Not bad ... but could be better ...
I have been playing with everything at max ...
SLI reports a few FPS more but the game then gets laggy ... it actually feels like it has about 20 FPS less ... so I have been just using one card.
Usually I don't like to watch FPS .... as long as the game plays reasonably smooth I'm happy.
So ... I haven't been paying too much attention to them ... however ... here is what I have noticed ...
When I have had fraps running I have seen them as low as 27 FPS but on average they look to be about 50FPS.
With Static lighting they were getting on for 200 FPS ... I did take a look at this just to see what it was like.
I have heard that once you go underground there is a big drop in frame rates when using the full dynamic lighting but I haven't gotten there yet.
I'm not very far into the game ...
I have spent most of my time tweaking or looking for tweaks for a better experience.
Like ...
Fixing the text for TripleHead ... two days of trial and error with the files !!
Reducing the size of the crosshair ... so glad about this one ... :D
Adding more items to buy in the traders shops ... (***)
Change the players height to be more real ... it seemed very low ... (***)
Change the weights of certain items in my inventory and added the ability to carry more ... (***)
Changed the names of the guns to real names ... found mod on the net.
Worked out how to add edge softening to the deferred lighting the game uses when the lighting is at max. (Normal anti-aliasing can only be used with Static lighting)
Played with the damage and weapons to try to make the game less frustrating ... (***)
(***) From what I have read on the net the patch adressed many issues that are not mentioned in the readme for the patch so some of the changes/tweaks I have made may no longer be needed.
That said ... unless Racer_S updates his FOV tool I won't be using the patch ... :wink:
I love the game .... I'm having great fun playing with it and it's files.
I like the ease at which things can be modded ... all be it ... it takes a lot of time to troll through all the various files.
Once everything has settled down regarding patches and hopefully an updated FOV fix ... and I have sorted the few small things I don't like I'll start playing the game properly ... :mrgreen:
