basically,you have two choices.the fastest way how to run mohaa is wickedgl (with "compress all" enabled),but there will be few graphics glitches (blocky smokepuffs for example).mesafx will run without errors,but slower..

I prefer using mesafx @ 1024x768 resolution, 32 bit colour, 16 bit textures with everything else maxed which gives me great gaming fps (30 - 60).

Note: For me anyway 32 bit textures kills the framerate in some area's of the game sending fps into low 20's [}:)]

Texture compression.
16 bit textures are advisable 'cause they look the same as 32 bit and perform much better!

I use in 16 bit, and its looking like 32. I dont try on 32 bit, because the V5 dont like this color mode..
