low fps mod

[bballn45]

hey guys can someone tell me the low fps mod thing and how to do it? Thanks

[yata]

you mean high fps?

you use primevils low res skins and birght skins, if you like...

go here: http://primevil.fr/index.php?dir=cube%2F...t%2Fpro%2F, bottom file on that page(i think!!) download, and replace textures with the low res ones..

Primevil took the low-res and brightskins out of his pack, so that wouldn't work.

goes to show how much i know..

guess you could turn down all the settings for video, that boosts up your fps alot.

[iOD|Habluka]

make sure to include the /texreduce 3 command

[Gibstick]

I say again, here are some commands.

[SELECT ALL] Code:

texreduce 3          //Reduces texture resolution
trilinear 0          //Disables trilinear filtering
bilinear 0           //Disables bilinear filtering (ugly as hell)
dynlights 0          //Disables dynamic lights
minlod 60            //Lower level of detail
vsync 0              //No vertical sync
lighterror 20        //The higher, the faster, the uglier
blood 0              //No blood
gibnum 0             //No gibs.

Thanks gibstick. These really helped. Where did you find these?

[Bukz]

Been there for years, or of course, it all comes with your install of AC.

[Gibstick]

I got them from the reference, makkE, and Bukz's autoexec.

Thanks Gibstick i know have LOTS more FmC (Like 30 more than usual)

Takes a little time to get used to though.....

None of these commands make a significant difference to my fps. Around 3 frames at max. But what I've noticed is, the smaller you make your AC window the gigher your FPS goes. If you make it really small (unreadable) You can make it go from 20 to 200.

[Bukz]

The lower the resolution, the higher the frame rate - *usually*. Disabling trilinear filtering and texreduce would probably be the only two really helpful commands in this situation.

[Gibstick]

Lighterror makes a big difference for crappy cards. (!)

[kaz]

" bilinear 0 " it is the worse command ... makes your ac really ugly .

[yata]

yer i didn't do that one, its terrible

you could go windowed, but then its.. weird
on mac at least, if you got like any features on it can be very annoying

if you can go full screen, do it!

[Lightning]

bilinear doesn't help alot. Only trilinear and texrduce work.

[yata]

doesnt hurt to use then all :P

are there any other things to do to boost your fps up?

[Impakt'd]

Try changing your system's color quality from 32-bit to 16-bit. Helped a lot for me.

Use the above + Gibstick's post + playing at a lower resolution (like 800x600) for best results if you're still getting sub 40 fps.

[Gibstick]

There's a launcher argument for that. Bit depth also goes well with it. Just add

[SELECT ALL] Code:

-z24 -b16

before the %1 %2 %3 %4 %5. So for example, it would look like

[SELECT ALL] Code:

FOR /f "tokens=2-4 delims=/ " %%a in ('date /t') do (set date=%%a-%%b-%%c)
FOR /f "tokens=1-3 delims=: " %%a in ('time /t') do (set time=%%a%%b-%%c)

bin_win32\ac_client.exe --init -z24 -b16 -T %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 >> clientlogs\clientlog-%date%-%time%.txt
REM pause
