Age Old ?

[{TTS}DRAKO]

FPS we have all tried to perfect this with getting as many as we can, but I have an issue.

 

I run a 5900 ultra nvidia card and i have just noticed after player since sof1 that my FPS peaks out at 59/60 no matter the server or the map, never goes higher or lower just toggles back and forth 59/60.

 

I have tried the screen res and everything, maxfps is set to 0 and virtcal sync is off.

 

Im at a loss any ideas?

vertical sync mate :D  turn it off... 

LOL .... I think he said Sync was OFF... but I have to agree with Johnny check to make sure your vertical sync is off in bothe video settings on card and video settings in the game menu

[{TTS}DRAKO]

yes its off on the video card. but I forgot all about the ingame setting SOB!! i spent for ever trying to figure this out, owell i learned some cool stuff while researching thow LOL.

 

Ill try the ingame setting when i get home to see what happens.

beware: some servers kick for com_maxfps 0

[{TTS}DRAKO]

ya i have seen that.

[Johnny|sF]

hehe, I know he said that he turned the vert. sync to 0 but I just said it again since vert. sync is the only setting that limits your fps to a certain fps.

[priestx.twol]

Drako, try setting com_maxfps 500 instead of 0.

 

run

 

r_picmip 0

/vid_restart

 

for good texturing.

I'm not familiar with the nvidia cards....but be careful capping the fps at 500 with the upper end cards. I know with the 9800xt, we have to cap the fps at 300. If we don't, they will hit 500, and that'll lock up the game.

I got Nvidia GeForce 6800GT, and I often hit 500 fps with no problem.

 

Hell, one member of AF showed his screenshot of his 2,000 FPS at highest quality!

highest quality... LOL! I can tell by the detailed ground and the size of the screenshot. Is that lag right there? Hmmm, he seems to fly in a wall... the groundline looks straight 2 right... :P nah, that aint highest graphics.

Plus the game is pushing 2 years.... It is only going to look so good.

 

But gl with trying to make it look better!

[{TTS}DRAKO]

thanks for the help guys but the v-sync in game setting was on, that fixed it,

 

its staying around 350 now allote higher in some other maps but its better then 60 lol, and if you set (com_maxfps +) you will get pretty good results also.

 

I didn't think it would get that high with the settings I run but that fps would double i bet if i turned everything down lol.

lol i see so many players trying to show off with these style screenshots. Any1 with a decent-ish gfx card can hit those fps when they go into spec and fly into the sky. :lol:

I don't know why you need more than 250fps personally. I can run mine set to max 500fps and play fine but pefer to use max 250fps.

i was in a map last night pulling 600 fps and oh man does it lag out and lock up, i had to set it to 300.

[Johnny|sF]

I play fine with 80 fps.

[{TTS}DRAKO]

ya i locked mine at 250, only get that in a few maps it stays at 125 or so for he most part.
