Has anyone noticed that the frame rate of UNREAL doesn't increase much when the res is dropped from 640/480 to 512/384? The game averages around the 50 msec mark through the game, and it hardly makes any diff at all on my system, maybe 2-3 msec on the stat fps results, when set to a lower res... Big Deal. The quality is significantly better at 640, I find. 800x600 with the V2 must be awesome. My system MMX 200 o/c to 250/83 voodoo1 @ 51 Mhz 64 MB RAM -----== Posted via Deja News, The Leader in Internet Discussion ==----- http://www.dejanews.com/ Now offering spam-free web-based newsreading

Yeah, I noticed that. I also noticed that in some large areas with lots of lighting efects, 640x480 works faster than 512x384. erste...@hotmail.com wrote in message <6kg9uj$4qg$1...@nnrp1.dejanews.com>... >Has anyone noticed that the frame rate of UNREAL doesn't >increase much when the res is dropped from 640/480 to 512/384? >The game averages around the 50 msec mark through the game, and >it hardly makes any diff at all on my system, maybe 2-3 msec >on the stat fps results, when set to a lower res...

I find that at 1024 x 768 on my 12MB SLI setup, it runs roughly the same as 800 x 600.

There are resolutions lower than 800x600??? :) I'm running a K6-233 (not overclocked) & 12MB CL Voodoo2 (not overclocked) and it screams!! Everbody I've shown it to has went out and bought V2 cards. erste...@hotmail.com wrote in message <6kg9uj$4qg$1...@nnrp1.dejanews.com>... >Has anyone noticed that the frame rate of UNREAL doesn't >increase much when the res is dropped from 640/480 to 512/384? >The game averages around the 50 msec mark through the game, and >it hardly makes any diff at all on my system, maybe 2-3 msec >on the stat fps results, when set to a lower res...
