My squad recently switched to UP3.0 and I hate it with a passion. when i was running hsfx my game ran like it should but now it runs like crap and i got so fed up with it I reformatted to see if that would help. do you know any specific settings I can tweak to try and get my fps a little bit higher when explosions/smoke/fire happen?
Hi, Snook
Many things effect FPS, but most of them only slightly.
However, Anti-aliasing has a huge effect on it. Land, sky, and sea textures also have a big impact on FPS in systems that are challenged for one reason or another. (Distance detail or the range at which distant details become clear, called Anisotropic Filtering)
Another thing to consider is that UltraPack has some nice features to help you. I would recommend asking for help in this thread and at UltraPack website.
