UT Frame Rate Seems To Be Slow
This is a discussion about UT Frame Rate Seems To Be Slow in the Windows Games category; Help!!!! Since installing UT under WIN2K the frame rate feels like it is running slow. I get killed before I see the opposistion and I have a ping of 30. Also the mouse seems to be not as sensitive, running a Boomslang 2000 on USB.
Help!!!!

I tried the batch file that gives UT more CPU, this only slowed the mouse further. I will try the mouse installed on PS3, that should make a differnce. just wondered about the slow gameplay.
Any Ideas?

Wow, I didnt know there were PS/3 ports on a computer now. You should be able to increase the speed of your mouse in one of the menus in UT. I dont remember which one, but I have a USB mouse and it runs just fine under UT. Also, try getting the latest good drivers for your card, unless your running a Voodoo 4 4500-the newest full drivers actually slow down the card.
If you're using a GeForce card, you will need a little utility to allow you to run at reresh rates higher than 60Hz.
You can get it from here:

Also, take a look at:

for some UT tweaks.

Post your system specs so I have an idea what is going on. I like Quake so I can't complain But for UT you need a special opengl32.dll which uses the S3TC which will help your FPS greatly. But I can't go on anything without your system info.

Yepper,
Run your UT in OpenGL with the patched OpenGL fix and it will run LOADS better. If you need the fix and it's instructions just email me and I'll send them to you.

OP
We are getting there. The OpenGL idea seems to work, although I need to apply this patch. Thanks for the help so far.
