FPS loss

Post by pax » Mon Jul 12, 2004 1:20 am

when i start up with WinEQ it shaves 20+ fps off to the point where i really dont like it (from 40fps to around 25fps) ive tried to fool around in the settings to no avail. when i saw you had a new release out i thought you might have fixed it, but im still loosing alot of frames :cry: . not sure what info you need to help me, but tell me and ill post it.

20fps is quite a lot. What CPU, video card, how much memory, etc and when was the last time you updated video drivers?

Edit: that gave me back ~5fps but still not enough to be enjoy-able :(

log looks pefectly normal to that point. You sure your testing is accurate? Using same graphics/sound options, standing in the same exact place in the same exact zone, looking at the same exact things? I can make some minor changes, but WinEQ does next to nothing each frame, certainly not enough to give a 20fps slowdown...

Can you paste WinEQ.log from logging in completely to in-game? The paste shows startup, which shows DirectX8, but not once it has intiialized through character select, which is where DirectX9 begins. You can skip the part you've shown already

Hmmm interesting, EQ is calling Reset on the device with abnormal parameters. If that's the problem I'll have it fixed for you tomorrow.

Are you using multiple monitors?
