Launcher window for setting up various options and preferences.
This Launcher appears after you double click on the
Tony Hawk’s
Underground 2
executable (.exe file).
LAUNCHER TAB
•
Screen Resolution Settings
To play
Tony Hawk’s Underground 2
in a specific screen resolution,
select the most appropriate screen resolution. If game performance
is poor,try setting your screen resolution to a lo wer value.
•
Miscellaneous Options
Full Screen Anti-Aliasing—otherwise known as FSAA—reduces the
amount of jagged edges on all model surfaces, thus increasing visual
quality.Please note tha t this option can cause performance issues on
low-end systems.
3
•
High Quality Shadows
Enabling High Quality Shadows will provide more detailed shadows
under all player models. Please note that this option can cause
performance issues on low-end systems.
•
Enable Distance Clipping
For low-end systems that still have performance and frame rate
issues, this option is very useful. Distance Clipping will cease to
render objects that are too far away from the player’s current
position, thus improving frame rate.

Enable Fog (Must have distance clipping enabled)
If Distance Clipping has not improved the frame rate enough, enabling
Fog can give another boost to performance by decreasing the draw
distance of objects and characters.

10
Scoring Tips
• Combine grab and flip tricks while catching air for higher scores.
• You can continue your combo moves using reverts and manuals.
Manuals keep your combo going across flatland ground sections.
Reverts keep your combo going from big air tricks off ramps.
• During a run (unless in a free skate session), every time you repeat
a trick, the trick’s point value decreases.To get a high score,you’re
going to have to think about your “line”and mix up the tricks
you perform.
• Switch tricks are worth more and devalue separately from
regular tricks.
• Try to trick into and out of every grind.
• Use special tricks for huge scores.
• Spinning (540°, 720°) while in the air performing tricks nets bigger
scores. Press Key Pad 7 or Key Pad 9 to spin around faster.
• Every trick in a combo adds to your score multiplier.
• Nollie tricks score more points than regular ollie tricks.
• Trick across gaps (the blue text transfers) to maximize your combos.
• When landing from a quarterpipe,revert then manual to continue
your combo.
• You can combo every type of trick—lip tricks, manuals, vert tricks,
grinds, etc.—and use revert to link them together.There are also
spine transfers and skitching—and you can link those in your
combos, too!

Special Meter and Special Tricks
As you score points in
Tony

, your
Special Meter (the meter in the
top left of the screen) fills up.
When the meter is glowing and
pulsing in color,your skater’s
speed increases and you can
perform special tricks that you
normally cannot.The Special
Meter increases as you perform
tricks, so you’ll be able to bust
some special tricks in the middle of your first combo. By default, you start
with 4 special tricks.You can earn extra special trick slots by completing
special tasks in Story Mode. Special tricks are performed using multiple
direction presses on the directional keys with the corresponding Grab, Flip
or Grind keys.Try playing through Story Mode to earn more special tricks.
