N2 framerate question

2 posts by 2 people · 11 Nov 1997 - 15 Nov 1997

<HTML> Ive seen alot of people discuss N2 framerates and their problems... and Im a little confused and hoping someone can shed some insight into my question here.&nbsp;&nbsp; I have a Gateway P166 MMX with 32 megs of RAM and an ATI 3D Rage II card (sucks)....&nbsp; Anyway.. I run N2 by restarting my computer in MS-DOS mode (which gateway configured for *** - which I thought was a cool idea)..&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I run all graphics on with a full 32 car draw ahead and 4 car sound distance.&nbsp;&nbsp; Now Im not sure what my framerate is.... but I suffer very MINIMAL framerate hesitation at all when I play the game... OCCASIONALLY I will notice a little lag in the texture being rendered on the track ahead of me...&nbsp;&nbsp; of course I dont notice this when im racing a car ahead of me.&nbsp; Also.. Im not playing in rendition mode... just high res.&nbsp; I dont have a rendition card yet (waiting for the DOS fix for the Stealth II). <P>Now ive heard people with faster Pentiums complain of framerate....&nbsp;&nbsp; could someone explain to me why I dont experience these problems ???? <P>Scott B.
