FPS issues
« on: October 02, 2007, 12:53:30 pm »
This just happened to me in the past few days,  my FPS drops everytime alot of things happen on the screen (example: two people fight).   I've been asking people with similar issues, and it seems to be happening with people that are running soldat in fullscreen, with all the settings maxed for the best appearance and gameplay.  Any help would be appreciated, it makes the game frustrating.  I'm sure I'm not the only person with this issue. 

Oh and i have already deleted soldat, and reinstalled (with restarts in between).  I also updated my gpu's drivers, completely gone over all spyware and made sure i have 30gb of free hardrive space lol.

heres the screens, note the fps in the top right hand corner.

You're aren't alone.  A lot people have been having this problem.  I'm sure MM is aware of it, but I don't know if he'll do anything.

The reason is that your computer is not compatible with the max settings. Try using medium or low settings.

Yes, yesterday while I was playing a 3v3 match I was freezing every 10 or so seconds. The computer had barely anything open but soldat (not like it plays it's best when it's alone.) and it was driving me nuts. I ended up closing some small programs and it got better on the next map. I only froze 5 times or so. Next map after that I was getting no freezes at all. Then finally the last map, there was an announcement of BattleEye restarting, and everyone in the server was lagging, everything was going in slow motion and then quick and it was hard to control yourself because everything was happening slow.. then fast to catch up.

Try spyware and virus scans, and maybe consider defragging your hard drive(s).

It was merely a suggestion to help improve the speed, which could solve the problem by itself.

Then try something called "Overclocking your CPU or graphics card"

My computer is more than powerful enough to run Halflife 2 and its mods, so that isn't the problem.  like i said, this just started.  I've tried the lowest settings and it still has the same problem.  I'm starting to think this is battle eye related related...  but how do i fix it lol

His system's power is not the problem here. Maybe enable video compatability, phaylanx?

that isn't going to fix my fps... i have a 2.4ghz cpu, with 1gb of ram, and a graphics card that is 10x more than soldat will ever need.   apparently the issue has something to do with updates made to the dedicated server, or at least thats the rumor.

ill try video compatibility biscuiteer.

Could somebody with some serious insight into the issue respond please?

its BE which is causing all our ploblems

Fuck off man....thats twice in 2 days that you bashed BE...you are probably a hacker.  Noone knows if this problem is related to BE so just fuck off.
And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
And if there is no room upon the hill
And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too
Ill see you on the dark side of the moon

On BE enabled servers I get kicked for "client not responding or BE failed to upload" and on BE disabled servers everything is fine and i can play well. And i dont hack. I know about them. And yes im a computer nerd.

InuYasha, stop pretending you have these mentioned problems with BE. What you say is totally unlogical.
Please think twice before trying to bash BE the next time.

@Others: Do you have the same problems on non-BE servers?

Join servers that dont have the BE icon next to them (if possible with players on them).

yeah we have discovered through testing that BE seems to be the cause... something happened after the last update maybe?  It wasn't a problem before, so im sure this can be fixed
