martin_hucke 1 Posted April 24, 2002 ok.. well i mean about OFP running slow not.. THAT slow.. but slower than a lot of other games i have. Ive played OFP since June 22 LOL... (aniversary of OFP) and ive realized OFP is really slow... not mentioning i dont have any latest upgrade.. i always have em... right now i have 1.40 i have a Duron 800mhz Kt-7 Raid MoBo 256mb Ram SdRam GeForce3 Ti200 SBLive 5.1! BTW.. i had .. 3 months ago a VooDoo3 2000 and i can barely see the difference between the voodoo one and the gf3.. im running at 1024 x 768 x 32 (and the settings that opflashpreferences.exe assigns to my CPU benchmark) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
r71 0 Posted April 24, 2002 I have a 600 from gateway and 256 ram right now and the game runs good for me. I had the TNT2 and went to the GF3 and it was a major help. I make most of my games at around 1800 veiw distance also. Maybe its time to clean up your system. I am about to jump to a 2.4 P4 with 1024 ram pc 800 so I cant wait to see what that does for me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
martin_hucke 1 Posted April 25, 2002 yeah i know that "setviewdistance" helps a lot... but an example: a 8 tanks fight runs slow to me.. or... 6 choppers flying really slow... and ive formatted my pc since.. like... 1 month so i think it is ok Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wreck-It 0 Posted April 25, 2002 Just click on the banner in my sig and follow thrue with the tweak guides. Also note that a duron is a shitty processor. Buy a real T-bird or XP CPU and you will notice a 10fold performance increase. If you are running ME, XP or Win2K, try installing 98SE. Feel the difference! The best bet for performance is the smallest OS possible, no crap in the tray bar and a good tweaking session. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UKPUSHER 0 Posted April 25, 2002 Mines well smooth even when i host for 16 ppl :o) wasnt on a GF2MX though ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
martin_hucke 1 Posted April 25, 2002 well... my mobo has a 200mhz processor bus, so i can only have DURON, T-BIRD and ATHLON (uuntil 1.4ghz) the thing is that.. i could have 128mb ram more and get a athlon 1.4 ghz but.. i need better school grades... so.. thats the deal with my dad.. no good grades... no better pc... or.. hella bad grades... no tv , no outgoing, no party's, no money for girlfriend, and .... *kick me where it hurts* NO PC! lol! im in love of Win Xp... so.. i wont install W98SE just for OFP!

zxc 0 Posted April 26, 2002 LT_Damage I agree 100%, it's mad to run the game at 16 bits. The game will run better at 32 and if u really need to run the game at 16, well u should consider to upgrade ur pc then (it would be a waste). And to reply to UKPUSHER, nobody runs the game at 16 bits! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UKPUSHER 0 Posted April 26, 2002 HAHHAHH ............. If u seriously played this game online u would know to be running it at 16 bit no matter how powerful the CPU and graphics card . However in SP mode you peeps will be fine on 32 Bit . Come Drop by our [Pro] Dedicated Public Servers on 80.195.89.5 PORT :2234 and try gettin 16 Infantry kills on those resolutions and colour depths , u trippin .......... every serious online player we know is at 16 Bit .
