Game Speed

[Dasha]

Hi, 

Sorry for asking so many questions. But I've come back on the "true" Red Alert experience after having played mostly on OpenRA and finally decided to abandon it.

I even created maps for it.

I might try to recreate them for RA.

My questions are related to the game speed. In CnCNet client, it goes from 1 to 7 and it matches with the speed slider in the options. I've also read that in fact it sets the actual fps. 

Question 1 - Speed - FPS

I could find a definitive answer but I understood that 

7 = no cap 

6 = 60 fps capped 

What are the other values ? 

Question 2 - Default 

What is the default in Single Player Campaign ? 

Question 3 - Other games

Are the answers to these 2 questions also true for the other games ? 

- TD 

- RA2 / YR

- TS

D.

I would guess Default Speed (3) is 30 FPS,  Speed 4 is 45 FPS. I think Speed 7 is now cap at 300 FPS via the ddraw.dll and ddraw.ini settings.

I guess you mean 4 is 30 and 5 is 45 as 6 is 60 fps.

Or maybe I'm completely off.

If 3 (one below the middle) is the default, I really think it's less than 30. 

[EDIT] I've just tested a fresh install and 5 (out of 7) is the default. 5 means "fast".
