Low FPS

  • I get low FPS when facing planets or I am docked somewhere, be it a station or a planet, otherwise it's a smooth ride. Is there someone who knows how to overcome this problem ?

  • Spiky, it didn't work... even at lowest settings.


    Kermit, I tried lots of stuff + the ones you recommended, same problem persists... it's really driving me insane... any recommendations guys, short of reinstalling the windows ?

  • new hardware... or reinstall windows always solves some minor isues until the operator again clutters it up ;)

    Anyway, no new hardware. The computer hasn't change in a few months now...

  • well it has changed - you used it and so the little components aka resistors, coils, chips are getting older and loose their stability by the time they are used... your comp is getting older every time you use it!

  • Huor, my PC is some 7 or so months old... I don't think it's possible to be the reason. Not to mention that the FPS drop rate happend suddenly, I play... I quit playing, I come 10-20 minutes later on and the huge problem emerges... It's way too sudden.

  • might your PC be infected with a virus / adware / spyware / malware / worm / Trojan and so on...
    this can cause some unpredicted things (even a 5m virus scanner cant stop the new ones cuz new ones are made by the second i think?)


    might be something worth looking at:)

    That's what proactive defence (as in not signature-based) is for - it analyzes the worm's behavior to see if it's really a worm. IMO most of new AVs have it. I know that kaspersky does :P

  • Well, so far from what I've seen, I have no choice, but a windows reinstall ;(... I really didn't want it to come to that. However what happens if the problem persists even after a reinstall ?

  • take your pc kick it, throw it to the wall, scream "WAAGABOOONGAA" and finally throw it out of the window



    Or, install windows 7 >_>

  • Latter option sounds good, but isn't it still in it's development stages or is it finally out, a good working Windows 7 ?

  • Well beta phase is until August, you can conclude that you are able to play CF without any lag until then... but you cannot download Windows 7 anymore nor get a key from their official site, torrents!!


    You better send a PM to Kalisie for both W7 and a CD-key ;)



    Fleet Captain Spiky / WL

  • Spiky, I only have one key left, and I dont have access to the microsoft win7 download page anymore because they took it down. Yes you could find a working(clean) torrent for it, the only problem is there is no guarantee that it will last till august. ^^

  • sure it'll last :) just take the beta not one of the leaked pre-RC builds


    also the keys still work and there's only 5 or so of them for each version (x86/x64)

  • I'll stick to windows for now. Anyway, there will be some time before I get my lazy ass (forgive the rude language lol) to reinstall the windows, so you can brainstorm for ideas on this and how to counter it... cause like I said even a clean windows might not do the trick.
