Overview

Locate the game folder

Create and modify the rule file

Additional parameters

Comments

Locate the game folder

Navigate to the game folder, generally located at:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\TRI

If that folder doesn't exist do this:

Open your library
Right click on the game.
Select "Properties" from the dropdown menu.
Select "Local Files".
Click on "Browse..."

Create and modify the rule file

Right click in an empty space of the folder you just opened and select "New → Text Document".
Rename it to ratkingsrules and keep the .txt extension, if you don't know what I'm talking about that's fine and move to the next point.
Open the file and add the following text lines:
inputaxessensitivity:50.0 inputaxesgravity:50.0
inputaxessensitivity corresponds to the acceleration of the player: a low value will take a while to get up to speed and feel sluggish, while a high number will instantly make you move at full speed as soon as you click the key to move.
inputaxesgravity corresponds to the deceleration of the player: low will make your movement feel slippery and floaty, while a high number will decelerate you almost instantly.

You can play with inputaxessensitivity and inputaxesgravity until you find a value that makes you happy; this should fix the sluggishness of the movements.

Additional parameters

You can add the following parameters to the configuration file

inputupdate: allows "perframe", "fixed", "ongui" and "late" as parameter.
playerinterpolation: allows "none", "interpolat" and "extrapolat" as parameter.
fixeddeltatime: allows decimal values as parameter, tinkering with this parameter should allow you to fix the stuttering; to get the smoothest result, you need to have the game output a constant frame rate and set this setting to match it. Either play with vsync enabled or use an external program (such as MSI Afterburner[www.msi.com]) to cap the framerate.

The fixeddeltatime value is how many seconds it will take between updates. So, to find what value you should set it to, divide 1 by the frame rate you will be playing at. I am playing at 60fps, so 1/60 = 0.01666

Here are some examples of settings you can try for different frame rates:
- 60fps - fixeddeltatime:0.01666
- 75fps - fixeddeltatime:0.01333
- 100fps - fixeddeltatime:0.01
- 120fps - fixeddeltatime:0.00833
- 144fps - fixeddeltatime:0.00694
