CoD 8800 Fix.

Post by Dr. kitteny berk »

Well, Seems to be a fairly common issue with 8800s and CoD/UO that people get horrible framerates/stutter.


Anyway, seems to be fairly easy to fix.

Open cod (in my case, cod:uo MP)

Go to the Performance settings

Set Dynamic Lights to None.

Enjoy a Reasonable framerate.

There is nothing wrong with my graphics card, it simply despises my power supply :lol:

a-HA.

Finally got my cod working right now. (same thing was hurting quakewars)
"Sponge on the Community forums posted as follows

Due to a driver bug in all versions of the NVidia drivers, ET:QW may be taking a big hit in FPS. In order to workaround this, go into your NVidia Control Panel, under 3D Options, and set "Multi Display Performance Mode" to "Single Display Performance Mode."

On an 8800GTX, this brought the FPS from 30 to 60+. I don't personally have an NVidia card, so I'm unsure as to the side-effects, but this will help ET:QW."

here is a screenshot on where to fix this problem.
