Battlefield 1942 fps

BadOC · Oct 13, 2002

Wow, i dont know what to say. I have pretty decent specs, but i dont know why in bf1942, with 1024x768 res, i get really ****ty frames. Like im talking 50-70 when Noone is around, and like 15-30 when lots of **** is happening. I get major headaches when i play the game

Any one else having low fps issuES?

They say you should cut down on the sount from 44hz to 22hz and put the sound quality to low. It seems to help my framerates are ok its just the damn engine of the game is so choppy.

P.S. I think this thread belongs in the gaming forum.

Oh yeah I forgot I think there is something in the read me file about bf42 that says that sometimes the game acts funny on Oc'd machines. I run the game at 1024x768 at 200 draw distance with everything at full except shadows off sound 22hz and sound detail to low. I average 60 fps. It's a very fun game but im waiting for the patch until I start playing again. I'm hoping it will fix some things.

Granted, I haven't played this a whole lot, but it plays fine on my overclocked machine... you'll see a lot of negative comments concerning overclocking like the one in the read me you referred to as they are sort of "disclaimers" to weed out possible causes and support inquiries.

It is a great game, i just need more frames persecond to make it more fun because playing choppy sucks. Im going to try some of the tips mentioned here maybe that will help
Its way more fun than CS, i recommend you get it because this game rocks imo.
Thanks.

on the second page if the sound options click hardware acceleration to make the sound card do the sound work, it is off by defult.

My BF1942 did the same thing. What helped me out a lot was i took it off 32 bit depth and put it on 16bit. And I honestly think the picture looks better as well.

on the bot percentage on open game try to lower that i did that and i am running very well. also i run it with my gpu overclocked all the time and it works great.

The problem I get isnt with FPS...its just all servers seem to lag : /. I've only played the demo though.

i can't lower the bot percentage of the game

maybe i have to start a new game from scratch but i can't seem to lower that percentage of my existing campaign

i have to run it with low settings so try that.
