[edit] Introduction
TRS2019 provides a huge range of graphical and performance based options to allow users to customise their experience based upon their hardware configuration and personal game preferences.
When first starting up TRS19, a Performance Configurator screen appears. Simply select the option that most closely matches your hardware configuration.
Low setting means that graphics settings are low, and performance is high.
Ultra setting means that graphics settings are at their highest, and performance is lower.
If you are unsure of your hardware configuration, following are some options you can try.
[edit] Finding Your PC Specifications
1. Run the Windows program DxDiag.exe
2. Your CPU information shows on the first tab under "Processor"
3. Your GPU information shows on the 2nd tab under "Chip Type"
4. You can check your graphics card ranking on this page:
5. Click on the Graphics Cards Heading and type in your card shown in DxDiag then compare to the cards shown in the Configurator.
[edit] PC - Run UserBenchmark Test
Find out your Userbenchmark Ratings score by running this short test then compare your score to the table below.
[edit] Userbenchmark Gaming Ratings:
- Low Settings = 18% to 40%
- All graphical setting are set to low/off, and in-game sliders adjusted based upon the route
- Medium Settings = 40% to 80%

- High Settings = 80% to 110%
- Recommended to turn TurfFX to ON and Shadows On.
- Ultra Settings = 110% and up
- All graphical settings can be set to max, but certain routes will require a reduction in draw distance.
[edit] Compare Graphical Settings
We have prepared an article that illustrates our suggested graphical settings for various different hardware specification. http://www.trainzportal.com/blog/view/trs2019-hardware-requirements
