thanks, there's hope for me yet!
my 1950pro and dual core pD at 3.6 disappoints me... my framerates are horrible!
tell me, what optimizations do you use?
Well, I sure can help you with that, There are lots of optimizations made by many TPU members on this very thread, try reading it from the beginning of the thread to get some nice tweaking ideas.
Here are some tweaks I posted here before:
Ok, here are the tweaks needed for ppl with Dual Core/HT Procs, remember, these are only for ppl with those kind of systems, and will cause instability on non-HT/single core systems:
bUseThreadedBlood=1
bUseThreadedMorpher=1
bUseThreadedTempEffects=1
bUseThreadedParticleSystem=1
bUseMultiThreadedTrees=1
bUseMultiThreadedFaceGen=1
iNumHavokThreads=5
iThreads=9
iOpenMPLevel=10
Look for these strings in your .ini file and use the values I quote here. As always, remember to make a backup of your original .ini file before making any changes
Here are some tweaks for ppl with more than 1GB of RAM, these may help reduce stuttering while playing in these systems, ppl with 1 GB of RAM should stick to Ketxx original tweaked .ini file:
uInterior Cell Buffer=
uExterior Cell Buffer=
Systems with 2GBs of RAM should have these set at 16 and 102 respectively, ppl with 1GB of RAM should have these set at 6 and 72 respectively, ppl with more than 2GBs of RAM may try even higher settings than the ones I quote.
iPreloadSizeLimit=
Ppl with 2 GBs of RAM should have this value set at 104857600, and the max recommended value should be 262144000, once again, the recommended setting for ppl with 1GB of RAM is 52428800.
bPreemptivelyUnloadCells=
This setting must be changed if you apply any of the previous memory tweaks I mentioned for them to work correctly, you must change its value to 0 if you use any of the tweaks above, otherwise, Oblivion wont take advantage of any of those tweaks.
bSelectivePurgeUnusedOnFastTravel=
This will unload all unnecessary data from memory when you use fast travel, set it to 1 to reduce stuttering after fast traveling
Thanks to Koroush Ghazi for providing these tweaks in his great Oblivion Tweak Guide
Remember to backup your .ini file before changing any settings
Try these tweaks:
iShadowMapResolution=
Should be 1024, try to lower to 256 or even 128
fSpecualrStartMax=
Lower it from its original value to get some extra FPS in outdoor areas
bAllowPartialPrecision=
Enable it by setting it to 1, will provide some more FPS, but at the expense of a neglegible loss in IQ.
uGridDistantTreeRange=
uGridDistantCount=
You may experiment decreasing these values, may help in forest areas, find a setting with the right balance of IQ and performance for your system in particular.
iMinGrassSize=
As I mentioned before, setting this to 120 0r even 150 will greatly increase the FPS in outdoor areas, at the expense of having less grass on scren, look for the low poly grass mod I posted in the first pages of this thread for even more performance gains with no loss of IQ.
iTreeClonesAllowed=
Increase its value to a higher number to get more FPS and less stuttering in outdoor areas.
iCanopyShadowScale=
Use 128 or 64 for more FPS but at the cost of reduced IQ in forest areas.
Hope this helps
But above all, remember reading this whole thread, I'm sure you'll find lots of helpful tips by many TPU members, and you can make Oblivion run like a dream (well... almost )
DaMulta: A new card is a great present for father's day, I wish once I have kids they give their old man something that nice, a quad processor wouldn't be such a bad present either
