Fallout: NV problem

now heres the thing i was directing that more at fullinfusion and those framerates are good from what ive seen 1920x1200 same settings i end up around 55 at Gomorrah and 35 in the strip so you have good performance in general but im pretty sure the FPS in the Strip is no where near what you expected it to be is it?

Sure, after doing the dll fix I wasn't expecting anywhere in the game to be below 50 fps :ohwell:

Before the dll fix fps was very varied. I'd be getting 60 fps then I'd look at a wall (later discovering that behind that wall there were 6 npc's) and see my fps drop to 18.

I'll post a screenshot if I find it...

Edit: Found

Here's what used to happen to me before installing the dll fix... I'd be looking at a door getting 60 fps, shift my sight slightly (still seeing same door and only the wall surrounding it) and my fps would drop to 18 :wtf:

yup lol gotta love it but sad to say thats Obsidians screw up not the game engine or bethesda after all Fo3 and Oblivion use the same basic AI scripting yet have 0 issue with the above and facegen. Eitherway ini tweaks help a bit and can increase IQ and with the DLL fix you can still max everything out so its all good, also depending on the INI tweaks and image quality + resolution you can actually hit the vram wall in new vegas same as you can in oblivion and the like. Eitherway long as its above 30 your golden for the most part.
 
Finally got this game to run as it was supposed to.
The solution makes no sense though.
I reinstalled game, let it update etc...
Copied my saved games.
Tested.
Vats drops to 1 fps.
Inserted dll fix.
Still no change vats drops to 1 fps.
Went to CCC.
Set all CCC settings to lowest possible. (CCC - 3D Graphics - All)
Exited game.
Went to CCC again.
Tested game. Game looks crap but Vats works fine!
Went to (CCC - 3D Graphics - All) once more.
Put "Texture Filtering" and "Mipmap Details" on maximum high. Left other settings as they were.
Tested game - now it looks great and I get no fps drops when using VATS.

I told you it makes no sense....
I just hope this holds..

And, I think probably this issue was caused from me updating to 10.10e (perhaps not the driver as such but the resulting 3D settings upon installing it?) and not from the game or the 10th November patch itself.


Edit: 3 Screenshots taken during the same VATS action, fps measured by FRAPS and it is acceptable the way it had been before all this 'trouble' started:
