I get 12-14 frame per second. I've been told that this
is about all I can expect from the 32 MB card.

Sounds about right. The s3tc patch improves things a bit in areas where there are lots of textures (like near the carrier), but you're definitely near the limits of that card.

With the s3tc patch I most often got 15 - 25 fps[0] at 1024x768 with my old GeForce2 400MX / 32MB card. When the card ran out of texture memory I got about ~1-2 fps at most, but that only happened before the patch.

I you aren't alread using --disable-enhanced-lighting
I think it might give you some additional fps.

[0] At KSFO. With little on-screen it could go to 40 - 50 fps, even.

Cheers,

Anders
