Gunter Severloh 4070 Posted July 3, 2012 Hello Rusvolk, To answer your question most sound mods, should work on any server you join, sounds are not specific to any mission servers are running in other words a sound mod is usually not required to play any mission unless the missions maker uses files from a sound mod in their mission. FPS helping mods as far as i know are client side and shouldn't effect your performance in terms of limits on a server, server performance is effected in many ways those such as how much Ai is running around at once int he mission for a good example of this civilian modules I found that were setup in missions cause more lag then anything i have ever encountered, and then the setup of the servers basic.cfg which is the configuration file for performance tuning, and such to run, as well as many other things. Location of server makes a big difference as well, if your in Russia and you jump on a server thats in Florida, USA then you may get some bad lag, so best to stick with servers that are local to you. Then of course theirs your cpu, what can your cpu handle, im sorta of like you I have an somewhat aging pc, but for me its my cpu, its at the point where it overheats within 10min so i can play briefly. Anyways hope that answers some questions, maybe someone else can further extend or provide more details. Hope that helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
