Use of -NOMAP if RAM is >1GB

Recommended Posts

After upgrading my Computer from 512MB to 1024MB, OFP is running without the use of the -nomap parameter.I tested OFP with activated Mod`s (FDF, Y2K3, DXdll) and more than 1GB other Addons. Would the use of -nomap still benefit my Systems Performane ore will it decrease the Performance of mine and other Systems with more than 1GB RAM?

Yes, I know that FDF and Y2k3 don`t work together, but if you call 1. FDF 2.Y2K3 you can use the FDF Islands and all changes made by Y2K3. biggrin_o.gif

add command line option -nomap, which will use more compatible way of accessing files, at some performance penalty.

Wouldn't the simplest way to find out be to run a few tests by playing the same mission (for example battlefield single player mission) and seeing the FPS with -nomap and the FPS without?

@ Placebo

Good Idea, will try out later.

Many thanks smile_o.gif

Tested Battlefield with and without nomap, no difference in performance.I get around 7-15 fps (with Y2k3). I`m sure I will get higher framerates without Y2K3, but that would mean i have to play with the original BIS Units, and they are, hmmm, let`s say it this way, a little  bit outdated. wink_o.gif
