Texture Filters - change if you're bored.
Backbuffer Count - change if you're really bored
- Really helpful manual, don't you think? I am not bored, but I want to make the game run as smoothly as possible. Since I have such an old computer, what would be the best values for these? What do these even do?

If you have plenty of Video Memmory, more backbuffers will produce smoother graphics...but if you don't have the memmory don't bother.
The texture filters just change how nice the textures look.
For best fps on an old PC choose 1 BackBuffer + Linear filter ( none is faster but sucks). Also turn off Anti Aliasing.

I guess my 400 mhz pc is new because it runs the same no matter the backbuffer number used.

G0t valu3? :P
I have no idea what the backbuffer thing does, but I guess texture filters have to do with the textures on the ground... I guess turning them off would do something. XDE<

Texture Filters - turn off for best performance.
Backbuffer Count - I don't really know, play around with the settings, that's why I wrote to change it if you are bored - check how it affectes the framerate.

It probably is some option provided by DirectX when initializing it and Michal just put it in the Soldat options..
