Performance problem?

Who thinks he's got a performance problem with 2.1d?

If not say no and post your processor, ram, gfx card, ut2004 version

If yes, say yes and proc, ram, gfx card, ut2004 version

yes, 2.1x is much lower fps than 2.0

amd 2200+
512 ddr something
radeon 9700 pro

50 fps on DM-Antalus
15 fps on smallcube and wastelands
25 fps on cube ( goes to 15 occasionly )

2.1x is much slower than 2.0 for me too. Haven't noticed 2.1d being slower than previous 2.1s but I haven't really played it enough yet.

1.4ghz athlon
512mb ram
ATi 8500le

(top of the range! ahem)

edit: ut2004 version = 3270

it obviously seems to be the radeon that causes the problem, what i expected tbh

hm!

Why would you expect that?

Those of you having this slow down for the DB 2.1 series I assume this happens during botmatchs too. It seems related to ATI radeons.

Please do this for me.

1. Get your FPS in a DB botchmatch. Quit the game.

2. Go to windows explorer and navigate to UT2004/Deathball/textures and delete your 2K4Menus.utx file.
Don't close windows explorer.

3. Get your FPS in a DB botchmatch again. Quit the game.

4. Go back to windows explorer and select Edit/"undo delete"

Report back here your relative FPS.

Thanks !

A bot match with bots in it? If so wouldn't that make it more CPU dependent?

edit: botchmatch? Is that an intentional typo? ^^

edit 2: With 5 bots db-cube
Before: 40
After: 43

I spawned at a different place the second time so I'd imagine that accounts for the variation.

With no bots I get 85 constantly (vsync) but playing online it really chugs (around 20).

What was you FPS with such a botmatch in 2.0? :>

Post by **The_One** » 04-09-2004 21:23

I'm CPU limited with bots so it was around the same afaik, I'd have to play online to see an effect. I don't think online 2.0 games are too easy to come by.

Someone else post there results, jeez. >.<

85 is pretty good for a non botmatch.

What do you get when you join an empty server online with 2.1?

Post by **The_One** » 04-09-2004 21:30

76-77

Post by **DavidM** » 04-09-2004 21:31

hm why you saying 2.1 is much slower than 2.0?

Post by **The_One** » 04-09-2004 21:33

Because playing online I used to get around 40-50, now it's in the 15-20s.

mpratt · Post by **mpratt** » 04-09-2004 21:35

I just tested with 2.1d. I get 65 on a botmatch and in an empty server online I get 70.

So Im 5 fps high online.

I have a 2.0 gig cpu and 1000 ram.

David what you get?
