I got a P3 600mhz, 64mb geforce2, 320 megs of ram, sound blaster live 5.1, and a cable modem....
I get about 10-20 fps in the fucking demo... shouldn't i be getting about 60-70 with all the shit i got? I just reformatted my comp and this demo is about the only program i got on it. Even when i make my own server and run with a 0 ping i get about 40 fps indoors and 25-30 outdoors, whats my fucking comp's problem?

O yeah i should mention that all this was running on the lowest video settings possible. It seems like it runs the same on 512x384 w/ lowest settings as it does 1024x768 w/ highest settings. The video settings don't seem to matter at all. Could my processor just be too slow?

Wow i got a reply fast, i dont shoot for highest settings, i am on the very lowest possible.

In any Q3 engine game I suggest using 16 bit color and 32 bit texture.

You will barely notice a visual difference but the performance gain is huge.

I'm running a 1.5 gig athlon, geforce 3, 512mb Mushkin, 100gig's of IBM 7200 and I use 16 bit color and 32 bit texture in all Q3 engine based games.

I never push my resolution beyond 800x600.

Generally, I run FOV 120 but haven't figured out how to do that with MOH:AA.

Thanks, you got a nice setup man, but shouldnt i be getting about 60-70 fps when there is no action going on, and about 40-50 when there is? (asuming you already read my stats) my friend has a P3 800mhz, a 32mb tnt2, and 200 megs of ram, and the same sound card as me and he gets the kind of performance i just mentioned above. I got more and better shit (execpt he beats me by 200 mhz on the processor) and his comp runs great.

I have a cheap video card combined with a 700 mhz Athlon, and the demo runs fine. I have it at 800*600*16. ALL options are at medium setting.

try reading the read-me file. there's some tips there to improve performance.

yeah, i just reformatted, virus scanned, etc. etc. Moh is about the only program i got on here right now, except for winamp. I don't know whats up, and i know its not just my video settings, im not looking for tweaks, i can run 25 fps with all settings all maxed out (including 1600x1280 res.), and i can run 30 fps with all the settings at lowest, so i don't think it is my settings. Could i just be limited by my processor speed? ( I was looking in my comp last night (installing sound card) and i found the fatest heat sink you've even seen, it was about a third the size of the tower, i think my processor was probably like a 400mhz but HP overclocked it to 600mhz, cuz i got this comp right when 600mhz just came out and was unheard of.)

SIN, i bet u are having the same problems as i am, u should be getting about 100 fps. Those little bastards with 700mhz w/ 128 megs ram and tnt2's are getting way better fps than us. I've been trying everything for the past 2 years im ready to pull my video and sound cards out and beat the rest of this damn comp with a sledgehammer (and i got one too hehe)

Let me clear up that the fps i described above where in my own game w/ a 0 ping and noone else there. I was just playing one the best server and there were only 4 people and i was getting an average of 10-14 fps, about 24 when i dont see/hear anyone, and about 9-10 when someone was shooting at me.

meh, dont expect outrageous fps for thatkind of system... its actually pretty ancient man

i get about 70 fps max... and 20-30 in a firefight
amd 900, 512 ram... geforce 2 mx 200 64 meg

so yeah... and thats at 800x600 all max... so i guess i could lower it... but still dont expect great things

I don't expect great, im just comparing mine to my friend's. He's got a 800mhz P3, 200 megs ram, and an old-ass tnt2.(Not too great) He gets around 70-80 with noone on the screen and 40 in the middle of a fat battle. I get about 8 or 9 in a fat battle and that cannot be normal. I get 15 fps shooting at nothing in my own game with noone else in the game.

Truthfully, I wouldn't let it trouble you much man. I have an Athlon 1.0ghz, GeForce 3 Ti500 and I get 20fps with 8 or more people in the game. I have tried every driver, system setting, and even took-apart and rebuilt my computer. I just equate it to bugginess at this point. Don't let it trouble you. I just tend to stick with games of 8 or less.

However, I am running with everything at max (except complex shadows of course...too much strain on my gpu). Sorry couldn't be more of a help http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/frown.gif

I have an Athlon 800, 640mb ram, 32mb GeForce 2 MX and a sound blaster live 5.1 and I'm getting about 60fps inside and 30 outside with almost everything on max (1024x768x32 rsolution). I don't ko what the problem could be with yours. Have you tried defragging your hard drive lately?

-Freestyler

usually its all about configuration and setup

anyone can buy a brand new 2gig machine and have it run like total crap..

or like myself, you could have a 2-3 year old machine and tweak and know how it works... like a car
its got a feel to it

I got a p4 1.3, Geforce 2 GTS 32MB DDR, 128 RAM, and I get 99 FPS max, and average of about 65. The lowest it goes is 30.

Yo Jezus what kind of settings, cuz i know it's not the video settings cuz i've tried every setting config possible

quiet- hey! i have almost the same system as u! believe me u can run on 1024 with no problem http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/wink.gif

can anyone send me a config file that would work good with my comp.
I got a P3 600mhz, 64mb geforce2, 320 megs ram, sound blaster live audio card. (I admit that stuff aint great but it should run damn skippy with only myself in the game right?)

I thought my comp was running this game just great, had a resolution of 1024x768 and all effect maxed. It ran great, until I played it online that is... The playerskins must be very high detailed or something.

Runing at 800x600 now with some tweaked settings, would like to have some more goodies turned on though. http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/frown.gif http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
