Isent flame just a sprite? I dont know if other people get this but i get huge mouselag as soon as it starts flaming. Is there any way this can be changed? Its realy annoying.

as soon as someones using dev i cant fight anymore, my frames are going down to 10 - 12 ...
have no clue why, in nc1 i never had this problem.

I think pretty much every1 gets it. Needs to be sorted out as it does indeed make fighting a bit of a problem. And those mutant gunmen are still unbelievably over-powered :P

yeah, whenever I look directly at flames, my FPS falls dramatically.

Likewise and I run NC at around 40 FPS in an OP fight, 60 othertimes. I don't experience it in any other game, I run CS:S at 70 FPS constant, WoW at 60 FPS constant, and Gunz Online in the 300-500 range :lol:

I don't have that problem, but then again i think it's severely based on the mhz of your processor.

I find the low fps bareable. Its the retarded mouselag that gets me. You know with low fps i dont think that should be there aswell.

I should make a petition to get this looked into.

I'm running a P4e @ 3.15Ghz. I've got 2Gbs of RAM and a Radeon x800 XT PE running at 510/540. I run any game/program on my PC without a problem (I can burn a CD, encode video and redub a DVD at the same time without hassle). Yet once someone fires any sort of flamer in my face in NC, my FPS drops.

Somehow I doubt it is my side of the rendering which is the problem.

The Dev is not what gets me. It's the Flashlight that drops my fps from 35 fps to 5-8 fps.
Edit: I am runing a p4 3.0 (at 3.6), 1.5 gigs of ram, 9800xt, p4c800-e deluxe (motherboard), 2x Seagate baracuda 160 gig SATA HD's.

Ya, man i hate the blood 2! Worst in nf when you have done like 4 duels and the ground is covered in lag spots.

Seriously though this should realy be looked into soon. As soon as a flamer starts up im useless. I would be better off being para'ed if my enemies didnt lag to flame aswell.

Yeah, I'd also like to be able to maintain model structure when I reduce the graphic settings in options. It sucks that I have to play with cut down poly versions of everything just so I get a reasonable FPS. If they stayed the same shame, with just a crap texture I'd be happy. Then again, I'd be happier if they reverted players back to the old models, merely because they looked more real and I could run NC on highest graphics settings.

max settings on everything, 60-100 fps anywhere, oh yeah!

only prob is i get frame skips and minor annoying lock up type things when my memory runs to low
