As the title says, I'm having some trouble with FPS. When I'm in a room or in a closed area, it's 60 (com_maxfps is 125). If i start moving, it goes down to about 40/50. On maps like Afghan, it doesn't go beyond 30.

Now, you'd say "well, lower the graphics". Thing is, on steam the game works smooth and with no FPS drops at all. Graphic settings are the same, my PC can handle MW2 without troubles and I keep all the quality settings to extra (only anti-aliasing is off) on a 1680x1050 resolution. Tried with both vsync on and off, nothing changed.

 

Here's my PC specs anyway...

Intel i3 2120 @3.30GHz

Asus P8H61 EVO motherboard

8GB DDR3 RAM

NVIDIA GeForce GT440

 

All drivers are up to date.

*cough* play lower resolution.

That isn't very helpful. I'm looking for something that'd fix my problem without lowering the quality.

Could look around for a few MW2 fps configs or something

not sure personally 'cause I can hit 125 all the time

virus scan

try "fx_enable 0" not sure if this command works without devmap though...

 

EDIT: nope not possible without devmap. You can try other commands though like "r_lodscalerigid 4" and all these kind of commands. Just search on google "cod 4 fps boost commands"

Same here! I thought I'm the one. With alteriw version it was better! MW2 and MW3 were running smooth,now this version of MW2 is a little poor with performance,same with Tekno's MW3 version,it's just runs as crappy as it can. AlterIW versions were better all ways!

Hmm, not sure about this one, but you could remove config_m2.cfg and redo your config.

Didn't work :/

 

virus scan

Clean. (AVG always up and running)

It worked! For those who have these kind of troubles, try http://www.fpsadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14171.

Things I changed:

r_lodscalerigid "4"
r_picmip "3"
r_picmip_manual "1"
r_picmip_bump "3"
r_picmip_spec "3"
r_ignorehwgamma "1"
r_zFeather "1"
cg_brass "0"
fx_marks "0"
fx_marks_ents "0"
fx_marks_smodels "0"

No major difference in graphics, but it did the job for me.

 

Thanks!
