Having got into Tien Ch'i I find myself using alot of archers and I don't watch the combats much due to the time they take. IMO its the missiles that are the main problem with replay speed.

I have a p4 2.6 ghz and a radeon 9600pro with the newest omegadrivers installed., ,1GB ddr ram. I also get 25 FPS in every resolution. It seems there is a problem with some setting that limits the fps, since 25 FPS is too low to be a hardware issue. any ideas?

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">I think it really is just a hardware issues. I just got the demo, but IIRC it uses OpenGL, and ATI's main line of drivers drivers are infamous for horrendously bad OpenGL support. I think this thread holds to that pretty well; all of the Nvidia cards are getting higher FPS than even far superior ATI cards.

hmmm, P4 3Ghz, 1GB ram, SB audigy 2 platinum, albatron GF FX 5900 turbo...

too high, 1024x768 40fps

good nuff for me... too bad missiles fly at a constant speed regardless hehe makes those archer hordes somewhat painful to watch but the Q key does help a lot there lol.

Re: Battle FPS...seems low
 
Some weeks ago I had an Athlon500 with GF2MX440 card, fps were 20-12-8 in 1024*768 16bits at low/med/high level detail
On my new Athlon2400 Radeon9800 I have 40/20/13 under same conditions...(with Omega drivers, fps were half of that with the standard Radeon drivers).
The increase of +100% seems low compared to the hardware increase (I now run smoothly KotoR that is MUCH more graphic intensive and won't even run on the old box), and all other complaints are also with Radeon Users - I think there's something with the Radeon...
