dusand 0 Posted February 27, 2005 I hope it will be ok for Flashpoint. Â Try for 1GB of RAM - big difference for OFPR! You say BIG difference? I plan to add another 512 MB when I get some money for it. I think 512 is a good start. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rule of thumb: OFP CWC: 256MB to 512MB RAM = BIG Difference OFP Resistance: 512MB to 1024MB RAM = BIG Difference Shovel some snow to earn the extra money!

hardrock 1 Posted March 11, 2005 Just wanted to add something concerning performance in OFP. My sytem specs look as following: AMD Athlon64 3000+ 1GB Ram Sapphire Radeon 9800Pro 128mb asus k7v se deluxe mb I got a very good tip lately (thx Balschoiw!). Before OFP wasn't running _too_ well on my computer, without dxdll enabled and medium settings/~2000 view distance. Now this excellent guy gave me the tip to use the Omega drivers (http://www.omegadrivers.net) for the ATI and to set my AGP Aperture Size lower (I knew about this but somehow was too ignorant to do it earlier...), so I set it at 4x. Doing these two things, I noticed a huge performance increase! OFP, whose earlier average fps rate was around 20-25, is now running with between 40 and 120 fps in average missions with dxdll fully enabled! I just wanted to share my excitement with others, maybe there are other people in a similar situation as I was before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scruffy 22 Posted March 11, 2005 Hi Hardrock, I have got a similar system and would like to try this, but what did you change here? [...] and to set my AGP Aperture Size lower (I knew about this but somehow was too ignorant to do it earlier...), so I set it at 4x. [...] If you lowered AGP Aperture Size it would be 64MB or something like that. Or did you lower your AGP rate from 8x to 4x? Would be nice if you could correct this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Cobra Posted March 25, 2005 Sorry for bringing this topic up again.. Hope it doesn't count as spamming  Well anyway... I have been thinkin that maybe my RAM can be the problem with my whole computer... I read somewhere that WinXP can be "driven" on 128mb RAM, but that can make the computer slow and that's the case with our computer. After I type my password in it takes about 6 minutes before I can start using the computer (!)... Do you think i need more ram? BTW; I have the slowest ram of them all SDRAM PC133  Avon must be laughing Feel free keep voting Sorry for my bad english Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy Mc 0 Posted March 25, 2005 Unfortunately for me....even with my setup: Intel Pentium 4 3.2Ghz @ 3.5Ghz 1Gb Cosair DDR 400 Geforce 6800GT I only reach similiar performance that I did with my old: Intel Pentium 4 2Ghz 768Mb RAM Geforce 4 ( 4600 Ti ) I can only assume it isn't really taking advantage of my more modern hardware...still its playable -- and I'm gonna keep searching for tweaking suggestions... Â EDIT: I'll try lower my Aperture size in the BIOS ( as mentioned above..) -- hope this helps further Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dabitup 0 Posted March 25, 2005 I run a 1.3, but I just ordered new parts. Me and my dad are building a WHOLE new PC. I'm gonna be using a AMD 64bit 2.0 by next wednesday! *thanks god* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Cobra Posted March 25, 2005 Well, actually I think that a 64-bit processor is only waste of money. It wont be faster 'cause most programs are made for 32-bit processor. The price-difference is big between 32-bit and 64-bit but performance-difference is not that big. Wait 3-4 years and buy a 64-bit then... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, you've got me beat on the processor.... I'm running Win 98SE on a PII 400Mhz... I think I've got the slowest processor here so far. I've got you beat on RAM @ 512MB PC100, 128MB ATI Radeon 8500, running at 2X AGP and an old Aureal Vortex 2 soundcard, tho.....
