Scenario:

In maps like truk and tc_hawaii, 20 enemy planes plus 15 ships in a harbor causes my frame rates to drop from 60fps to under 20 when I look toward or fly through the harbor(s).

My question is:

Is anyone flying through such a scenario with high frame rates? (60 fps) Or are you experiencing the same FPS sinkholes in certain maps/scenarios?

I'm trying to find a solution if there is one. I have tweaked tons of settings and also use some mods. I have 2 460s but am using 1 forced on.

I use a few JGSME mods:

00_Perfect_Map_Textures=1
00_ZloyPetrushkO_AAAmod_fast=2
00_EFFECTS_High=3
00_FMBPlus=4
00_SmallerFonts=5
00_6DOF_Tracker_2_0_sHr=6
00_Safe_DLLs=7

...and also use 2 mods outside that structure:

MODs folder contains:
Plutonium
OLC FPS Boost V2

Thanks in advance for your responses.

on my computer (MacBook Pro with Core Duo @ 2.0 GHz, 128 MB ATI Radeon X1600, 2 GB DDR2), the framerate on Truk falls to around 6 or 7 because of the objects present on the map. The areas with the harbors and docks appear to have low FPS because of the numerous docks and other objects. You notice (even in the mission editor) that as soon as you zoom out far enough for the docks to disappear, the framerate goes back up to normal (30-50 on my computer). I have talked to LS, who made the map, about cooperating on a new version with more accurate islands, reefs, and objects designed to help improve the framerate.

Hi,

Yes I can confirm this: fps drops to 20fps *even in the editor* in said "sinkhole" over the harbor in Truk. Its a great map...I hope it can be fixed/improved somehow. Also present in tc_hawaii which is another one of my favs.

Thought it was my settings...but apparently not as I have tried every possible tweak imaginable.
