Thanks to everyone for turning me on to the Omega drivers. I've noticed the game is smoother now. However, I was looking for some tips to improve it even more. With the new drivers the framerate is always on in the top right corner is there a way to turn that off? My framerate is anywhere from the upper 40's in well lit areas to the low 60's in the darker areas. I have the 3D settings on "High Performance" and the Overdrive enabled, and hardware accelation set on high. Anyone got any ideas for more improvement without killing the detail? I downloaded the mod that tapes the flashlight to your weapons. In the read me text it states the following... lace the included *.pk4-file into your Doom 3-base directory. Or, make a new folder in your Doom 3 directory, named "Cam's Doom 3 Mod" and place the included *.pk4-file into that folder. Now start the game and launch the mod in the Main Menu by klicking on "Mods", "Cam's Doom 3 Mod" and "Load Mod"! I've done both, but in the game it doesn't seem to see it. Any suggestions?
