SH5 Graphics Settings

Antiacus · 03-02-11, 09:09 PM

So my uber desktop machine is packed for now and i'm playing SH5 on lappy386 and things are "ok" but not fantastic. It shows 20-25 fps but i notice a little bit of lag between inputs of the mouse and the cursor moving and it's maddening when things are hot & heavy and the lag makes me miss a button (teeny compared to sh3 controls).

My laptop is an ASUS GV50T - Core 2 Duo P8700 / 2.53 GHz - GeForce 9800M GS (512mb) - 4gigs of ram

I had everything max/max/max - i tried turning off anti-aliasing with absolutely no improvement so i don't think that's my bottleneck.

I really need to get my big rig up & running but there are advantages to getting this game going on the laptop as well.

Any ideas?

Sorry - it's on win7 64bit with Dark Wraiths ubermod the only mod installed for now.

Do you have patch 2 for MO? If so, install the D3DAntilag mod that is included with it.

Thanks bro. I will do just that. BTW your mod *******ing rocks. I wouldn't play SH5 without it.

Since you are using a laptop you probably also want to remove the shadows mod from MO. There is an add-on mod in patch 2 to remove it.

Question: Do i uninstall the UI mod once i have the MO mod installed?

For some reason, ever since intalling the MO mod i don't have the attack wheel in my periscope. Maybe the two useroptions files are conflicting?
