I have beenm experimenting with Roblox's settings and I have found a great way to make Roblox look brilliant and fast, even if you have a slow connection like me. You can use common sense to find out how high you need to set your graphics. Here is what I have done:

Roblox Studio>Tools>Settings>OK to dialog>Network>
In Network
DataSendRate = 90
IsThrottledBy... = ticked (on both options)
NetworkOwnerRate = 29
RecieveRate = 100 (I don't know if this is default already)
TouchSendRate = 29

And this is the settings under the option called Rendering.
In Performance
IsSyncronisedWithPhysics = ticked

In Quality
Antialiasing = Off (you can set antialiasing in your graphics card's driver for better gameplay)

In Debug
Shadow = Off (if you have a great card, set this to All, but if you have a mid-range like me, having it off enables another awesome feature that darkens around corners)

This is just what worked for me, and I have to say, Roblox never looked good and felt so lag free.

I also unticked AllowSleep in Physics>Performance but I'm not sure if this made any difference.

It is the fastest Roblox has been for me in years. I went on a place with over 6000 bricks and there was no lag and my jump was not 5 seconds like usual.

Suggestion to change settings that Roblox tells you not to change :)

I'm not telling Roblox to change anything, I am suggesting an idea to players on how to make Roblox faster. Because under normal conditions, Roblox is, to be honest, the slowest online game I have played. But this makes it so much better.

Anyway, which other forum do I post this in? It won't get any attention in Roblox Talk because posts there are in the third page in 10 minutes.

Well, it should improve gameplay even for fast internets. My fastest upload speed ever has been 0.3 Mbps and that is when there has been nobody else using out network. I would say it was between .1 and .2 Mbps now.
*test*
48ms ping
3.51 Mbps download
0.02 Mbps upload

How slow is THAT?

:3 I'm supposed to get 6Mbps here but I get more like 4 when nobody is even using it. And my dad is always downloading stuff so I get even less speed. Roblox is pretty fast with these settings though.

I just built this computer. 3.3Ghz (overclockable) six-core processor with ATI Radeon HD 5770 graphics card and 1333Mhz 8GB RAM. On Windows Exoperience Index, my highest score is 7.8 for RAM. 7.3 for processor.

> Antialiasing set at 12X samples

.. AA settings go directly from 8 to 16. I've never seen one go to 12. What drivers are you using?
