Explosions low fps drop, how to fix?

[Kaptein_Damli]

I have grebs explosion fix and I have tried many others, but everytime I hit a plane with a missile the fps freeze for 1/30th second and drops to 10-12 and goes up to normally fps again after the explosion is over. Why is the explosion so fps hungry? I have over 50 fps in standard flying. I have XFX 6600 GT, 1GB RAM, P4 3.0 GHZ. Am I lacking RAM?

 

 

I have also tried to set everything on low setting, even effects. No good.

This is because of poorly written sharer code (I think) and actually I've tried also someone's mod for this (I downloaded it from lockonfiles) and I too get this 1/x sec pause when something is hit. I uninstalled and I feel it's actually bit better with default LockOn files.

 

So, it's not your CPU or RAM or your system... it's just LockOn.

Do not use Grebs explosion pack. It actually removes files, the stutter you are seeing is because the game is writing to the error log.

 

If you pull up the error log you will see all the enties of it trying to pull up a file that isnt there.
