I don't know why ........ but to prevent it, just make the file 'read only'

the values remain now, but the mirrors are still lowres!

Sorry, but I don't know why you have low res mirrors

This is my one, and I've never had a mirror issue :-

in graphic options was i think one thing you can make higher and somehow the mirrors are getting better i had this some sort of thing in F1 2013 ^^

but i do not know what it was

i had testet all in game-graphic options but nothing. Can i do anything in system folder?

Now it works great with <mirrors enabled="true" forceBilinear="true" width="4096" height="1700" car_maxlod="99" car_culldist="9900.0" />! The problem was the hardwaresetting_options file in the system folder!!
