-- glest.ini: all parameters
-
-.SH VIDEO CARD HINTS
-.TP
-.B Auto config.
-.br
-The first time you run the game it will try to detect the graphic settings most
-suitable for your video card. It's highly recommended that you don't change them
-unless you really know what you are doing. If you change the settings and you
-want to reset to the recommended ones, you can do it by using the auto config
-button in the in-game config menu.
-.TP
-.B Required card features.
-.br
-The game requires either OpenGL 1.4 or OpenGL 1.3 plus the GL_ARB_env_crossbar
-extesion. Most video cards with recent drivers support this features. You can
-bypass the feature check by replacing the "CheckGlCaps=1" line in glest.ini by
-"CheckGlCaps=0", but the game may crash or have graphics errors.
-.TP
-.B ATI card problems.
-.br
-It seems to be bug in some ATI OpenGL drivers that makes the game crash with
-certain card/driver configurations when using more than 1 light. Auto config will
-detect this issue and turn off all secondary lights when it detects an ATI card.
-If you still want to try running the game using more than 1 light you can change
-this setting in the in-game config menu.
-.TP
-.B Shadows.
-.br
-The game features real-time shadows using different algorithms. 1) Projected: Fast
-shadows but they provide unit over terrain shadows only, and can produce incorrect
-shadows in some circumstances. 2) Shadow mapping: Slow shadows but they are
-always correct and provide everything over everything shadows. In ATI cards they
-look aliased. Both types of shadows require a video card with 3 texture unit
-support. Auto config will set the most suitable shadow mode for your video card.
-.TP
-.B 3D textures
-.br
-The game uses 3D textures for some effects like animated water. Some old video cards
-(ie: GeForceMX) don't support this feature by hardware and the game runs really
-slow when the camera is near a river. Auto config will detect this and disable
-3D textures when needed.
