Firefall

Post by Gimpylung »

This one could be good, it will be free to play with the usual secondary revenue streams it seems. Theres a beta on the way and I've signed up for it.

They've already acknowledged that there shouldn't be any problem incorporating Eyefinity support, hopefully that means all superwide formats.

It looks good, I wish it was offline. I will definitely try it out though.

Offline is hard to do, as it's designed to be an MMOFPS. ;)

It does look pretty cool, and I'm all for free co-op games.

Well, what I mean is I wish it wasn't an MMOFPS. :)

Firefall Looks awesome! The Graphics are Hardcore! But my 7970 CF Setup goes about 30-50 FPS in Ultra High at 4800*900

Oh yeah, there are still some Problems with the Resolution!

So here's a trick! Trying it out right now.



Here you go:

Type %localappdata% in your start search bar, open the Red 5 Studios folder, then Firefall. Open the settings.con file with notepad and look for:
Fullscreen resolution settings:

SetSave rd.fullscreenHeight "1080" - Set these numbers to your preferred resolution
SetSave rd.fullscreenRefresh "60"
SetSave rd.fullscreenWidth "1920"




Yes! It Works! 5760*1080 no problem! 6048*1080 Bezel correcte also works fine!

I just got into the Beta and I didn't have to force the resolution, but I did find it right where you said Haldi, appreciate it. The odd thing is that the game games my res is 1280x800 but on fraps it shows 5760x1080 and the config file reflects that resolution, I did have to force my install so that might have something to do with it. With the predefined Ultra settings I am sporting 32 to 40 fps with adaptive vsync forced in my NVCP, my gpu load is only 55 to 68% between both my 580's. Maybe when they get this game more optimized it will give me better fps. Thanks again for the info Haldi.

nah, guess they have some problems with SLI (tri?)

Even on my 79790CF setupt i only get around 70-85% GPU Load (when i'm in a village!) and 30-45 FPS in Ultra settings !

Well, putting Firefall on SSD didn't make any improvement! Right now gonna try out RAMDISK and Single GPU!

On AMD systems get CAP 12.4! Includes Firefall! Didn't make a big improvement for me! but its' working! And now when i OC GPU's in Crossfire i can see the FPS go up!

btw Memo to Myself:
Edit: Here's a nice command that doesn't increase your performance, but increases your first person FOV by 15: camera.firstpersonfovoffset 15

How do you guys get the aspect ratio right? It displays just fine on all 3 monitors and the HUD looks great but everything else is all stretched out and zoomed in, yet in the settings it says the resolution is correct with my bezel correction. It says my aspect ratio is 2614:525 and a res of 5228x1050.

As far as I can tell they will be fixing multi-monitor support in next patch.

Tried Firefall out on their open beta weekend. First class multimonitor support. Recognized resolution and displayed an aspect ratio of 3x16:10, FOV was correct, HUD was centered.

Two minor issues, the HUD is customizeable but the range to move things is only in the center screen. And currently the loading screen only displays on center screen, you see the world on the outer screens.
