Medal of Honor: Airborne ... TripleHead ...

Post by **Paddy the Wak** » 29 Aug 2007, 23:56

I think the problem is to do with the Ironsights ...
I have now changed the ironsights for one weapon and it looks much better ... but I need to do some more investigating ...
All this loading and waiting through the intro is driving me insane ... :lol:

Anyway ... I think I am getting there ... 8)

yeah ive been trying some things too but i was going down the wrong road because my problem was instigated by the running and not the ironsights. thx paddy :)

@ Mach1.9pants ...
Sorry bud you lost me with this line ...[quote]So that means VERT- game is actually unplayable by me, another game ruined (until Racer_S gets there anyway)

It is not vert- if you fix it as shown above and so no need for Racer ....

For your 24" ... use a bind fov value of about 108 and forget the rest as it is not needed if you are not doing TripleHead.
Thanks for that. What I meant was VERT- games are, for me, unplayable (they make me feel ill!) until some genius like yourself or Racer_S fixes it. I will give the 24" FOV fix a go, hopefully no nausea :lol: And when my TH2G comes back from its sojourn to Hong Kong to be fixed I'll give the other hack a go
Keep up the good work

@ escrotumus
I'm nearly there ... I think I have fixed things and then I'll post my config for you to download and try ... :D

@ Mach1.9pants
Ah .. I understand ... :lol: ... let me know how you get on with your 24" ...

The switching back to the correct FOV after using ironsights seems for me to be fixed for all weapons apart from the colt ... without the need to sprint to reset the FOV ...
I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong with that colt ...
I'll look into it again tomorrow I need some sleep ...

Here are my configs ... I haven't included the the MOHASettings.ini as you may want to set your own resolution.

With these configs I only get 2 small problems ...
I have spent hours trying to solve them but no luck so far ...
As I say they are small problems ...

The first is when switching in Ironsights to the Colt ... the view gets a bit mixed up ... the way around this is to not switch to the Colt whilst in Ironsights ... :lol:

The second is after using a mounted weapon the FOV does not switch back to the correct FOV untill I run/sprint ... it is no big deal imho.

Give them a go ... let me know what you think ... MoHAConfig.rar

Make a backup of your own configs before you use these just incase these are no good for you !

[quote]mhm, I see there hardly a chance of good fps at SG with my 7900gx2.
:(

something like bioshock!

Yeah... I've got 7800GTX SLI and can't run Bioshock in SG with high settings which, IMHO, is mandatory for that game as it is so gorgeous.

I'm thinking of shelving it until November when, hopefully, the 9800's come out and I make the upgrade (I always skip a generation...).

I'll probably do the same for MOHA....

Which maximum resolution at bioshock did run smooth?

I am in the same position, deliberating if I should get now an 8800gtx or wait till the new release of the 9800 nvidia

To get playable frames, I'm playing at 1280x1024 with all options set to max.

Ranges between mid/high 20's at the worst (lots of action/water/etc.) to mid-60's in small rooms.

It is such a great looking game that I refuse to lower the graphic settings.

Assuming the 9800 series is a nice bump over the 8800's, I figure that since I'm now trying to play at 3840x1024 it is probably worth the wait....

Thanks Paddy. That helped a bit but I still have the lingering fov after running and ironsights. It is better though. EA and their non-supporting widescreen ways!@@#

Hi Paddy

I tried the settimgs you suggested and the game looks superb, the FOV is perfect in my opinion, the issues with Ironsights are mere glitches as far as I am concerned :D You have once again done us proud with this solution and I will pass this on to my contact at EA Games :D

Keep coming with these fixes and you never know what may happen as a result in the future (fingers crossed!) :wink:

Great job Paddy, looks like I might get the full version of this game after all! :)

Post by **Paddy the Wak** » 30 Aug 2007, 23:44

Glad they helped guys ... took hours to do ... :lol:
Still wish I could solve that nagging ironsights issue when switching to the Colt ...
Lets hope the full game isn't such a problem ...

Great job Paddy, looks like I might get the full version of this game after all! :)

No worries ... :D
Did you try the configs in the demo ... if so ... were they good for you ?

fuc847 · Post by **fuc847** » 05 Sep 2007, 07:19

OK ... if you rename the MOHADemo.exe to MOHA.exe it then uses the nVidia profile for the game and the fps go up quite a bit ... 8)

Screenshots with frame rates to compare with those above ...

what do u mean by the profile..? how does it increase fps..?

Post by **Paddy the Wak** » 05 Sep 2007, 08:59

In the nVidia settings config there are profiles for games ... nVidia's optimized settings for various games.
By renaming the demo in this way it uses the retail game profile ... there isn't a profile for the demo.

fuc847 · Post by **fuc847** » 05 Sep 2007, 18:46

are you talking about:

?

if so.. i think all it does is that it allows the user to set customized 3d settings for each game.. rather than optimizing anything...

Post by **Paddy the Wak** » 05 Sep 2007, 20:14

Your link isn't working for me ....

This setting is what makes the difference ... you of course need SLi ... sorry I didn't make that clear.

So I got it running, my framerate was stable around 30 with everything maxed.. 28-35.

A few things I noticed, first sometimes the screen goes nuts and flickers like mad when zoomed in with the Thomson.

Also anyone else get a weird almost flicker like like the mouse is being shaken just a tiny bit? I can't describe what it is, I know it's not bad framerate because FRAPS says 30... I definitely did not notice that w/o Triplehead.

PS: This test was done on the FULL version of the game, not the demo.

First Mission is the one in the Demo.
Unlike the Demo, if you die you don't have to re-earn all your ranks with your guns, you keep them (Didn't have much time to see if they carry over from mission to mission).

The game is pretty cool, hope we can get the TH2G working flawlessly soon, and especially online (doubtful, but maybe if we can play on non PB servers with friends that would be cool).

Post by **Paddy the Wak** » 06 Sep 2007, 07:27

Thanks for that .. I'll look at the full game as soon as it is out here in the UK.

URFIR3D · Post by **URFIR3D** » 06 Sep 2007, 12:05

About the flicker, it's not constant.. kind of comes and goes. You'll notice it real bad when you are parachuting down and trying to turn. Now that I think about it.. it might be a bit of framerate (I'll recheck) cause the blur effects when turning take their toll. I'll look more into it tonight when I'm back from work. Oh let me just say, cause I guess I didn't in my last post. Thank you very much for this.. I know it took a lot of work to do.. YOU RULE!

Post by **Paddy the Wak** » 06 Sep 2007, 23:31

I now have the full game ... I have used my configs from the demo and all seems (for me) to be as with the demo.
I only get the problems I outlined earlier ...

The first is when switching in Ironsights to the Colt ... the view gets a bit mixed up (flickering) ... the way around this is to not switch to the Colt whilst in Ironsights ... :D
This may also happen when switching to other weapons but I'm not too far into the game but at the moment I can't reproduce it with switching to any other weapon.

The second is after using a mounted weapon the FOV does not switch back to the correct FOV until I run/sprint ... it is no big deal imho ... sprint you fool sprint ! ... :lol:

There may be weapons in the full game that were not in the demo ... I'll check the configs to see if there are and try to adjust them for a better FOV too.

@ URFIR3D ...
I don't get the flickering at all when parachuting down and trying to turn ... only when switching in ironsights to the Colt.
Try turning off the blur see if you still get it.

BTW ... Thanks for saying thanks ... :lol: ... 8)
