You should at least get faster loading times.

Thanks to scripts.dll they already are very fast.

I get 700+ fps when on the loading screen and 100+ fps on the menus. There isn't much difference when on Online play. Its an old Mobility Radeon 9200, so I can't squeeze too much out of it.

Remember though, this patch is still in its early stages of developement considering it is fairly new. Over time I sure the bugs will get worked out.

That would be a good idea. It would benefit not only members of this forum who don't visit often, (so may never see this topic), and it would benefit new members as well.

Certainly looks nicer, no real fps change (still a steady 75)
|
it's because you have vsync enabled.
|
You are so right, my FPS now is up to 120...

I tested this patch out for a bit on my XFX GeForce FX5200. With Anti Aliasing 4x and Antistropic Filtering 8x enabled I got 130 FPS.
Before I installed the patch I used to only get 80 FPS with Anti Aliasing and Antistropic Filtering disabled.

OMFG (I must write it this time)=
I have an Intel Pentium4 with 2,4Ghz / 1GB real good GSkill Ram and the FX5200. And I want to know what kind of CPU do you use? The fps values you've posted are in some Areas of a Nvidia 6600GT!
-----------------------
To stop those questions about Videocards which are supporting DX9=
Nvidia= Geforce 5 (FX), Geforce 6 and Geforce 7 up to 7900GTX
ATI= Radeon 9000 series, all X000 series, all X1000series and higher up to X1900XTX (The Radeon 8500 does NOT support DX9), it supports DX8.1!)
So this means, the minimum Hardware is a Radeon 9200 or FX5200. Below, there is ZERO DirectX9 Hardware Support present.
And don't forget, Renegade is coded in DirectX, so a better CPU is more important than a better Videocard. A faster Videocard with more Speed is good for keeping your FPS constanly at the average Level when big rushes will come. A faster CPU will increase the average FPS...
On BF2 or just NFS, it's the same.
-----------------------
The news about this tool are going through many forums in Germany now since a member from UES posted them.
In my humble opinion, it only can raise the fps by tweaking the graphics driver. This is the same way the DNA- and Omegadrivers tweak the drivers.
www.omegadrivers.net -this will increase the FPS up to 70more (depending on the Videocard).
=========
@nopol10
You mean 700+ in the menu and 100+ ingame.  Ihave had an AMD 3200+, 1GB Corsair Ram and the Nvidia 6600GT. I got in the menu 500+ with the omegadriver and up to 120-130 ingame. I recommend everyone to use the Omegadriver, install it on Quality (because this increass the pure FPS performance also) and look at the console when being ingame.
You can easily overclock the Videocard with this driver. It searches for the safe maximum the Videocard can handle. On my old 6600GT which ran on 500Mhz Core and 1Ghz effective DDR, it set the card to 576/1150...

Is your video card the "NVIDIA" FX5200 or the "XFX" FX 5200?

I have an Intel Pentium 4 3Ghz, with 1GB of Corsair XMS Gaming RAM, and the XFX FX 5200.
And you have to take into account, it isn't just the performance ratings of your hardware that matter. There are other factors to take into consideration as well. Your computers health is the biggest part. Things like your hard drive being extremely fragmented, your RAM being fragmented, your hard drive having low memory, having alot of useless processes running, viruses, spyware, malware, adware, ect. There are alot of factors besides hardware that matters.
Also, in a previous post, I said I did not test it during online play, I only tested it in multiplayer practice. I had Vsync disabled as well.

This project is a definate MUST GET for people owning compatible video cards.
I'm actually experiencing the game in full details now whereas I always had to play on the one but lowest performance setting. I still need to find the exact best settings after some testing though.

My FPS seems to be much more solid when I'm not recording. I am getting some (seemingly random) lockups of Renegade though...

Wrong, read again. They were getting 700+ FPS on the menu screen, not in game. And it is possible.

I posted this topic only 2 hours after it was posted at CNCDEN. As for how Lion found it, I wouldn't know.

I was talking about the menu screen. I'd sure love to see proof, not that having a frame rate over 50 matters.
