Switch to 16bit

It looks like shit in 16 bit. I have the same prob Tyler. I have a amd 450 and a voodoo 5 5500 64mb and it looks ok but I get shitty fps. We just have to bite the bullet and upgrade. I'm looking at the new nforce boards. They have a GeForce MX 400 onboard and use DDR ram. For 300 bucks, I'm gonna get the mobo, an AMD XP1600 and 256 PC2100, in a couple of monthes that is. http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/frown.gif

Do NOT, by any circumstance use the latest Detonator Drivers, they kill FPS, but make the detail look very nice. I have the detonator drivers from 5/17 on a Duron 950 MHz w/ 256 PC 133 RAM and it runs very nice.

There is a **HUGE** difference between the MX400 and the MX200. The 200 is a lobotomized card. The only thing Geforce about it is the name. This card was only made so that PC venders could say "Geforce2 card included!" and for people who dont know any better to buy. Its quite sad really.

It performs more like a TNT2 then a Geforce2 card. Honestly! I have seen benchmarks comparing the TNT2 to a MX200! I researched everything I could about these Geforce2 cards for a month before making my purchase. And im glad i did.. I might have bought a mx200 buy mistake :-(.

Here I found this old link I had. Take a look for more information about the differences between the mx400 and mx200.

actually, i don't think the solution lies in an MX card, the reason MX is cheaper then other GF2 is because it lacks processing power on the card, it allows your CPU to do most of the work, thus, on machines with 1ghz+ its a really cheap card that gets about the same performance as a normal GF2, but on our machines with sub gigahertz processers it just makes a crappy card hehe. The solution is to upgrade your processor or get a GF2 normal (not MX)

ive got a

PIII 866mhz
320mbram
geforce2 mx200 32mb

and I get 65fps when im standing still outside in the square in the stalingrad map and during a big fight i get around 20-25fps.Indoors isint a problem as I get a max of 90fps.I run at 800x600x16 + medium detail.What can I expect in the demo???


------------------

Hey, some games run like 2 old people having sex on my PC, while other ones run like a rabbit evading a wolf.

I have
Duron 900 mhz
Geforce 2 MX 400
250MB RAM
20 gig HD

my card is 32 bit.....but in windows 32 bit gives me shit graphics and winamp locks up my pc

so..WTF! I have all the latest drivers too

please mail me at tyranties@aol.com
with the subject name GeFORCE 2 TROUBLE?

What you really have is a Gforce2 MX 200. The 200 has 34MB of ram, and the 400 has 64.

Pentium really sucks ass when it comes to running with a Gforce2mx card. If you do have a P system, 100 MHz and over is the only way to make sure you wont bog out your card. Anything lower, will bog it to hell, like its doing to mine.

If you have any kind of AMD procs, thats over 500 MHz, you're set ! AMD makes so much better stuff then Pentium, its amazing !

yea, that's what i'm thinking, but it's a stupid dell (building the next one myself) so it won't go above 600 i don't think, and anyway, i'm going with athlon.

Getting new mobo/processer and may need new case at computer show sometime next week.

I have the following system and am only getting about 25fps in th game (i know the counter dosent work, but everything is really jerky amd I can tell its not running correctly):

Athlon 800mhz
640mb ram (pc133)
GeForce2 MX 400

I don't have 4x agp enabled, but I think it is supoorted by my Mobo. Ill go turn it on in a sec http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/smile.gif.

From the MoH videos I've seen this map looks fairly basic. Im totally dreaing Omaha :/

Mine homemade computer runs like a banshee. muahahahaha

Athlon T-bird 1.2 ghz
512 mb PC 2100 DDR
Elsa Gladiac 920 (GeForce 3)
K7T266 Pro2 w/ 4x AGP
http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/smile.gif

Believe me, my financial situation got hit from building this and im paying for it now. http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/frown.gif

i don't know what to do, i've got it on the lowest detail settings, in 640x480 and this stupid computer still can't hold on to 10 FPS when i'm fighting

Specs:

GF2 MX 200 with latest detonater drivers

got new drivers for Dx and my mobo to, my friend tweaked the settings and i OVERCLOCKED the thing and it still doesn't get above 15 FPS in firefights
i can't play like this, i know this card should be doing better then it is.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Well as you would know make sure nothing in running in the back ground.

Also make sure your Motherboard is NOT on 2x AGP, that can slow any card down, I have a PIII 933 Geforce 3, 390Mb RAM and when I was on 2x MOH ran like shit!

Now I got my new MB for X-Mas, with 4x, and she is running great.

Not a lot fo help, but some ideas, also a CPU upgrade could help, i think a 500 is Socket370, so a upgrade to a 800/900Mhz would not cost a lot.

Unless you have a VIA chipset, then 4X can do more damage than 2X.

Read this article:
http://www.viahardware.com/agp4xfix.shtm

You may need to get something like NvMax to enable 4X:

Also, I'm pretty sure fast-writes are disabled by default, with NVmax they show as ghosted, but if you click on it, it'll enable.

After playing with the settings in the SP demo, I found that no matter what I do either with resolution settings or maxing out or lowering the visual quality doesnt affect my fps that much..at most 5 fps. I am running a
1ghtz Athlon Tbird
512 Megs PC 133
Visiontek Geforce3.

I run the game at 40s but dips down to 20s in the big gun battles at 1280x1024 maxed out fully.
I think its that my Video can handle more..its that the CPU is the bottleneck cause any change I make to my video does not really do anything even at 800x600.

I have an Athlon XP 1600+ overclocked and a Geforce3 Ti200 overclocked a little bit, and the game still skips during some turns, and when enemies spawn or something. Do I need more RAM, or do I need to turn down detail or what? It does this at the 'auto configure' settings, which is medium's to max's in advanced, and 800x600x32bit. I have 256MB ddr.
