|

Sup people! My computer is decent. 2.2ghz, 1g ram, 256 radeon vid. I have to run dod source 480x640 with only some of details turn on. Is there anything I can do through the console to increase my fps at higher resolution? It seems I should be able to at least run it 800x600 =( _________________ =(M)-(M)= Mal n the m00bs - TVC 06 finalists

Well I have an amd 3700 2.2 GHz, 1GB RAM and an x850 256MB and I run it fine on high with full HDR at 1024x768. I don't see why you'd be getting bad performance. HMMMMMMMMMMM... _________________

Let me clarify what I mean by bad performance. Maybe that'll help disgnose the issue. It runs on 1024x768 on high, but the screen is slow to react to my mouse movements. _________________ =(M)-(M)= Mal n the m00bs - TVC 06 finalists

i agree that there is something else going on. i'm running a 1.6ghz athlon xp with 512 megs of pc2100 and a 256 mb nvidia card on 4x agp. even with that, i can still play at 600x800 with some detail, though it does lag out from time to time. how long has you computer been acting up like this? any recent hardware changes? any other programs running in the background? |

none of the above apply to me. It's always been "mushy" when I move the mouse fast. I tried adjusting the mouse sensitivity first. that made it worse. I slowly started reducing resolution and details, it gradually got better. Finally I got to the bare minimum and the screen reacts immediatly, like the screen is attached to my hand - no delay between the mouse and screen.
There's nothing running in background.
I ran anti spyware
I ran registry clean up
Defragged
checked drivers for video card
After all that I just accepted that my computer can't run source very well =(

Increasing max FPS will not make the game run any better. Are all your rates set correctly? Make sure Steam isn't set to 14k or something with your connection. There could be some program running in the background like antivirus or something. _________________

I wish I knew what all the correct rates were stevo. Currently, all the values are default. How do I know how to adjust all this stuff? Is there a walk-through of some sort? I would be stoked if someone would come over and do it for me Anyone live in San Diego wanna make some extra money? _________________ =(M)-(M)= Mal n the m00bs - TVC 06 finalists
