Part 1
FPS Lag Guide


Since people have been experienced lag in the game, I decided to bring a guide about how to increase FPS and gaming experience.
What is FPS and how does it affect game play?
FPS stands for frames per second, which is basically how many pictures your computer can draw per second. This means the greater FPS the better. For example with good FPS the game will be running quite smooth. However with terrible FPS the game will be running very unsmooth. Two youtube videos will be provided below to show the difference between good and bad fps.


Good FPS -
Normal FPS –
Bad FPS -

From all the information above you can decide bad fps makes playing SoldierFront quite unpleasant. However FPS just doesn’t make the game unsmooth, it can also cause bugs/glitches. These bugs/glitches can result in getting stuck all the way to having a bug cross hair.

Why is there FPS lag?
From the previous section you can tell that FPS lagging (Bad FPS), is when your computer can’t draw enough pictures per second. This section will explain why there is fps lag, and how different things affect it. FPS has many variables that determine how many frames you get per second. These variables range from how strong your computer is to the game itself.

Computers:
Your computer depends on how your fps works since it processes the frames for you. Your computer is made out of many different components each plays apart in running your computer and the programs it runs. Just like other programs SoldierFront as well need a requirement of these components. The requirements will be shown below.




However these requirements and recommended aren't really good. Since the recommended is still laggy.
Here is what I recommends
1.6GHz+
GeForce 6600GT+
512MB to 1GB RAM
(2GB Vista)
You will be able to find the specs of your computer by typing dxdiag in your run or search command.

Game:
As you learn from above SoldierFront itself has it very own requirements to run it. However even through you reach the requirements you still may feel FPS lag for numerous reasons. However sometimes your computer can’t run the high graphic settings on SoldierFront, or your computer can’t draw all the details and objects which you see on your screen.
For example on maps like Village where you are observing many objects and those objects are very detail, you will notice you will have more FPS then usual.
Example:



FPS In SoldierFront
However before you try to raise your FPS with the many different ways below, you research about SF. Soldierfront has a cap of 32 FPS, so it would be pointless to try raise FPS if your at a constant 32 FPS. And one of the most important thing about SoldierFront is that it uses only one core, no matter how many cores you have.

How can I fix FPS lag?
Now that we have went over why FPS lag occurs we can now solve how to fix it. There are many numerous ways to raise your frames per second. Below I will list the many different ways you can lower FPS lag.

Updating your drivers
Updating your drivers should be the first attempt at fixing FPS lag you should try. You can check for updates in your windows security center. At the same time you will also want to check updates for your graphics card by going to the creators of your graphics card site. Which will be link below.
Nvidia - Drivers - Download NVIDIA Drivers
ATI Radeon - Graphics Drivers & Software

Exiting and closing unneeded programs
Other programs may lag soldierfront, if those other programs are running. Closing your internet browser, before you press the play button, will help speed up your computer. Exiting programs like AIM, and MSN which is not needed, will also speed computer up. Please know some programs may be running on windows bar and will need to be exited.

Lowering graphical settings
Lower graphics settings you will notice your FPS will be much smoother. I will post a picture below on what settings you should change to help reduce FPS lag.
I RECOMMEND YOU TO USE 768 x 1024 RESOLUTION.



Change your computer power settings
Set your battery or power settings to high preformence




Also works for desktops

Lowering settings even more
In order to lower your settings even more you will need go into your gpu’s global graphics setting. Once you go to your control panel change your global settings to performance. Pictures will be provided below.




That's almost all the process on how to Reduce the FPS Lag.
Now I'm going to show you how to use ASC to optimze the game.


Part 2
Advanced System Care (ASC)


What is ASC?

After downloading the ASC just run the setup & click yes.

Part 3
Turbo Boost


What is Turbo Boost?
TurboBoost is similar to Game Booster, and temporarily closes the unnecessary background Services , Processes, and frees RAM with the option of giving the user to choose.
This offers more available resources to the PC for the user to execute preferable actions.

Running Turbo Boost
Click on the following image on ASC;


A window similar to this will pop up;



If you want to configure wich processes will be paused/closed then click on Config Turbo Boost.
To fast boosting click on Boost Your PC Now, don't worry it just will close the background processess it won't close MSN or anyone, you can run it and then close manually the left processes.
After clicking on "Boost Your PC Now" a window will pop-up indicating that the boost process has been success.

And that's all the Steps to "Reduce FPS Lag"
