To customize the game for a specific system, you can customize the game configuration file. To do this, open the GCEngine.ini file, which
is in
C: \ Users \ … \ My documents \ My Games \ HOMEFRONT \ GCGame \ Config \ (Win Vista \ 7)
C: \ Documents and Settings \ … \ My documents \ My Games \ HOMEFRONT \ GCGame \ Config \ (Win XP)
and adjust some of the most important parameters in terms of optimization, which I will try to describe. If after the = sign nothing is written, then in your file there you need to register either TRUE (enabled) or FALSE (disabled), for optimization it is better to disable.
