Quote from Woz :The other thing to try is switch back to full size textures but drop down to 16bitgfx from 32bit and enable dither. This will give you a big life in fps without the ugly effects of half size textures

if u mean 16bit in resolution i already have it to 16 bit.

and dither is on also...hmm.

Quote from kompa :I never ran LFS with anything other than MAX settings but I think your best bet would be to try this:

graphics options

the top LOD sliders: 0,50 - 0,20 - 0,50
full size textures = no
car and helmet skins = compressed

see if that gets you anywhere

OMFG DUDE YOUR MY HERO!!!!

I got 98.8 FPS in 3rd person view and 70 FPS incar!!!

That was alone but still a major improvement and it still looks great ingame!!!!111oneoneone

EDIT:Yeah i turned off "Multiplayer car speedup" so i know what that is and Vsync is off.

Gonna check that dynamic thing now. Its at 0.50 so it should be okay.

Quote from kompa :so you're using XP? close all the useless apps from the backgroud (leave firewall on) eating your ram&cpu, then start to pull the graphics sliders towards left within LFS until you get some decent frames with a full AI field for example. And if you have anti aliasing/anisotropic filtering on in the graphics card drivers, turn them off.

I don't even know what half the apps are and if i close one of em out it might be a system thing and my comp might go into a neverending restart cycle.

Can't you just tell me something else ingame? I turned AA and AF off from the graphics card.

Will hardware vertex shading help if its on?

Quote from mcintyrej :*lays quiverring in the corner.*

Your computer is pretty old. Older than mine, which I thought wasn't possible. I'm guessing its an AGP Motherboard? Try getting a cheap Graphics card, mine can be bought for around £25 these days, if your AGP, that is.

DID U NOT READ THREAD NAME?!?!?!? *beats more with stick*

I CANNOT upgrade ANYTHING on this computer.

It simply won't work my dad says and hes the one who gave it to me.

He's also the man who scored 143 on his IQ test so im going with what he says lol.

Processor: AMD Athlon XP 3200+, MMX, 3DNow, ~2.2GHz
Memory:512MB RAM

Graphicscard:NVIDIA Geforce FX 5200
Total Memory 128.0 MB

Guess thats it.

That will tell you what CPU you have, how fast it's running, how much ram you have, and how fast that's running.

Quote from Cr!t!calDrift :Yep, I posted a thread on the forums. Immature behaviour is no longer tolerated.

Also, I don't want anymore negative comments other than critisism. I'll talk to my members if i have to, but aside that, respect my thoughts on your posts.

Ehh your right sorry about the mess and whatnot.

Having a bad week right now but its not an excuse for my behavior.

I run a Stock PC (not sure excact specs but it has a GeforceFX5200 in it) and I get around 20-30 FPS in packed servers and 30-40 (peaks at 47) when im alone.

Anyone know how I can make it so I have more FPS while playing but still have it look decent?

Quote from XenoWolf :I liked some of the transitions and shot angles near the end. The one where you were 'mounted' on the sidepod and switched seamlessly between three different cars was really impressive.

Thanks and I wasn't really sure about that part.

How I had a black car made it look like he was an evil driver or something

Quote from Spangler_CZE :for a second vid its nice, graphics is nice, only fps is problem and its easy to fix it next time

Since I use WMM I should limit FPS ingame to like half and when I edit it speed it up double so it goes at "normal" pace and looks good right?

Quote from Spangler_CZE :Really loq fps here... try to catch movies on 0.250x speed, set fraps to for ex. to 10 fps and LFS too, after recordig edit the movie and give him 4x speed...

I cant watch this movie, because fps is really low, there are lots of "bugs"

Well what did you expect for my 2nd movie? A friggin blockbuster hit??

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :AMD Athlon 64 - 2.41GHz
2GB of RAM over 500mhz or something I think its DDR2
Nvidia Geforce 7900GT Graphics Card
320GB SATA2 16mb Cache Hard Drive

I don't know the full stats in detail because I don't take much notice of it, all I know is the graphics card alone cost more than the whole PC.

I can run LFS in game with full AA on but I prefer to keep my FPS higher than 60 at all times, its useful at the starts to have no slow down in FPS. Also I would have to use half speed all the time when recording these videos, which would be a bit of a pain.

Dude im lucky if I can EVER see my ingame FPS go to 60.

I run a 5200 sadly but my dad bought a GT7300 the other day for his PC.

When I win the lottery show me the links to all the items in your PC lol.
