FPS of 5 only

by Rosey · in Technical Issues · 05/06/2006 (8:21 pm) · 3 replies

My computer:
video card :GeForce3 Ti2000 with 64M on-board memory.
CPU :Intel Pentium 4 CPU 1.60G HZ
Memory: 768M RAM
DirectX version: DirectX 9.0c

But the starter.fps demo(debug version) runs with FPS of only around 5, is that normal? does that mean to run a game developed with TGE, the user need a very good computer? what's the limit of configure to run this engine?


Thanks in advance!

I think you should be able to run it at a much better framerate
With your PC you would have had no problems in playing Tribes, the starter.fps is less demanding than Tribes was

Not sure what to suggest though sorry

What frame rate do you get with the release build? The debug builds always run much much slower than the release versions.

Debug version runs very slow on my PC which is a 2.8Ghz, 1gig ram, 6800GS. I get around 20-30fps where as in the release build I hit 100-200fps depending upon number of particle effects. Compile the release version and give that a go.

Yes, the release version is much faster! thanks for your help!
