GPPerf

4 posts by 4 people · 23 Aug 1995 - 29 Aug 1995

I got GPPerf for F1GP but it doesn't work. I can see the program being resident in my memory but it has no effect in the game itself. For anyones information, I use F1GP from a CD-ROM, version 1.05. Any suggestions welcome!! Thx Fred
Did you get the message saying "GPPerf active" or something like that as the game starts, before the title pages come up? -- Gizmo -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Launchpad is an experimental internet BBS.

Jo, PMJI, but I don't bother creating a RAMdrive. I'm using Win95 and have F1GP and all its utilities running in a full screen DOS session at 25fps on my 486dx4/100. The disks I have are actually fairly slow as disks go, but even at 25fps I don't notice any pause in the frame rate - my CPU % in F1GP is something like 40% if I remember rightly. I suspect the Win95 disk cache is helping substantially, however. Mike.
