FPS USING STYLUS

Postby Spawn666 » Jan 21, 2004 @ 3:42pm

Hi, i have a toshiba E400 ppc, with a 300Mhz intel Xscale processor. in the demo1 i get 11.0 fps with srtandard config but when i use the stylus for loooking (like mouselook) the framerate drops to 5.4fps, does n e 1 else have this problem and can it be fixed?
thnx, spawn ;)

r_maxsurfs and r_maxedges. Those shouldn't be limited by default. It is possible your device is not stable at that higher speed. Do the walls disappear when running at the normal CPU speed?

If you are doing a timedemo then it will run as fast as possible - it has to in order to determine the max FPS it can render at.

Hey, question, I am optimizing my config, got my MobilePro 770 up to 3.9fps which isn't too bad considering that it runs on a 133mhz MIPS and it runs in 320x240 on the HPC...

but I am looking to increase it further, and one config file switch I know mad a BIG increase on the PC was r_dynamic "0"

which turns off all dynamic lighting, then you can just turn up ambient lights a bit, and presto, you have nearly doubled your framerate... but the pocketquake doesn't recognize this command in the autoexec.cfg

it also doesn't seem to recognize nosound either, because I want to turn all sound off which normally increases performance too...

Can anyone offer some suggestions on this one?

Later on I will post my config once it is optimized completely, because I managed with this config to bring my FPS from .8fps up to 3.9fps which is a big jump... so it should work wonders on some of the newer machines

(those numbers are from timedemo demo1, I haven't tried it on any optimized maps yet, speaking of which where can I download the optimized maps? they seem to be gone off the pocketmatrix download site)

thanks

yes, the walls are ok now iv set those settings back, thnx! also is it normal for the system information to display 200MHz even though the overclock is set to 500MHz in XScaleCTRL? im askin because when i overclock from 300 to 400 it displays 400 but anything higher displays as 200.. could this be because 500MHz processors arnt available yet?
thnx, spawn ;)
