Title: nvidia riva tuner and best fs setup
Post by: captain-custard on January 02, 2009, 06:11:52 pm
just a quick question , not really a problem more of an info thing really

ive got a 3 year old acer laptop (nvidia 7300 go 256 ram) that runs fs ok (ish) ive recently installed a nvidia force ware to upgrade the open gl settings and i am overclocking with riva tuner, the difference with mediavps is amazing(latest builds and latest mvps)

i was wondering if any one has experience with riva tune and can give me some advice on tweaking the settings to give the most out of my card ...... open gl settings etc... so i can maximise my fps etc...

thanks

Does this mean that you don't actually have any problems with FS at the moment?

just fps but not really problems , bouncing between 100fps (in starield no nebulas and planets) and 18fps when next to and around  cap ship exploding , averaging about 45fps in general combat............

Kk. Was just pondering whether this counts as a support request or something else.

me aswell its sort of support and sort of tweaking, how about a child board for graphic tweaking and ppl posting personal set ups ?

what is the minimum fps that the game is playable at?


can you leave this here and lets see if someone has an answer....

slowly managing to get the fps up now at 20fps (capship exploding next to ship)  45 normal play   and 120 in free space , so if any one knows how to tweak this at the capship exploding end id be sooo happy
