.72 = 164.47
61.11 = 163.42
So (if you've read this far down...) at least on my rig there's nothing to be gained from using 61.11, only a massive amount of IQ to be lost.
60.72 looks about the best at the moment
