Hey guys, the title basically says it all. I am having framerate problems on Rise of the Triad. I can basically max out Crysis 3 with my GTX 770, but I play Rise of the Triad on low settings in 1280x720, and can't get any higher than 45 FPS with major FPS drops.
I'm having the same problem. My specs are much lower than yours (6850) and I'm getting about the same performance. And now I'm crashing ever time I join a sever.
I have massive fps drops when I get god mode. I do have the game maxed out, but my rig should definitely handle it. I have 2 gtx 670s in SLI, 3570k cpu.
I wonder if there will be a tweak guide. I wonder is physx is killing performance or maybe dynamic shadows, etc. Physx usually seems to suck on most games.
I was actually beginning to wonder if my 4 year old rig was up to the task, but then i had to keep reminding myself...it's a DX9 game.
(Rig specs on my profile)
I'm relieved to hear my machine isn't the only one with Framerate Issues, I did some rooting around in the config files myself after seeing this game stutter after getting past the Shooting gallery in 1-2.
Here's what i've tried:Installing on a 2nd Hard disk(Not the OS Drive).
Options changed: (effect) Allow OpenGL(Black Screen nothing happening) Memory pool options from 512 to 1024
Everything set on ludicrous except AA and minimal Anisotropic filtering.(Playing @ 1920x1080)
Shadow settings set to lower settings
These seemed to relieve the stutter for a little bit but didn't last long
I'm gonna look into more things later, though i'm guessing there could be a memory leak, (seen it happen with Firefox), also gonna look at stuff which affects overall system performance: C&Q/C1E, Power Management, Core Parking......
Hope i'm not appearing to waffle here.
Btw: Really enjoyed the game on your server lastnight, will have to do that again, Logan and you guys are definate Ass Kickers, i'm kinda rusty
