Title: how many see a FR hit in equinox
Post by: 38ruk on March 10, 2005, 10:00:57 AM

Just wondering how many are having problems on the equinox map?  I see FPS drop into the mid 50's at times . MY system is pretty good on most maps but this one really bogs it down at times . wondering how people with less of a system are doing . Heard alot of people complaining about it last night .my system is

AMD 64 3400+
X800 PRO
1024 MB pc 3200

1/2 my squad oddly.

JB42 and JB11 especially.

i can't figure anything out. i was unstable (fluxuated between 39 and 51 in the tower), but never the drop some are claiming.

Old RAM and motherboard I was getting a 30FR hit...new mobo and RAM I get a 25FR hit. Equniox is the hardest on my system. Personally, I think it's the terrain that screws up the FR...get higher and it smoothes out, get in a low fight near a base with 20 planes in the area and FR drops to 20 sometimes.

Drops of 20 or 30? :rofl  That happen to me I'd be running at 0fps.  

When this map comes up, if I get into anything than a 1 on 1 near a field, fps goes to 15, if I am lucky.  Throw VOX in the equasion and it becomes unplayable.  Did not say a word to squadies while in the air last night.

Yup...lose 25 to 35 FPS w/ this map. And frankly I don't have enough to sacrifice as it is.

What is this VOX thingy you speak of? Seems like I remember something similar to that in AH1. :D

For what ever reason, this map looks like parts of Greece.  If it is infact a flooded pizza, then the coincidence is scary :eek:

I flew it for the first time last night and it killed my frames very noticably. often down to mid 20s and lower near a base and town with no flame and very few cons.

2500 Athelon
ATI 9500 pro
512 megs of ram.
