[Guide] Increse FPS drastically on LCD monitor

[gangstas]

To increase the fps alot for all LCD monitors, start the game hit "ctrl+tilde (the console button for all games)", change device and turn vertical sync on. This will increase your fps upp to 40 more than it already was.

how do you open this interface ? control+??... were on the keyboard
-Thanks, Ealge

Ctrl+~ didn't bring up the console for me. Do you need to start the game in console mode like from the shortcut?

[gangstas]

oh, nvm. they remowed the ctrl + option.... should have posted it earlier, well if anyone find a work around to turn on vertical sync post it here

You should be able to turn vsync through your graphics card's controls.

(CCC for ATI, NvCP for nvidia)

Could you guys be a little more specific please, my FPS is doing my head in..

[steverenolds]

Rep for first person to figure out how to turn on vert sync, I'm running about 12 fps average.

[whitekidney]

vertical syncrate, aint that some shit to prevent your graphics card from overheating?
if thats why, you should turn it off.

Fav'd, +Rep when the how-to and risks are released.

Download Rivatuner, they have a bundled utility "D3d Overrider" that starts with windows and lets you override settings (vsync) so you *should* be able to override AOC's vsync. I'll verify this later *EDIT* Ok, I tried this and turned on the game and it appears to be working. Thanks OP

RivaTuner v2.09 download from Guru3D.com

You'll have to "add profile" and select AgeofConan.exe and voila!




Or, if you don't want to install rivatuner, you can also use Nvidia control panel if you have an Nvidia card

[RaZZal]

Doesn't let me open D3D overider?

[nosleep]

check and see if it's in your system tray, I had to look there to adjust settings. Right click it.

[AfterMidnight]

I managed to turn it on, but no big difference for me sadly.

[Jadell]

Same no difference between off and on. AFAIK, the vertical sync in game can't be overridden or something. That's what I have been reading in the AOC tech forum.

[steverenolds]

Thats ****ing stupid, why would they make it so you can't v sync?
