Title: VGA Gforce 256 32 RAM , Bad FPS
Post by: garrido on October 22, 2001, 04:36:00 AM

Hi friend's:

I´´ve got a Pentium 3 -550 Mhz, an AGP 2x mainboard, 256 RAM, Seagate 4 Gb HD and a Guillemot GForce 256 Videocard.

With 1.07 version i had about 50 FPS in combat and 35 FPS in Taking off. I was using Guillemot drivers and Directx 7.0 Spa.

When i changed to 1.08, Directx 8.0spa and Nvidia Detonator 21.83, FPS has downed enormous. Now, FPS is 18 in take off, 20-25 in normal flight and about 12 in combat (specially if clouds or smoke are show).

Cluter is off.
Alt + F2 (before was Alt+F1)
Video setup AH: Enable Mip: (NO checked). Disable Palettized Textures: (checked).
Video Resl: 1024x768.
Color Depth: 32 Bits.
Max Frame Rate: Unlimited.

How can i configure my Gforce with the lastest Detonator to obtain better FPS?

THX

Supongo

Check mipmapping, and if still low fps try 16bit colour

Para drivers: www.reactorcritical.com (http://www.reactorcritical.com)

Y para los drivers q t convienen, a dia de hoy:

21.88, hay para W2000/XP y para W98/ME (http://www.reactorcritical.com/download.shtml#1000)

Tb he visto por aqui q existen ciertas betas milagrosas del tío Billy:

que la DXsuerte t acompañe! (http://www.guru3d.com/cgi-bin/newspro/viewnews.cgi?)

Bueno, por lo que leo en los foros de reactorcritical, puede que los últimos drivers no sean los mejores (aunque tp puedo asegurar esto), de todas maneras yo tengo puestos los 21.85 y me van bien/mejor que los 5.33 que se supone que eran los mejores para la TnT2 M64 q tengo. Esto es un rollo

Creo que la Dx8.0a es la mejor versión de DirectX, de momento. ¿Alquien podría confirmar o desmentir esto, pls?.

Saludos,

I think Dx8.0a is the best DirectX release so far. Could someone confirm or deny this, pls?

Cheers,

Hello Friend's

I have made the received suggestions and there has been no FPS improvement, I believe that it is the configuration of the VGA. Somebody can help me to form it? That drivers I need?

Thanks

Supongo


Hola amigos:

He realizado las sugerencias recibidas y no ha habido mejora de FPS, creo que es la configuracion de la VGA.

Que drivers necesito?

When i installed 21.83's they turned on FSAA on me, check to make sure FSAA is off, and also try setting to 16 bit colour

Supongo, es el Anti-aliasing. Si lo tienes conectado, el problema reside ahí. La calidad visual mejora con él conectado, pero el framerate sufre horriblemente.
