Field of view / Widescreen issue
GHOST_fatguy replied to Paddywak's topic in GR:AW 2 (PC) - General Discussion
Like most of you, I've spent a great deal of money building a top-of-the-line gaming rig. Under no circumstances will I purchase another game which does not fully support wide screen gaming. Glad to see this issue is being addressed. -
Ghost Squad Servers
GHOST_fatguy replied to d0youlikecheese's topic in GR:AW (PC) - General Discussion
LoL, I didnt know that thats some Yep, we are having the same problem too from time to time. One dude with a social disorder can bring down an entire server in minutes and make everybody leave the server and some leave the game for good. Simply tweak your server settings XML to limit the number of TKs a player can commit befor e they are kicked. -
Funny, I have that same thought every time I visit these forums!

Has Anyone Tried the 87.XX NVidia Drivers
GHOST_fatguy replied to GHOST_fatguy's topic in GR:AW (PC) - Tech Support
FYI, the "correct" way to update video drivers: 1. Uninstall in windows via control panel 2. Reboot into Safe Mode 3. Use a driver cleaner program 4. Reboot into Normal Mode 5. Install new drivers. -

Has Anyone Tried the 87.XX NVidia Drivers
GHOST_fatguy replied to GHOST_fatguy's topic in GR:AW (PC) - Tech Support
Yes, these are BETA drivers...you can see them all at http://www.guru3d.com. Specifically: 87.25 / 87.08 -
Has anyone with a dual core setup tried the new beta 87.08 or 87.25 ForceWare Drivers? Supposedly, people are seeing a nice little FPS bump with GR:AW...
-
I wouldn't count on it...it seems to me that this would be a very involved process.
-
Yes it will work (~50-60% improvement I'd say), yes you need the exact same card (for now). You just need to setup a custom profile for GRAW under the nvidia settings.

WOW! This game is great....

That's good news, somebody else will get to enjoy the game at a significant discount. -
First Patch out NOW - 1.06
GHOST_fatguy replied to Vth_F_Smith's topic in GR:AW (PC) - General Discussion
This is a good sign. Well done GRIN! -
We have one of our guys experiencing the same issue.
-
Review is fair, game definitely needs some touch-ups...but man what a start! I'm in the camp that is happier they released an unfinished game then wait another month for a more polished version. I'm having a blast with the MP and COOP.

GR:AW Mission Briefing Audio Problem
GHOST_fatguy replied to Rajveer's topic in GR:AW (PC) - Tech Support
I have to agree, the sound in this game is the best I've seen (heard) to date. Congratulaions Des on a job very well done. I hope you enjoyed your vacation, you and the rest of the team definitely deserved it. -
Wow, those are some nice screen shots! Good luck running that on your 9800 pro.

Post your rig, GRAW settings and GRAW framerate
GHOST_fatguy replied to chiles4's topic in GR:AW (PC) - Tech Support
huh? ← VPU= Video Processing Unit MOBO= Motherboard ← You're running an ATI card on the nVidia SLI chipset...I guess it works, just seems strange. Nice rig otherwise -

Bouncing Objects In MP Servers?
GHOST_fatguy replied to Druac_Blaise's topic in GR:AW (PC) - Tech Support
This is an indication that the server is unable to process the physics. My guess is that people are trying to play on the servers they're hosting...which doesn't leave much power for physics. -
Disabling sound increases FPS?
GHOST_fatguy replied to SAF_Night Scope's topic in GR:AW (PC) - Tech Support
I only have ventrilo problems when I'm hosting a server, which leads me to believe it's CPU related. Onboard sound requires CPU cycles for audio processing. PCI add-on cards (Audigy, X-FI) offload a lot of this processing, which is why people who do no use on-board sound see better frames. Here's a great article describing it: http://www.twitchguru.com/2003/04/05/sound...dous_for_games/ -
The lag report came from the players bro... ← I have the same upload pipe speed, how many players did you run?

Sounds to me like you played the retail on an internet server...does that mean I win the bet?
