Yeah this is vague. It's like going to the doctor and telling him your body hurts. Can you be more specific? What kind of PC do you have? RAM, Processor, Video card, etc...

tip:
1)clean your computer, check for virus, malware, cookies, and all that stuff.
2)turn all settings to the bare minimum
3)one by one, go turning the settings up a notch and tests it's performance.
4)stay where you feel your pc can handle it fine.

XI is an old game, so older machines can run it decently.

Thank's for the help my PC is old, and failing it's a Dell Inspiron 1501 laptop, I've done clean ups, java updates, windows updates, and my frame rate doubled to 16 fps. Now at the moment all I can improve is the mip mapping, and stuff within Windower's settings.



Thanks

Also any suggestions for UI Scale, Bump Mapping, Super Sampling, Gamma, and advanced log settings?
