I dont think its the Geforce thats the couse of the Frame Loss, there is some other reason for it, not sure what it is though

I would recommend more ram.
Nowadays games can use more than 256MB..

I have a system with 1.0Ghz Athlon, 512 DDR RAM and a GeForceMX/400 64MB. I still get pretty good framerate in battles with settings at 1024x768res and max effects...about 20fps usually. With all settings at medium I get about 40fps.

Also check your drivers and FSB speed.
Hopefully you're running at 133Mhz FSB...
Make sure you're using the most updated AGP drivers for your motherboard, and I would recommend Detonator 21.83 drivers for your vid card. 23.11 drivers have given me major problems..

BTW, what brand of motherboard are you using?
It actually can make quite a difference.

Im using a Soltek SL-75KAV/-X
Should do the job i think.

The thing is, im finding it very hard to understand that it doesn mater what detail setting i use, my frame rate stays the same.

Every game programed on the Q3 engine i can run in full detail and still get a very Solid all round frame rate, with MOH its not the case at all, everything low gets me the same bad FPS as im gething with everything on High.

Everything under 25 im taking as unplayeble.

Could More Ram Get Me More Solid Frame Per Sec ?

I love MOH so dont get me wrong here, but there are some things that are wurth bashing at.

My system packs.

TB 1200mhz
GF3 TI 500
256mn SDRAM

Still frames jump down below 20 at times without seeing anything looking to complicated on screen.

I can get into the fact that frames drop on the SP Omaha Beach scene, cos there's alot of scripting going on.
But Frame Loss in MP i just can't coop with.
Nothing to big is going on but still frame loss like hell all over the place, first i thought it had something to do with Lag, but once i saw the FPS on screen i went like UH!!!

Nothing changes when i tone the details down.

So the question is, is DDRAM Needed to play a slick running version of this game?
2015 are keeping there lips sealed, same go's for EA.
I would feel ripped off if this is the case, and would have waited to but this title till i got my self some DDR dims.

I agree with HellBaby here - my system is pretty similar and I get 30 fps +/- 10 fps on Omaha.

I did notice one thing that will make my frame rate drop drastically---FIRE!

You know when you blow up trucks the engine starts burning? When I look at that fire, from say about 5 metres away, my fps will drop to about 15fps +/- 10. Walking away from or nearer the fire (while looking at it) won't change the fps by much. This was when playing at 1024x768x32, max settings.

I tried changing one or two settings in the game but couldn't get the frame rate up. Didn't bother after that cos I'm pretty satisfied with the fps I've got now. My system is:

Athlon XP 1500 @ 1338MHz
Epox 8KHA+ mobo
2 x 256MB Kingston DDR RAM
Abit Siluro Geforce2 MX400 o/c 200/195
nVidia 23.11 ref drivers
40GB Maxtor D740XL 7200rpm
52X Aopen CD-ROM
Enlight 340W p/s

What do you mean piece of crap moron. It was a good card in its day so stfu.


------------------
nVidiot: Human being brainwashed by false statements and propaganda from nVidia Corp. into believing all things GeForce are of the highest of superiority and defy all logical grounds of video cardness. Belief in 3Dmark2001 Benchmark scores regardless of quality, functionability, and compatability is a common worship and religion of these fundamentalists. However do not take these poor souls lightly they are armmed heavily with propeganda, false statements, DetonatorXPs, and GeForces. Remember nVidiots come in all shapes and sizes. Be on guard or you will be assimilated.
