Not nice FPS with a very nice (I assume) PC

[cica]

Oh I see, I thought I was just not supposed to have Vsync on in two places at once.

I suggest using the value "let application choose" (or whatever it's like in other languages) for Nexuiz. A system with an E6600 and a 8800GT should be able to run Nexuiz at >400fps with 1280 resolution on default settings.

At least this works on my rig (E6750/GF9600GT/WXP) at any time.

I was thinking about buying a 9600gt. what kind of fps you get with all settings enabled except for relief mapping and 4x anisotropic with 1024x768 resolution? in levels such as downer or basement.

[Urmel]

If I use the settings you suggested and create a local game without bots, I get around 150fps averagely (min 127 / max 205). However, I notice some comparatively jerky movement, certainly caused by the limiting CPU. So those settings are generally not recommendable for playing.

Heh, I play with lowest quality now. Game still looks very good and I have FPS of 250

TFT LCD monitors lack the capability to refresh more rapidly than the refresh rate, therefore a framerate greater than the refresh rate is meaningless.

[:)]

... bigwords .... a framerate greater than the refresh rate is meaningless.

Yes, but at 250 fps, the game polls your hardware at 250 Hz. (At least I think so?)

Framerate capped at the refresh rate will yield the greatest common factor, therefore a frame would match each refresh cycle.

The thing is,
2.4.2 was runing smothly for me, some bugs but no other problems.
2.5 and 2.5.1 is no good and it runs as an old movie now.
Devolepers miss something.
No hard fillings.

On "Low" detail settings my FPS range is 49-73
On "Ultimate" detail settings my FPS range is 44-77

There doesn't seem to be much difference to me whatsoever!

Doesn't this mean my FPS is bottlenecked exclusively by my Processor/RAM/FSB?

Specs:
E6600 Core2 Duo (2x2.4Ghz, 2x2mb L2 Cache, 1066mhz)
2x1GB DDR2 667mhz
8800GT

Nothing overclocked.

I can appreciate the game would probably only use one core, but this is still a little strange, right?

Thanks in advance!

Hey, I think this would probably help... It helped me alot to boost my fps! So go in ur nexuiz folder and go to data, and look for the config.cfg if its not there then look in other folders in ur nexuiz folder. Once u found the config.cfg make a text file, so right click in the folder where config.cfg is, and look for text file or text document or something like that. Then name it autoexec.cfg After you have done that copy and paste this in the autoexec.cfg text file.

This worked on my arch linux comp. Dunno if this will work for urs or whatever ur using. But just try. I think in windows, the text file is called text document. Its notepad most likely so just copy and paste this in ur text document/notepad called autoexec.cfg and try ur game again and tell me ur results.

Note: maybe its ur internet?

EDIT: Make sure u re-name ur text file to autoexec.cfg !! if its not with .cfg i don't think it will work.
