FPS wise? I just got out of a game and - for the first time - I noticed the rain and fog on Field. Which is a nice touch. But my FPS seemed faster than what it usually would have been.

EDIT: played another game. Held on to an average of about 32-35 FPS which is really very good for my PC. Usually I get 5-15.

are you sure the rain isn't from ssaow? b/c I've noticed rain / fog before cp1. Confused

As for fps wise I'm not too sure.


When history witnesses a great change, Razgriz reveals itself,
First as a dark demon,
As a demon it uses its power to reign death upon the land;
and then it dies.

However, after a period of slumber, Razgriz returns.
This time as a great hero...

I don't mind the rain of fog but I thought those would have worsened my FPS.

I'll play more today and see whats up with it.

Weather, vehicle animations, all those featues of SSAOW will decrease performance for players on your server.

They may look like nice eye candy but really it is just not worth it.

if you go switch between windowed and full screen your fps will get shit I never got it to my self but some of my clan got that problem

But the rain and all other shit make you SFPS like shit or somethings else if we got 15 players on our server the sfps goes to 45 and hold it there till someone leaves and it gonna warp
ferry strange if someone knows what it is

Maybe over-heated graphics card?
Or just something that causes an overflow in the CPU memory that kills the CPU. Check the task manager and see how much RAM and processor power is being used when at 1FPS.

Try setting the Graphics settings to performance rather than quality.

It's not memory leak or an overheated card. It's (bad) RAM. with some games it doesn't like to release what's there. A simple reboot clears it though.

And yes, my graphics are at the lowest possible.

I had this problem whenver i played Lightwave. For some reason my FPS would slowly decrease and by the end of the game I would be luck if I had 7-8 FPS. The SFPS was fine, but it only Happened on lightwave!

I have a pretty tight system and since CP1 I have had no changes that are noticeable. "scratches head"

I like the rain, very calming and peaceful, but it keep rusting my gun "giggle" Cool

That's because Titan made Lightwave, and we all know how Titan's work is... He has insisted on doing some stupid crap type of deathmatch gameplay based on a bunch of identical looking corridors. The reason why framerates are low is because the construction of that level was so poor that no consideration was given to framerate.

MutationRedux is a map notrouis for the "progressive" fps slow down.
It starts at over 120, and by the end of the map I'm at about 15.

Note, in the end of the map, thier are only infantry buildings left, not tanks, you would think the fps would be high but it isn't. This map just keeps getting lower and lower, even if you go and stare at a tree in LAN mode with just 1 player, you will notice the fps slowly keeps dropping Confused
