dragonfly November 25, 2007 Share dragonfly Member November 25, 2007 Tekimus Maximus: I think I have res set to 1680x1050, and screen size NOT 100, it's at 90. That made a huge difference for me too, even more than the resolution (???). If you're getting input lag with your mouse, you have the settings too high (as I did, and was getting 18fps!).

That made a huge difference for me too, even more than the resolution (???). If you're getting input lag with your mouse, you have the settings too high (as I did, and was getting 18fps!). Well, I retried ALL of Wentz's (a.k.a. MP...ftw was I thinking/drinking?) and now I am hitting 45 fps AVG and as high as 60 fps @ 1680 x 1050. Game looks weirder/plainer (nice words) and the sky will suddenly change shades lighter/darker...but once the action starts, 'tis cool. I had to turn details down to 2, but I think now I will turn them up to 3. Too bad this game still offers no in game options for AA and AF.

Wentz November 26, 2007 Share Wentz Member November 26, 2007 Tek its been months fix your freakin vent NOW noob I demand results immediately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tek-Almighty November 27, 2007 Share Tek-Almighty Member November 27, 2007 Sorry such a noob Wentz...I can HEAR you gloating just fine over Vent when you kill me, I just can't reply. I just noticed the following: When I take Wentz's advice and set those values to "false" in the .ini files, the game reverts my texture and world details to '1' FTW>>> I change them in game, but you have to restart to see effect, but then they are reset to 1 again. Anybody else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaDPaT November 27, 2007 Share MaDPaT Member November 27, 2007 I found the game ceiling is set at 63 fps. Unless you modify the ini files which could make it a little more unstable. I might do it since I have a good card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonfly November 27, 2007 Share dragonfly Member November 27, 2007 MP: I'd take vsync off in your ini (you can find it im sure) and bump up the ceiling fps to like 150. Tek: Not sure, never checked. Textures dont look SUPER pretty though, but meh, getting ok framerates. I dip down to 30-40 depending on map. Still better than 18, and it'll all change soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wentz November 27, 2007 Share Wentz Member November 27, 2007 I think bSmoothFrameRate=False uncaps fps Tek, yeah i play with the game uglied like that so I can shoot faces without having to worry about something pretty catching my eye. Reversing some of the settings (not sure which specifically) will fix your texture issues, told u to backup the ini bacon it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonfly November 27, 2007 Share dragonfly Member November 27, 2007 I thought that one was sort of like a vsync. I saw somewhere maxfps=60 or 63 or whatever. Just do a search for the number or soemthing in the ini till you find it. And with the lower res textures it is easier to see guys since they stick out more on the playing field.

Wentz November 27, 2007 Share Wentz Member November 27, 2007 what the heck is "sort of like a vsync" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonfly November 27, 2007 Share dragonfly Member November 27, 2007 smoothing the frame rate out... sorta like when you sync the gpu with your monitor refresh rate (vertical synchronization is it called?) so that you dont ever get tearing? Smoothing the frame rate out so you are getting closer to a constant average than 20, 40, 30, 50, 18, 45 fps all over the place. That's what my guess was anyway.

X-Razer November 27, 2007 Share X-Razer Member November 27, 2007 I guess some of you are getting the flashes and stuff like me. It sux. I didn't try Wentz suggestion yet... maybe later. I sure hope they release a patch to fix the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure hope they release a patch to fix the issue. I wonder how many of the ppl having this flashing happen are Vista users? Earlier when I changed some of the values in the system and game files, I noticed that the sky would change from light to darker grey, but that not really a consistent/annoying problem. meh... I wish you luck! Oh, and JOIN GC X! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flitterkill November 28, 2007 Share Flitterkill GC Board Member November 28, 2007 I have Vista (and the 169.9 drivers) - no worries here now. FYI - everyone pls do not join server via the open command on the drop down console. See new topic. -Fk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flitterkill November 28, 2007 Share Flitterkill GC Board Member November 28, 2007 FWIW I just got the screen crap again. It only happened after a lot of stuff happened on screen at once (like a ton of people dieing right in front of me) I think I need to tweak the ini to turn all that stuff off (still stock out of the box) Nice to see it full u most of the evening though! Just go with GC in the tag box, the brackets look dumb -Fk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushwack November 28, 2007 Share bushwack Member November 28, 2007 I knew I was buying the game to early. Hmmm I still haven't received it though, oh well. Watch the t-shirt that's coming with the game will have a patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonfly November 28, 2007 Share dragonfly Member November 28, 2007 LOL Bush, you bought it because you feel left out of the loop of cool kids! C'mon, admit it... You did the right thing, dont worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonfly November 29, 2007 Share dragonfly Member November 29, 2007 MUUUCH better. 1920x1200 w/ texture setting at 4, world detail to 1 and I get 50+fps in warfare maps with 20+people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tek-Almighty December 9, 2007 Share Tek-Almighty Member December 9, 2007 MUUUCH better. 1920x1200 w/ texture setting at 4, world detail to 1 and I get 50+fps in warfare maps with 20+people. Hmmm...my improvements are disappearing. I was on a pub server last night with Textures @3 and world @2...the server was full (24 ppl). Map was downtown. My FPS with my new 8800GT were consistently in the 20s!!!! FTW. I checked ping and it was ok...I mean, that is what I was getting with my 7900GT... So I think ok...bad GPU, need to replace. I spend the next hour benching it out again, stressing it with Crysis and 3D mark...but Nope...card is like butter. So I reset all the graphics stuff in the .ini files (previously mentioned) so now I'm playing at 1 settings again... FTW...I will try another loaded server again today to see...

dragonfly December 9, 2007 Share dragonfly Member December 9, 2007 (edited) IDK man, I'm a steady 60 now with some more tweaking, and I left the HDR on for now too (I got used to it, and players actually "glow" more at a distance I find). My proc is also set to 2.4 right now, with no OC at all. I'm not sure what's lagging you so bad tek. I turned a couple things off. I think it was motion blur and DEFINITELY bshowdamage=false. FYI for you guys with children around, you can apparently turn off the language (ie turn on a language filter) for the game. I saw the line that's defaulted to false, and if you just look around you can find it too. Tek, which driver are you using? I'm 169.09... I think Flitter was using 169.12?
