**Cumbatarms** · 07-23-2010

Introduction

Every1 knows when playing online (sumtimes SF) there are mostly a bunch of laggers, now those laggers can improve their FPS to NOT LAGG ! AND PLAY NORMAL!! so u can kill them

Wuts FPS and how does it affect your gameplay?

FPS means frames per second, which is basically how many pictures your computer can draw per second(with paint :P). This means the greater FPS the better. For example with good FPS the game will be running smooth. However with terrible FPS the game will be running veryveryvery unsmooth. three youtube videos will be provided below to show the difference between good and bad fps.

The best Good FPS -
Normal FPS –
And the Worst: 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(like getting into a box glitch or sumthing). 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.

But these requirements and recommended aren't really good. Since the recommended is still laggy.

Here is what I recommend;
1.6GHz+
GeForce 6600GT+
512MB to 1GB RAM
(2GB Vista)
And a good internet Connection

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.

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 YOU! 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 uneeded programs ( A.K.A Using Game Booster)

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, But dont close microsoft things like Host or winlogin example :P not funny....

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

Lowering settings even more! wtf?

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.

And that's almost all the process on how to Reduce the FPS Lag.
Soon i post more to reduce the Lag and increase the FPS with Advanced system care...

bye
