Topic: Space is AWSOME! The game is AWSOME! But...

In space, the red lasers look speckled with yellow and orange, with the absence of pure red. The explosions look more like "poof"s than "ka-booms!". Everything also looks jaggedy and it runs choppy. The fighter control is...well...odd...

In BF2142 vanilla, I am able to play on all high settings, with no AA and 800x600 with 85hz. But in game, space or ground, its choppy.

I have a little over 1 gig of RAM and I have a GeForce 7600GS. Whats going on?

Thanks for the help! And technically helping you too...so...your welcome big_smile

Gonna go play now! big_smile big_smile big_smile

Re: Space is AWSOME! The game is AWSOME! But...

We found out what is causing the lags. It was a FSDev sabotaging the lightmaps who will be punished accordingly. When we interrogated him he said he had been planning the coup for years so he will receive capital punishment.

Re: Space is AWSOME! The game is AWSOME! But...

was there really a sabotage? For some reason, everything is very very choppy. Extremely choppy. Even in space...

And what I mean by the odd controls of the ships is...well...ok, let me explain...

I am (and many other pilots...probably) used to the handling of flight sims/bf2 jets. X-Axis is roll, Z-Axis is throttle (I have no problem with that), rudder is...well, rudder (when I use this, it rolls and pitches at the same time) and Y-Axis for pitch (and when I pitch it moves to fast and get precisely aim; it also rolls and turns and stuff) When I try to go neutral, it tends to dip down and not want to go straight. Its really hard to explain, but for some reason the handling is very unusual.

And, when I am firing...the lasers dont want to show up...like once in a while, I will be able to see the muzzle flash of the laser cannon, and see the laser zip forward, but usually I just see dots of the laser...well, they are more like elongated dots.

Hope that helps. Thanks!

Re: Space is AWSOME! The game is AWSOME! But...

set your settings at 2x AA, and turn textures up and shadows down, or off. Helped me.
Im using 6800gt.

Do..or do not, there is no try !
