Azz 0 Posted July 2, 2002 Well, From all these result's it seems to be that you need a lot of RAM and a fast processor for OFP:R to run nicely im thinking the new island uses a heck of a lot of RAM and the improved graphics does too. It seems multiplayer can run at higher graphics spec than Single Player mode and thecampaign... I think that would be the use of script's and a lot more AI... Which causes thats slowness So if you have been playing OFP:R for any length of time say 3 hours or so in a row, well then go put on the kettle as you will have time for a cup of tea before it eventually shut's down. it's definatley a RAM Killer. Well it's good to know my PC isnt broken... Just a lack of RAM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

munger 25 Posted July 2, 2002 XP 1800+ 512 DDR Geforce 3 Win XP Pro CPU benchmark varies by as much as 1000 points; sometimes it's around 3800, sometimes around 4800. I run Resistance at 1280x1024 32bit all preferences set to highest but auto-dropdown at 8x, high terrain detail, 1000m viewdistance, max visual quality, max framerate, all options on except w-buffer. EAX and sound hardware acceleration active. Runs smoothly on the whole. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

munger 25 Posted July 3, 2002 You will have problems if you run at Very High detail - no video card in existence can manage it without seriously compromising on view distance. Resistance is an altogether different beast to OFP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhoCares 0 Posted July 3, 2002 I played a little around with the memory usage and some maps, you can find the results somewhere over here. It would be fine, if someone could reverify this results. One conclusion of this tests would be, that a maschine with 128MB can't play the new campaign. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ejanvi 0 Posted July 3, 2002 Athlon 1800+, 512 RAM, Via Chipset, GeForce 4400, Win98SE. I run in 1600x1200 (I thought it made no difference, but it does in terms of definition) Antialiasing at 4xS Terrain detail at Very High (dunno what difference it makes, but seriously bogs the FPS) Visibility at 900 (anything beyond brings crashes & error messages related to Virtual Memory - a pity, because 900 is not a lot when yu are shooting with a Tank: you don't see the ennemy, but the ennemy sees you through the fog...) Windows Swap file on automatic (fixed doesn't work, cf. my post in this forum) All textures to max (esp. Special Effects) Image quality at default (sort of middle: increasing it hurts FPS too much) Frame rates 13-20 Auto-drop down x2 The movies are stuttering so badly that you have to skip them. In game FPS suffer serious stuttering at the beginning, then seem to get OK after a few minutes. But quitting the mission and quitting the game mean each time some 2 mn of disk churn before you recover the hand (don't know what is happening during this time & why quitting the game takes so long). I think that we should develop a point of view on the best settings. In any case, Resistance gets easily to the point where my machine can't cope any more (waiting for 10 GHz CPU and 2 Gigas memory??). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 29 Posted July 3, 2002 You want to drop terrain detail down to high for a start, very high seems to be a future proof type thing, I don't believe there's a system out there that can run max detail, high resolution at very high. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

munger 25 Posted July 3, 2002 I actually think very high terrain detail looks worse than high detail - it just looks unrealistic with millions of bumps all as far as the eye can see. High detail is still bumpy, but in a more real way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

N.o.R.S.u 0 Posted July 4, 2002 A small tip: Texture resolution settings are very important, if you use the best resolution available the game will run slowly unless you have LOT of memory. Same thing happens in SOF2, high res textures just take so much memory to run. I suggest that you run game with 1024x1024 max texture resolution. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
