Wabbit 0 Posted October 18, 2006 I really tried to find the answer by scanning past posts, but nothing seems to fit my circumstances... This is my config: P4 2.53 Ghz CPU (no hyper threading) 1 GB Dual Channel DDR Asus Motherboard ATI 9800 video card OFP GOTY with 1.96 patch When I run the OFP Preferences program, I choose Autodetect and stay with those settings. I have "-nosplash -nomap" (I have no idea what nomap does) in the shortcut. But when I try to play the game, the video (and game itself) seems to stutter and pause for a second or two fairly often, in cutscenes and in actual play.

somebloke 0 Posted October 18, 2006 Go into options, put the terrain detail to low or very low, and reduce the view distance. Also Nomap is a handy thing for getting round the addon limit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heatseeker 0 Posted October 19, 2006 Yep, terrain set to low. Also by default texture resolutions are maxed out (behiond what they can be set even), try to scale down. One thing that kills performance for me is object shadows, try to turn these off and tell us how it goes . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wabbit 0 Posted October 19, 2006 You're right, the autodetect maxed the terrain out. I set the terrain to normal, but increased the frame rate (not sure if this is correct, as I understand it, higher frame rate = better detail?). Just lowering the terrain detail seems to have fixed the problem. It's odd, because my current machine, especially the video card, is SO much more powerful than the machine I had when the game came out. I would have expected that it should run fine maxed out... Thanks for the help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fasad 1 Posted October 20, 2006 OFP is very easy on your graphics card but gives your CPU a real work out. I use a 9600xt and have found that playing with 1600x1200 has almost no impact on frame rate when compared to say 1024x768. This is good, a higher resolution is very practical in OFP.

Placebo 29 Posted October 23, 2006 For best image quality you should set the FPS slider to the lowest number because otherwise it will start downgrading the graphics to try to achieve the framerate you request which means you get nasty LODs and popup.
