anyone having any?
I have all the details turned up to MAX, and flying at 1280x1024x32.
But my system SHOULD be powerfull enough to get decent framerates, even with all detail settings to max, right?
I even overclocked it to see if that would help, currently at
P4 2.7Ghz (150x18)
512MB DDR at 150FSB and Cas2.5 (i get 2200MB/sec in sandra, right on target there)
Radeon 9700 Pro Overclocked to 350/317 (plenty of vid card powa there)
But yet in the game in spot view I get as low as 15FPS or LESS!!!!1 If I do a top shot looking down at the runnway while i'm sitting on the runway I'll get around 100FPS, but once I pan upwards past the horizon the framerate drops to 20 FPS
This is with MAX details and 16X AF and 2X AA
I expected it to be a little slow, but not 15 fps!
Of course I can turn of AA and stuff, but FS2002 benefits greatly from AA and AF to increase IQ.
I have been playing with the quality settings and i turned everything down to 75% of max quality settings, and it's STILL choppy, in the 20's FPS, sometimes dipping lower.
I had no idea this game was actually so demanding, or is it just me, heh.
I like to have the best IQ, but i also want fast frames!
Anyone got any advice with FS2002?, btw I get 14,000 3DMarks so I know it's not my system specifically.
