{TTS}DRAKO Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 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? cpu-3.4 pen ram-2gig pc3200 PS- 420 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny|sF Posted: Mon Sep 20, 2004 2:10 am Post subject: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
{TTS}DRAKO Posted September 20, 2004 Author Share Posted September 20, 2004 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.

Scarface Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 beware: some servers kick for com_maxfps 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
{TTS}DRAKO Posted September 20, 2004 Author Share Posted September 20, 2004 ya i have seen that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny|sF Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
priestx.twol Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 Drako, try setting com_maxfps 500 instead of 0. run r_picmip 0 /vid_restart for good texturing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MA-Chick{EFK} Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GamingFox AdminFed Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 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! http://theafh.low-ping.com/user/416/files/2000fps.bmp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny|sF Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-osg-shaggy Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 Plus the game is pushing 2 years.... It is only going to look so good. But gl with trying to make it look better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
{TTS}DRAKO Posted September 21, 2004 Author Share Posted September 21, 2004 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shock Posted September 21, 2004 Share Posted September 21, 2004 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! http://theafh.low-ping.com/user/416/files/2000fps.bmp 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: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
