In regards to the GFX, I think that maybe having MSI Afterburner running is causing my issue, but fark, I haven't had this many problems with a game since trying to make Call of Duty 1 work with my old ATi

That's your problem right there, I've heard others have had the same problem. Pretty much all monitoring programs (eg Fraps) are causing problems with BF3.

I'm running everything on high except ultra textures, SSAO instead of HBAO and NO motion blur (I hate this setting, is it just me?), gets me a solid 75+ fps :happy:

anything above 1680x1050 the cpu differences are close to none, tests with 2 core vs 8 core cpus showed 7fps difference, when going to 1080 its something like 3fps. tested with 16gb machines and high end GFX cards.

Sooo... since I'm still using a ancient 19" standard LCD with a res of 1280x1024, can I expect close to constant 60fps with my GTX 570 on a high/ultra setting?

That would be sweet.

LOL you are running half of it on Medium? No wonder its fast!

Can ya set it to 'high' by the default selector and see what it does?

Cause you seem a lot higher and there isn't major differences between the 5850 and 6950 aside from the usual performance gains, but not over 25fps surely.. hence maybe I really am CPU fked!

I've run FRAPS without a problem?

It performs the same no matter what for me and bogs in the same places (co-op) :)

on my setup, i ran the command render.drawfps 1 in battlefield to show FPS, i got an absolute minimum of 38fps and tops of 60fps. guess the 60fps is my monitors limit, i never see any games go above 60fps.

this was with everything ULTRA, MSAAx4, AFx16, FOV 90 motion blur maxed and Vsync off. running it on 1920x1080.

not too shabby i guess.

i don't know Ash you don't see as many moving objects in campaign as what you see in a 64 person server

Ye but the servers don't have as much going on in terms of map detail compared to the campaign.

Given my FPS is higher in online even with my moderately old card.

might have to run that command and jump into a 32 player server... i jumped into the singleplayer and it was running SMOOOOOTH at 1080p, everything on Ultra.

If you hold down Ctrl+Alt+S it shows your framerate.

I get higher FPS in single player FWIW.

No worries, will try and give it a blast tonight, do some SP and some MP.

....This kills me to admit it, but as much as I've been looking forward to this, I haven't really played it at all.. I loaded up the SP, played up until you shoot the RPG at the sniper (like in the initial trailers), and haven't played more.. GOTTA STOP PLAYING WOW AND PAYDAY

    • oh they were with that motor, you need to remove the engine to change the spark plugs (don't have to, but it does make it easier)
    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
