Hello all,

I have had killing floor for a few months with no problems, however a few days ago I have started having problems in the game where the fps will drop significantly and also all models in the game will still be moving but also spin around constantly, this will last for about 20 seconds and then return to normal but then reoccur a few minutes later the entire time I am playing.

This happens in both multiplayer and solo and I have tried lowering the graphics setting as low as they will go with no luck.

My system specs are:-
Graphics - GeForce 9800 GTX+
RAM - 2Gb
CPU - AMD Dual core 3500

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated :)

go to the red orchestra support section and try the sticky on top by lonyo about decreasing loadingtimes. Those settings might actually help you with your issue.

Make sure you harddisc got plenty of free space and is properly defragmented as well.

Thanks Zetsumei, it was the defrag that did the trick for me, didn't realise my hard drive was so fragmented took about 8 hours to defrag the thing lol

Played again today and the problem is back :(

Checked to see if hard disk maybe needed another defrag since that seemed to fix the problem for about a week, but it was fine. I guess changing the KillingFloor.ini file didn't work either, so I'm gonna put the original settings back on there.

If anyone has anymore suggestions please post them, it's a nightmare trying to play like this :(
