Medal of Honor 2010 Graphics and Performance Tweaks
Anti-Aliasing (MSAA)
The higher you set this, the more resources the game will consume. So set it low, if you want to increase the performance of your machine.
Best Performance: 0 (1x)
Best Quality: 3 (4x)
Bloom
Effect that tries to mimic the way human eye sees a bright object right after seeing a dark object. More of an eye candy, so turn it off.
Best Performance: false (off)
Best Quality: true (on)
DirectX Mode (DxVersion)
If you are on Windows 7/Vista, you may opt to run the game in DirectX 9 at the expense of graphics and eye candy you get while running the game on DirectX 10. One major disadvantage of running the game on DirectX 9 is that you may experience flickering textures and AA won’t work.
Best Performance: 9
Default: auto
Horizontal Based Ambient Occlusion (HSAO)
Dense shadows that add depth to objects, but can negatively impact performance.
Best Performance: false (off)
Best Quality: true (on)
Shadows
Best Performance: medium or low
Best Quality: high
Undergrowth
Quality of the grass on the ground. Turning it off, gives a massive performance boast.
Best Performance: medium or low
Best Quality: high
VSync
Syncs the games FPS to the refresh rate of your monitor to eliminate “tearing”. People with Average PC’s shouldn’t even think of turning it on, “Always off”. Infact, only turn it on if you can maintain 60+ FPS in the game.
Available settings: on, off
Anisotropic Filtering (Aniso)
Quality of textures at a distance. Not noticeable performance boast, but rendering these textures at distance uses memory, so keep it low if you have low RAM.
Detail
Available settings: low, medium, high
Effects
Quality of particle effects.
Available settings: low, medium, high
Overgrowth
Amount of grass that comes out of the ground.
Available settings: low, medium, high
Soldiers
Level of detail on Players.
Available settings: low, medium, high
StaticObjects
Quality of various objects (barrels, rocks, signs, etc.)
Available settings: low, medium, high

I dont see a settings.ini file in that folder in windows 7 X64.
Sorry missed to add “Multiplayer” folder in location. All the tweaks up there apply for frostbite engine which dictates the multiplayer side of things. As for singleplayer, it is developed on modified Unreal Engine 3, I am still experimenting with that.
Waiting for singleplayer tweaks.
I dont have a settings.ini file in any of the medal of honour folders. I have all file extensions shown and all hidden files shown. No matter where I look I cant find a settings.ini file. Not even in the multiplayer folder or the User/[My name]/ My Documents/Medal Of Honour/ There are three folders in there but no settings ini in any of those folders.
Run medal of honor multiplayer exe and change any settings, save and close. Now check again and you will find it. Now it should be in
*EA Games/Medal of Honor/*, I have it in there. Multiplayer folder includes 3 files Settings.ini and GameSettings.ini also gamesettings.bin. I have three of these….
For single player configurations I believe they will be found here, only after starting singleplayer will it show this fold.
C:\Users\*your name*\Documents\EA Games\Medal of Honor\Config
this folder can also be found within in the games install directory for me it is
C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Medal of Honor\Engine\Config
for anyone willing to experiment their you go. I am not claiming I know how to manipulate all of the settings in these .ini configuration scripts but some things are self explanitory
ex. MouseSensitivity=35.000000
ex. bEnableMouseSmoothing=true
[...] While playing if you come across Errors, Freezes or Crashes, you can refer to our Medal of Honor 2010 Troubleshooting Guide. If you want to tweak the game for performance or better graphics, you can refer to our Medal of Honor 2010 Tweak Guide. [...]
I think I figured out a FOV fix for SP:
Go to C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Medal of Honor\Engine\Config\
Open BaseEngine.ini it with notepad, search for [SystemSettings]
Make a new line under that heading and paste FOVAngle=90.000000 (or whatever value you chose)
Save the file. My graphics setting were set really low after I made this change, so you’ll just have to change them back once you’re in-game.
Spread the word
Thanks hubb will add your comment as part of the article soon
If you find anything else, you know what to do
any updates about single player tweaks?
it’s very laggy when i’m playing.
AMD Athlon X2 Dual Core 4800+ 2,5 Ghz
RAM PC 5300 DDR2 3 GB
VGA Geforce 9500 GT 512 DDR3
“Unlike Battlefield Bad Company 2, Medal of Honor 2010 gives you option to change your Field of View (FOV)” u can in bf google it
Yeah, I can, I have written over it. But, the option is not available by default, and have to add. While in Medal of Honor, it is available by default.
Win 7 Ult. x64
AMD Phenom x4 9750 2.4 ghz
8 GB DDR2 pc2-6400 (400mhz) [qimonda manufacturer]
Geforce GT 220 1 gb
When i play in the lowest resolution and lowest settings I believe it’s “running” to fast, tried decreasing aim sens didn’t help. As i pushed the limits and would flow smooth then stutter when the action kicks up.
Men you have a nice Spec try to upgrade those GT220 to GTX260 or gtx460 that will be nice
I tried everything the trouble shooting guide says. ( fullscreen, direct x etc. )But still i get CTD’s all the time. EA logo shows and then back to windows :s.
After a reinstall of the game I can play for 1 or 2 days before the problem occurs again. I really don’t know what to do anymore and I am hoping that someone can help me out.
Grtz.
