WildBillKelsoe Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Hello, I have a Vaio laptop model VPCEA16FA and the specs are: Intel Core i5 2.40 Ghz with Turbo Boost up to 2.93 Ghz Win 7 HP 64 bit Memory 4 Gb (3.8 available) ATI 5650 mobility radeon (1Gb dedicated vmem) Direct X and still, upon a clean format of the system, a fresh re-install, and a day 1 defrag, I come up with tearing graphics (interrupting or non-smooth specially when moving towards AO, and at start of mission when I wiggle my head right and left for smoothing up, its the only game I have on the computer and the graphics I set to perfomance via ATi CCC I own a trackIR4 Pro bundle and the driver is up to date. Any advice is indeed appreciated. I'm considering A-10c for purchase but afraid my lap wont handle it, at least as smooth as BS (go figure). Would you guys enunciate?

sobek Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 I believe what you are expieriencing is not low framerate but tearing. I'm not sure how to force vsync in black shark but i believe that ati tray tools is needed. This problem should get sorted out when BS is patched to the current engine, which is capable of forcing vsync on it's own. Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives!

Sinky Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Right CTRL + Pause should display your framerate so you can see what's going on, I recommend you cap your frame rate at 30 in the graphics.cfg, inputting 29 actually gives you a 30 fps cap inside the sim. Just like sobek I'm unsure if vsync works in Black Shark since it's been a long time since I've flown it.

digitaljjd Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Here is a guide to tweaking ATI Catalyst: http://www.tweakguides.com/ATICAT_1.html V sync is on page 8, but it's worth an entire read through.
digitaljjd Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 +1 What Sinky said. Use this program,(installer) to open this file, Program files/Eagle Dynamics/Ka-50/Config/graphics.cfg, Right click on graphics.cfg, select edit with notepad ++ go to line 404 Max FPS= *; (* change to desired number) go to file and save.(copying original and keeping as a back-up before changing is a good idea) You can also look at this tweak guide on BS for more info: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=49434

WildBillKelsoe Posted May 25, 2011 Author Posted May 25, 2011 thanks fellas. Will keep you updated. Any word on A-10C working with a machine like mine? I'm itching for it..

digitaljjd Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 (edited) I would say according to the specs of model "VPCEA16FA" that this would be your limiting factor for both KA-50 and A-10C: 500 GB (Serial ATA, 5400 rpm) Slower disk speeds translate into stuttering. You could get a faster hard drive, or even a super fast SSD, (not sure what SATA you have, probably 3.0Gb/s) but my guess is it should run as is. You'll most likely have to tweak it in between taking molds and adjusting braces until you find your happy median and put a frame rate cap on it in basically the same way as you did, or will do for Black Shark. Nothing to do but buy and try. :thumbup: Edited May 25, 2011 by digitaljjd
