Video Problems

The latest Air Battle game from Microsoft! Running on an entirely new platform, CFS3 is raising it's fair share of problems & opinions - Good & Bad!

Video Problems

Postby nf22a » Sun May 20, 2007 10:34 pm

The graphics on my game are stuttering. No matter what i do to fix it (tweaks, the 3.1 patch, which is already installed, etc.) the graphics still do the same thing, stutter. Can anyone solve my problem, because i really like this game and i want to be able to play it without the graphics stuttering

                    AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core Processor 4400+ (2.21 Ghz)

cfs3config settings : I am using screenshots of my settings but i can't get them on this message. if you can tell me how to get them on here then you can see my settings on my cfs3config.

Your system specs are better / newer than mine and I can get acceptable framerates (high teens to low 30's) with the detail sliders at 5's (except for clouds - on 1) and resolution at or above 1024x768x16 ... so you "should" be able to get it going okay.

For reducing stutter, the "Max FPS" tweak contained in this excellent CFS3 tweaking guide usually gives very good results:

Hope that helps,

the problem is not about fps : don't follow that fps guide, your system can handle cfs3 without any problem and this guide is made for low-end system, which is clearly not your case.
Here is the solution :
