Nasty FPS when i go in buildings

Iceghost

ok the deal is when i go into a building of anysort my frames per second drop down to at least 2 frames every 10 seconds... i have messed around with the quality settings and nothing seems to happen.. therefore i cant mission or take part in anything which is in a building. i have at least 80fps out side and it runs really smooth but as soon as i open a door to a building it lag hits me.

i have a geforce 8800gts and the dxdiag is here

ask me if i need to post anything else SMILEY

**GamePlaya3159**

Server lag, probably. Lag in buildings should go way down because the machine isnt needing to process that much. Odd.

Iceghost

i dont think its server lag, i have a good connection to the server and when i go in the buildings my fps drops and it freezes for 2 second intervals like a frame every 2-3 seconds and the more time i spend in it the worse it gets. as soon as i exit the building, (if i can) then my fps goes really smooth

i have the latest video drivers from nvidia and my pc is 100% uptodate,

i have no idea how to change this apart from useropts.cfg but im no good at that..

**GamePlaya3159**

Are your graphics settings too high?

Iceghost

well, i get no different fps on very high graphics outside than on very low graphics, i have tryed both to sort out the building lag and nothing happened, i still got the horrid lad when i put it on the lowest setting possible. i got no clue why this is happening SMILEY

**GamePlaya3159**

Neither do I, any background applications? I try to shut all mine off

Havocide

i tend to find going in builds use to lag me up , before i upgraded my system, can be hardware related i guess

Iceghost

Tbh the geforce 8800 GTS is mainly built for the directx 10 games coming out this year, i have noticed the fps lag on some of my older games which might be the reason

All my other applications running in background are at minimal

apart from that i dont know wat else to do SMILEY

The above answer is correct, it is an issue with that card.

TSRBradG

Hello Sent,

Thanks for the assist.

I have just started to work on these boards so I am not on top of all the issues there may be but as soon as I can get any info on these cards I will get back to you.

**phi**

The 8800 currently has a few issues with it's drivers. In particular it tends to get lighting, occlusion (obects hiding behind other objects) and anti-aliasing issues.

If you can avoid the Vista upgrade too for a few months as the vista drivers have a number of issues with the blurry seethrough style on Aero.

TSRBradG

Hello phi,

Thanks again for the assist.

I have to agree with you on holding off on Vista, at least until the first srvice pack is released and the driver support improves.
