Hello all! Probably my first post in the tech section.......lol
I noticed while offline testing that my usual framerate of 45-55 fps would drop to about 13 fps whilst firing my guns (same for tracers on or off). Tried various display settings. Finally in Video screen when I unchecked the hardware vertex processing option and ran the game, the drop whilst firing was reduced to about 35-45 fps. So I prefer to keep the option unchecked. However, now I am getting some strange visuals when in water.
Following is what I got when I took a screenshot:
Had to PRINT SCREEN this one in:
This is what I am getting and I guess it cause the water is now processed somehow differently....(we use to have a check mark for water effects to right?)
Any Ideas?
