Cazer999 0 Posted January 4, 2014 (edited) So I just started playing this mod but for some reason I'm getting incredibly bad fps regardless of what I do. I've tried changing my resolution and ingame settings, changing .cfg files, changed things in my nvidia control panel and nothing helps at all. No matter what I change I keep getting around 8-15 fps. It doesn't matter what server I play on either it's always the same. Any other game I run I get great fps so I don't know what the problem is. Any help would be very much appreciated. My specs: Intel Core i7 Cpu 950 @ 3.07GHz 3.06GHz 8.00 GB of RAM Nvidia Geforce Gtx 570 Windows 7 pro Edited January 5, 2014 by Cazer999 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ur_dad 0 Posted January 5, 2014 On the topic of being a very bad fps, I think it would be much better if they can make a preset controller setup similar to that of counter strike or battlefield. I know I can change the controls myself, but I would appreciate it greatly as would a lot of people I've talked 2. 4 now, this game is unplayable 4 me due to the clunky controls but other than that the game seems pretty fun and runs like a charm.

SaveMeJebus 164 Posted January 5, 2014 (edited) I seemed to have better fps than that with my old system which was very close to those specs. Do you run the game with the -winxp launch parameter? (also the That helps some. Other than that I'd say overclocking your processor would gain you some fps before the vid card bottle necked it.

Cazer999 0 Posted January 5, 2014 I use Dayz Commander for starting up my game. From my computer specs I'd be hoping to be running this game at atleast 30 fps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
barrett_killz 229 Posted January 5, 2014 Might be your outdated GPU drivers? (Not using a nVidia card but this happens on some AMD GPUs) How "bad" is your FPS? Can you specify? (city/woods/open fields) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lyganesh 10 Posted January 6, 2014 I have the same problem. Do a clean installation of your GeForce driver. Just warning you, it's a temporary fix, so everytime you reboot your PC you will have to re-install the driver to get back to 40~100 FPS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cazer999 0 Posted January 15, 2014 I thought I'd also mention that regardless what I do with the settings nothing gets better or worse, I can run the game with the highest resolution and everything maxed or the lowest settings with the same result. I have pretty bad internet connection so I was wondering if that'd have any correlation with my framerate. I've searched all over for a reason why it might not work. My drivers are up to date as well as windows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RUS_Starbuck 2 Posted January 20, 2014 Does it happen with regular ArmA II without the mod? I have a less powerful system and can maintain 22-25 fps with lots of trees on very high settings. Sounds like something else is going on here. What kind of motherboard do you have? My old AMD motherboard couldn't deliver enough power to the CPU and it would throttle. Also make sure to defragment your hard drive after installing DayZ. Although that would be more stuttering problems than low average FPS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
