0 fps when spwning, even in offline

[Lob12]

Well, I had some sound issues so I thought lets re-install the game.

I did it; now when I spwn in I have literally between 1 and 0 FPS... Can't do anything.

Even in offline mode I have 0 FPS. and the game takes a lot of time to actually load.

Not really sure what to do.

vista 32bit

3G of ram

gforce 8800 gtx

intel core 2quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz

Hi Mate,

Same here to a certain degree.

You might want to cross post this one onto this thread where all the FPS discussions are going on.

0? I wish you could see the task manager and see what is says during this time. I wonder if all 100% of the 4 cpus is busy or just 25% total. It sounds like something is consuming all the available cpu time.

[Lob12]

yes I had the fps counter on and it Was showing 0-1

and no, I was able to alt-tab and bring the manager on and I was around 30% with TS2 and internet on.

Does it work if you (1) restart (2) don't turn on TS or anything else?

[Lob12]

no it doesnt work, I've tried... I wonder if its not a Graphic Card driver thing

I'll re-install again tomorrow.

[AHWULF]

I would guess audio driver before graphic driver but it could be. XAudio creates threads to do its work and it's possible a driver bug is causing a near deadlock.

Test the GPU driver.

Make sure that in preferences you have best performance selected.

Make sure that in preferences you have best performance selected.

yes, a friend a me mine told me to do that yesterday, now I just tested and it seems to be working normally again

I'll have to play a bit more to be sure.

[GOPHUR]

OK so good news.

What resolution are you running?

[Lob12]

1600x1024x32

the game runs ok now, but I still have those sound issues...

when theres too much noise I wont hear myself reload/fire etc.

I think it may come from the fact that I dont have a real sound card...

before the last patch I was able to set the # of sounds to max in the in-game settings and I didnt had this problem.

im on "primary sound drivers", gonna try the other settings. now im on the middle one and it seems to be working better.
