#1:  Finally got a new PC and ET looks like shit on it Author: BECK,  You have posted in this forum: Fri Jan 20, 2023 5:27 pm Hey guys, I got a new gaming laptop, specs: i7 12Gen RTX 3060 Laptop 6GB For one, the FPS is horrible - I cap at 125 yet its bouncing around in the 40s. Secondly, as you can see in this vid clip, there's all these glitches all over the screen. Trying to play full screen with whatever resolution works, tbh, I'm not really picky about making the game look awesome. I just want it to be playable. Thanks dudes.

#2:   Author: Sir Sux-A-Lot,  You have posted in this forum: Fri Jan 20, 2023 7:20 pm open the console and type /seta r_primitives 2 that will fix the FPS I'm not sure what part of the graphics is bothering you. Can you clarify which part you're trying to improve?

Do other games have display problems or just ET? I'd try getting the latest drivers off the nvidia site, &/or trying an install of ETLegacy.

#7:   Author: BECK,  You have posted in this forum: Fri Jan 27, 2023 7:01 pm ET:L worse. The primitive setting didn't seem to help

#9:  Re: Finally got a new PC and ET looks like shit on it Author: gatorhead,  You have posted in this forum: Fri Feb 10, 2023 8:17 am Outside of r_primitives, there are a number of things you can do... If Nvidia control panel, set a profile for ET.exe or legacy or whatever. Toggle off threaded optimization and anything direct-x related. My opinion, but i hate g-sync and also the amd version, whatever it is, so disable that in NV cortol panel set a fixed monitor refresh rate to whatever matches your hardware. Ensure "prefer maximum performance" is on. Disable trilinear optimization. Other things to consider is CPU management, it could that based on load, your CPU is throttling down. I think you can adjust your power plan to address that in windows. Personally, i use Process lasso - www.processlasso.com

I need to find something that doesn't give me a headache and make it really hard to see far. Still don't have the mouse feel yet, even though same DPI settings. Dunno what's up, but I can't track people as well as I used to. FOV is set to 90btw.

#11:   Author: Sin,  You have posted in this forum: Thu Feb 16, 2023 8:17 am That weird multi colored snow looks like a compression problem. If you're not on Legacy(which you should be to minimize problems) then try messing around with the r_picmip setting. Setting it to 3 should make things sharper in general and might help with your long distance problem.

#12:   Author: BECK,  You have posted in this forum: Sat Feb 18, 2023 4:00 pm I've got things worked out pretty much. FPS is stable, widescreen res, no glitches. Now, the graphics are too good and I have a hard time spotting enemies who are far away lol. Never gonna be happy here!
