Hey all do you have an old PC, and low FPS ? Than use this Settings in the 2 Picture's. Unbelivable but i got +70FPS in Counter Strike Source and +20 FPS in GTA 4. Try it out and reply . *edit* forgot to say.. You have to go in the NVIDIA Control Panel, by clicking right mouse and "nvidia control panel".
you can do that better on the program page, specific for your game, not in common settings for all applications/games. and as not everybody speaks german, its hard to take over the settings in their english named settings which are in a totally different sorted order on their machine. and all settings are available from within the game or console, if ppl use a specific config, that requires something thats turned off, you might crash your game. simply put: using this shows just the fail to configure your game correct.
nah i use in the game all on *high and nothing crashes. And I couldn't know that there is a different order ... i thought its same just with other names, and they can see which number it have. But... why i got then +70 FPS more in CSS when CSS says how many cpu and gpu will be used.. "and all settings are available from within the game or console" so if I use everything on "low" in my game there is nothing different with my FPS.
some will need additional tweaking from the console yes, and those need to be set in the autoexec.cfg cos some wont be autosaved in config.cfg. There are a lot of FPS configs out there which do just that...
Yes but movie configs are just holding the ingame content very deep. The Settings in the Panel are for all games and the general setting. If you have a game with a bad config but a high nvidia setting ..thats dumb. Thats like a battery with 2 - or 2 +.
dont think you get it. you make the situation reversed: you config the game BADLY, with HIGH settings, and then say the videocard drivers to not support it for the game (or regarding your first post: ALL GAMES). Where lies the problem then?.... indeed settings within the game. and on the Source Engine (CSS, TF2 etc) ALL can be enabled/disabled or set to a certain level by either the options video advanced tab, or console commands. If you set the settings for the game higher than the videocard allows, you get artifacts, problems with the game cos the engine has send out the data for the expected configuration. as those settings are HIGHER, things will be trown out the window.... at some point your game will hang, just show bad image or artifacts or worse. And I was NOT talking bout movie configs, those you can use to make a recording looking better by playback of a demo. I'm talking bout configurable FPS configs, like Quantums Little config: http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/s ... ?t=1115246 yes, he has ALSO a movie config, but thats SEPARATE of the FPS config. You dont HAVE to use the config, but you CAN read thru it and use the knowledge to tweak the game on your own.
I know those movie configs and FPS config. I used them already. But the FPS config gave me a too bad optic. And betwen my Graphic Card have 1 GB .. so i don thing the settings are too high, agree me :? -.- So I dont understand you ... why you thing it won't work for every game if you put it on low settings ?
the oly solution is DON'T mess with your config of your pc if you aren't educated for it specialist or programmer i know a lot of ppl who messes with there config with as result =====> they may go to a specialist or format and reinstal everything SO DON'T MESS WITH IT IF YOU HAVE TO LOOK FOR TUTORIALS AND DON'T HAVE ANYONE NEAR WHO KNOWS SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i never messed with my config and i have around 150fps average on every map the only thing you dou is overclocking/cheating you grafic card with as resolt==> faster breakdown of your grafic card
incomparable, I dont know which settings that are, cant read german. so I really dont know which settings are influenced. also, I dont know what your defaults where of your card....
So I thought it's the same order in german + other languages and then you could see 1st = 1st on your panel etc. but it seems its not so :|. So forgott this thread ^^.
