UK_Widowmaker 571 Posted April 14, 2009 Hmm.... Not changed any settings at all, FPS still a healthy 45-55..... but the game has started to get jerky (when pulling around in a tight circle especially) Only a fraction of a second..but maybe 4-5 times doing a 360. Anybody got any idea's please? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anybody got any idea's please? Try disabling the Vertex and/or Index buffer. Whe I first installed BHaH I was getting great framerates, but was getting the jerkiness you described. I poked around on the old SoH forums and http://www.polovski.com/ and found a suggestion Polovski made about trying to disable both buffers to eleiminate the jerkiness. Worked for me. Dropped my framerates a bit, but its now smooth. So far I've got both buffers disabled..haven't had time to see if I only need to disable one of them...

sitting_duck 3 Posted April 17, 2009 Seem to remember a couple posts that said the vertex buffers and index buffers should be disabled for ati cards,,,and the write only buffers are for both. but i guess if it works,,,thats whats important, remeber seeing a post that to some extent explaind all those settings, and what they actually do. If anyone should happen across it would appreciate them posting a link. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Absolutely correct Sittingduck..it was the write only buffers which I needed to disable (Nvidia) I disabled the Vertex and Index buffers first..and the display went mad!.... Sorted now though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Macklroy 2 Posted April 17, 2009 Where are these options? Vertex / index buffers. Video card settings or in game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sitting_duck 3 Posted April 17, 2009 (edited) http://www.combatfs.com/index.php?&loc...page=cfs3_tweak this is one site on them....its for cfs3, but the setting appliy to off,,,just be sure to run the config in your off folder,,,not the one in your cfs3 folder......pol has another one (his faq site), dont have the url handy and there is another thread with some different ideas on settings, when i find it i will post it Edited April 17, 2009 by sitting_duck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Macklroy 2 Posted April 17, 2009 Nevermind i finally figured it out. Going into cfs3 config I never noticed the word 'window' right above the safe mode check box. Found all the cool goodies under that pull down option. TY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wels 2 Posted April 17, 2009 Hello, good to see it works UKWidowmaker ! But there may be another explanation i found here: http://www.com-central.net/index.php?name=...topic&t=118 Too fast graphic cards can cause the sim to stutter, spoiling smooth movement with a sudden stop, and then moving on. According to this manual this might be due to the "rest" of the computer, which is slower than the graphic card, and has to catch up with the fast card, pumping data too slowly. This can be changed in the CFS3.xml file, setting minimal fps to 30, rather than the default 0. But when it already works Greetings, Catfish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sitting_duck 3 Posted April 18, 2009 lol..yeah,,thats the one i meant to put up,,,i hate the combatfs one,,,,, and there is this one too,,,but a few settings are different.....no idea which one is "the best", if there is even such a thing http://www.overflandersfields.com/Tips.htm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BirdDogICT 3 Posted April 20, 2009 But there may be another explanation i found here: http://www.com-central.net/index.php?name=...topic&t=118 Catfish Sitting Duck & Wels, Thanks for the above link. Much better than the combatfs tweak guide. Looks like the site http://www.combatfs.com/index.php?loc=tweak&page=index may be down, anyway. Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
