Great Preformance from New Nvidia Drivers
 

Hi, for those of you using an older PC. that is still running Windows 7 32-bit system, I may have good news for you. I just downloaded the new 285.62 Nvidia Drivers System for 32 bit Windows7 and wow!, what an improvement. I went from barely playible at 12 to 15 frames a sec. to over 75fps. without vsync. and maxed out at 60 fps. with vsync enabled. That is with everything set on Max./High....:)......No more shuttering ....it is now truely a great game as witnessed by others with a 64 bit high end system....my system is Intel Quad2 core Q 9450 2.66 gigs CPU, 4 gigs ram. and a Nvidia Geforce GTX 285 1 gig. video card. I thought I would pass this along to other users of a 32 bit windows 7 system....and of course I have the latest patch V1.05.15950 of COD....good luck.......

how do you get over 100fps?

i have intel i5 3.2ghz

nvidia gtx 550 ti (recently overclocked to 1000mhz)

8g ram

direct x 11

and its still lagging, i installed the patch and still with problems

why!!?

Context, high fps are possible if in a single aircraft over water at low res. FPS only mean something if there is a reference point used, a benchmark like black death, even then graphics settings and state of the installation will have an effect on final figures.

high FPS means nothing....smoothness is more important, which means smaller difference between lowest and highest FPS....and how constant is FPS (ofcourse FPS avg shouldnt be below 40).....this you can get with optimised sim....which is not the case here...

I give it a try! I have the same system specs like you! But anyway i ordered an gtx560 Ti with 2 gb!
At least its`s good playable,but I disabled the shadows to make it a little bit smoother with track IR. The rest varies from low (buildings/trees) to high (the rest). But I`m far away from 125 fps!!!!:cool:

Salut,

Rince!

what is the best settings for me?

right now i have everything set to high except buildings on medium and no grass

amd dual core 5400+
6 gb ram
gtx 460se 1gb vid card
Win 7 ultimate 64 bit

My god... My system is AMD 4x3.1Ghz, 4Go RAM, Geforce GTX460 1Go.
And I'm far from your FPS (with medium settings), + I have shuttering and game crash all the time (except today but I dont know how I did that.........).

Have you some tips to improve my performances?

I honestly think that lowering resolution and settings can at the current state of the sim can only take you so far. What the best settings are for each simmer is best determined by adjusting settings and observing the impact, everyone's system is a bit different, not only due to system specs, but also due to what else might be running in the background, how cluttered your HDD is with age old stuff and so on.
At times, maybe every year or every other year a complete, clean reinstall of the OS solves many problems just like that.

But most importantly keep in mind that the graphics engine is being reworked right now, so untill that is completed and released in a patch I would not worry too much about desperately trying to tweak performance. I am pretty relaxed about the issue, sitting back and waiting what the anounced 50% performance increase after the reworked engine will look like.

Try lowering some settings, raising others, for instance change forest, building detail, building amount to low, this has helped me out alot, the sim still looks great too. Raise texture's to high, model detail high, land shading high, Also you could try overclocking your cpu and gpu, clearing your cache, adding more ram and turning off your page file(8gb ram only), turn off windows aero theme

I've done all of that (I'm playing 1366x768 btw).
I'm cleaning up all hard disks and installing Seven 64 (until now I had x32, so it'll be better for my 4G RAM). And I got to learn somewhere how to overclock ;-) Have you any links, which explains how to do this correctly without risks?

win 7 64 bit will help alot, (1360x768 ) here, I use msi afterburner for overclocking gpu, cpu is done through asus motheboard bios

be careful trying to overclock.I burnt a few sticks of ram that way.I thought i knew what i was doing from some info i got from researching how to overclock pc. I researched for days before i did it and honestly if u have never done it before and dont have a spare system or parts i would not try it.Wait for the patch before you do anything rash.

What nvidia drivers for win 7 64 bit can anyone recommend? I'm probably using the ones a few releases back, just always leery to keep running newer drivers, some games have serious issues with them.
