FPS saver macro for Cataclysm

Testing this out now; in Dalaran it seems to add 1.5 seconds to my swap speed.

Depending on your configuration (in particular video card, I guess), you might want to adjust some of your high settings.

/console shadowMode 1
/console waterDetail 3
/console sunShafts 2
... are the ones having the most effect on my system (even though there is not much water in Dalaran, so it should not have an effect). Try ShadowMode 0, it should make quite a big difference.

I'll try that..
Using a GTX275 for a 2560x1600 screen, so lower settings should help some.

Usually play with view distance and spell effects maximized, everything else down rather low.
And then limit main screen FPS to 60 and slaves to 20 FPS.

I've lowered most of the settings, for the main screen.
But now dynamically have maximum view distance on the active toon.
And much lower view distance on the slaves (minimal).

Overall, my graphics are a bit higher on the main, then before.
And I can switch from any toon, to any other and retain the higher settings.
Also the switch speed is instant, as before.

Still tinkering around, but am currently using (as my Higher Settings):
/console farclip 1250
/console groundEffectDensity 64
/console groundEffectDistance 260
/console environmentDetail 40
/console particleDensity 100
/console shadowMode 0
/console waterDetail 0
/console reflectionMode 0
/console sunShafts 0
/console basemip 1
/console terrainMipLevel 1
/console projectedTextures 0
/console weatherDensity 0
/console componentTextureLevel 2
/console textureFilteringMode 1
/console Sound_EnableAllSound 1

Ualaa a bit more detailed for those of us new to ISboxer-I want to "tweak" my settings to run 5 accounts from from one computer until I can get funds to upgrade "main" computer-have been running two computers for now. Can you "walk us through" exactly where and what t do?
