HIGH FPS in LOCKON!

[=SCoRPioN=]

I'M POSTING THIS MESSAGE ON SEVERAL FORUMS

YOU CAN INCREASE LOCK ON FRAMERATE BY 30-100%

INSTRUCTIONS:

LOCK ON uses a generic renderer DXRenderer.dll

It is located in the root LockOn folder.

 

You need to tell the game to use the renderer that is optimized for your card, Nvidia or ATI.

 

1. Find and open with notepad this file:

..\Lock On\Config\graphics.cfg

 

2. Find the following line:

Renderer = "DXRenderer.dll";

 

3. Change the line to:

a) For Nvidia GeForce: Renderer = "nv4_disp.dll";

b) For ATI Radeon: Renderer = "ati2dvag.dll";

 

4. SEARCH FOR nv4_disp.dll or ati2dvag.dll

Usually located in C:\WINDOWS\system32\

 

5. COPY the file into ..\Lock On\ next to DXRenderer.dll

 

6. MAKE SURE that you have the original drivers from Nvidia or ATI website BEFORE doing anything of the above.

 

7. This helped serveral people who I told. One had over 100 FPS flying at max settings with GeForce 7950 GX2. I'm running at 35-60 FPS and 25 is the lowest I get when close to ground with buildings, trees and Su-25T Shkval TV system. GeForce 6600 GT 500/1000Mhz

Докладываю, заявленные проценты не соответствуют полученным в результате проведённых лётных испытаний.

Интересно, как уважаемые разработчики прокомментируют этот совет.

[George_K]

это уже где то было, проверял на своей системе - стало только хуже

[USSR_Rik]

И я этот совет проверял уже давно (ему год как минимум, а то и больше) - ничего ощутимого не получил. Но еще раз попробовать стОит, дел на 5 минут.

 

Добавлено. Кстати, в англоязычном форуме примерно то же самое - эффекта нет (плюс/минус лапоть). Лучше всего выразился Pilotasso:

this is actualy an old trick. you get the FPS at the cost of shadows. Nice to share anyway. Good intention. :)

Правда, тени у кого-то все-таки есть.

[sCoRPioN], your advice is nearly useless.
