WOW game runs amazing (after new patch)

[Steveperrywho?]

hardware (Alienware m11x R3)
cpu: I7 2617
ram: 8 gigs
graphics: gt540m 2gig

before the patch i was getting 12 - 25 fps in pretty much any settings...

post patch i get 30+ fps on ultra even in firefights n such at 1280 x 760 (too lazy to change the rez to my native in the ini)

very pleased with the update.

I dont know whats going on, but my FPS and performance was better before todays patch. It was better before the other patch also. Seems like every time a patch comes out my FPS takes a hit. My rig should be more than capable on running everything smoothly on ultra (and I did before the last patch!!! ) Its a week old with the newist drivers and I built it solely just to run this game on ultra...

Ive heard losts of people saying theyve had a increase in performance and FPS, and it seems like theyre crossfire and ATI users. I havent really heard anything from the Nvidia crowd.

Im really hoping the game hasnt been fully optimized for Nvidia and later a patch or some new drivers will get this game running like it should. I dont understand why everything ran fine yesterday on ultra and today it barely runs it on high (default) in game.

Aren't you guys probably getting better performance just cause the FOV is lower?...

I have the same rig as you and I still get 15-30 in Pavlov on medium-high

EDIT: could you please show me a pic of your video settings?

Hm, that sucks
Here are my settings: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198010218775/screenshot/595822615457325740?tab=public (EDIT: But.. Light Shafts is normaly off... don't know why it was on^^)

Maybe it can help you.
Btw, maybe clean up your pc? defrag etc? Newest nvidia drivers?

@Nox: I don't think so. I always tried to change FOV before the patch. Had no huge difference.

fov has been at the same setting for me the whole time

For those of you still having problems, try deleting (or moving) your ROEngine.ini file and let the game make a fresh one. It helped me tremendously.

I second that. A lot of settings will not get over-written by the normal update process. Deleting this will ensure that all the changes made will trickle down correctly.

 

[PsYcHo126]

Hm.. I'll try that tomorrow. Maybe I'll get even more frames then
But now.. I need to sleep

 

[NoxNoctum]

So would the way to do that be to delete the file then have steam validate cache?

 

[Efstratios]

I deleted the UnrealEngine3 folder since the game seems to install a RedOrchestra2 folder with new configuration files.

Just delete the ROEngine.ini that's in your MyDocuments\RedOrchestra2 folder, and the game will auto-generate them when you launch it.

Seems like my fps depends a lot on the server. I get 30-35 fps in some. 24-28 fps in others. I dunnooo.

buddy suggested i delete my ROEngine file and let it rebuild a new one. helped me A LOT.

*edit...saw this above after posting...but i agree, it works!*

 

[Slecht]

Crossfire seems to work here :IS2: 2x 5870.
Already had good performance though.

 

[hockeywarrior]

My performance is generally higher with this patch, though I have noticed some weird stuttering that I never had before in previous versions. Overall all though, performance is slightly better.

Artillery stuttering is still a major issue, though, and changing my FX detail doesn't have any effect.

 

[crockett]

I seem to be getting better performance over all but I'm also getting a lot more crashes to desk top.

 

[Leweegibo]

Yep, gettin better FPS on ultra now than i was previously on high
i5 750 @ 2.8
4gb ram
6970

 

[Rrralphster]

Have you guys checked the amount of soundchannels?
I wasn't able to increase the amount in the game menu.
I could change it in the .ini though. I noticed arty "fps dips" were nearly gone.
Changed 2 sound settings, to be sure

Under [XAudio2.XAudio2Device] I changed MaxChannels to 64.
and under [ALAudio.ALAudioDevice] I also changed the MaxChannels to 64.

Downloading the patch right now.

in pavlovs house with a near full server I encountered persistent hitching and artillery hitching. FPS would be 30 but approx every 3/4 of a second it would hitch. Did not encounter this prior to the patch.

Great Work Tripwire!

Great Work Tripwire!

Great Work Tripwire!

There i said it, originally a nay sayer i slagged off the early release builds of RO2 Beta badly, needed to come on here & say that since the latest updates the game difference is like night & day, RO2 now stands head & shoulders above my first love RO Ostfront.

Thank you,

That is all.

stuttering regularly for me too - didn't do it prior to patch.
Will delete .ini and see if it helps.

edit: deleted ini but no change, stutters kinda like lag but no-one else is lagging and I only really get this when I encounter action...even just a one on one encounter.

My card is crap: GT8800 but I was getting 40 - 60 (no stutter) before this patch...go figure.

Time for a new card anyway
