[DRuG]Racer Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 well this is a prob i have i got a slow pc my game runs at 30 fps in single player but in mta it runs 12 i have .avrage of 8-9 wen im in a full sever its 5-7 will this be fixed ?
Kent747 Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 we always do the best we can in trying to keep the game running smoothly, unfortunately MTA puts quite a strain on the engine... so there is only so much we can do.
happyrock Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 is blue more of a strain on the engine then mta.04? because if it is won't all these addons make it worst?
Kent747 Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 it can be... you have to be careful when you write one.... an addon can be as complex as you decide.... so keep that in mind when you write one... if you are running a lot of loops then things will bog down, We'll cover this when we release the SDK
janipewter Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 ah well my game runs close to 100fps at 1024x768x32 in single player, and between 15 and 60fps at 800x600x32 in a moderately full mta server so should i be ok?
Kent747 Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 i imagine so.... there are also some methods that MTA is forcing, one bieng hte framelimiter, (sorry guys) this will actually be beneficial for everyone,as it provides a good way to test the stress of your addons w/ BLUE, as well as verifying that the physics interractions are more in sync w/ other players (thus smoother movement, better crashing, racing etc)..
Slothman Posted September 7, 2004 Posted September 7, 2004 HELL YEAH! forcing the frame limiter on is brilliant, theres no reason richer people should be able to run/shoot faster. (cause they can afford better systems) glad to hear that
janipewter Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 what will the frame limiter limit the frame rate to?
orappa Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 what will the frame limiter limit the frame rate to? 30 fps, I think.
Slothman Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 janipewter, the frame limiter is built into gta3 and VC, it limits it to 30 fps. without the frame limiter, a powerful system actually makes the game's speed faster.
Oli Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 very happy to hear that frame limiter thing is forced now, thats awesom
Moderators HAZJ Posted September 8, 2004 Moderators Posted September 8, 2004 (edited) wow, that did me though on my system: AMD Athlon XP 2800+ 1GB ddr33 Kingston dual chan 2 HHD: Segeate Barracuda ATA100 7200RPM 80GB each one ATI Radeon 9600 Pro 256MB DDR AGP8x Sound Blaster Audigy 2 What do you think?, btw i have other pc which is best than this Edited September 8, 2004 by Guest
orappa Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 No problems at all there. If it's more than 1.2GHz, it should be ok.
Guest Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 I find the ingame frame limiter actually makes my game jerk thats why its off for me and always has been. Any chance of you guys making a better one? if thats possible to include with mta:blue.
TempEcho Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 I think the frame limiter is a great idea , if it makes your game jerky , then try updating your grapic drivers and sound card drivers Also , try to install unofficial drivers , they usualy are better , or install the 1.1 patch Mr.Xanni
Brophy Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 yep, then u dont get ppl running around u at like 30mph , hehe

janipewter Posted September 12, 2004 Posted September 12, 2004 No problems at all there. If it's more than 1.2GHz, it should be ok. few thats ok, i have a 2.8ghz. 30fps is smart - thats i think the max framerate the human eye can see.
orappa Posted September 12, 2004 Posted September 12, 2004 Anything above 25fps is perceived as "smooth". There's no maximum rate that the eye can see.
SM xenex Posted September 12, 2004 Posted September 12, 2004 There's no maximum rate that the eye can see. Acctually there is,ill try and get a link to where it says the amount, i dunno what it is but i can say for sure there is a limit.

TempEcho Posted September 12, 2004 Posted September 12, 2004 Mad Boy , I can host your siggy on my server , ill gurantee you 99% uptime Mr.Xanni
MAD_BOY Posted September 12, 2004 Posted September 12, 2004 the problem is, i also have 2 sites that'll go up soon (been working on them, that's why their down ) now, lets get back on topic
TempEcho Posted September 12, 2004 Posted September 12, 2004 okay , maybe this will awnser your questions: http://www.100fps.com/how_many_frames_c ... ns_see.htm
orappa Posted September 12, 2004 Posted September 12, 2004 The link didn't actually answer the question: So what is "Enough fps"? I don't know, because nobody went there so far. Maybe 120fps is enough, maybe you will get headaches after 3 hours. Seeing framewise is simply not the way how the eye\brain system works. It works with a continuous flow of light\information. (Similar to the effects of cameras' flashlights ("red eyes"): flashing is simply not the way how we see). So there are still questions. Maybe you need as much as 4000fps, maybe less, maybe more.
