Why CF, why?

CookieMunzta · February 2012

Why have you added Aero as a mandatory addition to running CF?

It doesn't improve performance in this game, at all. Not unless CF uses DirectX 10 that is.
It frees up minimal CPU resources, barely any GPU VRAM (especially so since this game doesn't even care for decent graphics cards), and has multiple conflict issues with certain sound cards and processors, resulting in a loss of sound and/or fps for some players.

I'm now getting higher fps on a 64-man BF3 server on ultra than I am on a 10 man CF SnD.

High FPS 64?
So it mean u had 20-30 be4?

Hezzi · February 2012

^ lmao at the cluelessness.

It's okay Cookz. It's CrossFire

Apposite · February 2012

Could be for future add ons.

64-man server :rolleyes:
I get 80-90 fps on BF3, and now I get like 80 on here, when I used to get 210 minimum.

I also have no sound now, but meh, I play this game like once a month so it doesn't bother me much.

Oh wow, it seemed that my computer has been running slower..

Aero is disabled when starting crossfire. It isn't "required". Aero was one of the main reasons for the crash bug when loading a room.

The one where it freezes at 90%? I haven't had it once since the patch. I am not talking about the one where if you touch a box you get client error.

It wasn't a problem back then...

Last patch I could barely join a room, it froze at 90% nearly every time.

Now with the new patch I haven't had the loading bug once.

I'm still getting that 90% loading error, as are few others I'd spoken to.

I'm not sure why Aero would just suddenly start causing the loading errors though. Not saying they're wrong, but CF hadn't had any issues with Aero before.

I can hear radio messages, and that's pretty much it.

Pfft, I ain't even play this game no mo'

Feel for the people who are stuck with this though, seems a silly decision on CFs part.

xHorizoNx · February 2012

I only tend to get the 90% bug every now and then. My sound works just fine.

I'm with this person. Sound is fine, and I got the loading error a couple times today, and actually, my performance is just the same,

same. everything else sounds more high pitched and softer

3D_PCGamer · February 2012

I'm finding no errors in the Windows Aero and seems no different then before. Lately no errors or hacks so I've been happy. But haven't played much lately

MegasAngel · February 2012

I have had the loading error once in clan war since patch and I have had sound issues a couple of times

MD_AnGeL · February 2012

LOL, I don't know how u guys have all this problems.
But after the new patch I didn't get errors anymore(except the Client Error, that sucks) !!

mamuq · February 2012

i used to get around 430 in crossroad with full room. now max 120. sometimes it drops more. even my friend has worse 5 fps. but in other games he has very very smooth fps.. only cf sucks

SolarPheOniX · February 2012

i get a ping of 30 all the time sometime is up to 100 . I thinks this is not normal.

confusing ping with fps...we are talking about fps, not ping.

vHellcat · February 2012

i had the loading freezing bug one time after the last patch...it was couse of some connection problems...
i have fps 40-120 and sometimes over 200 ( dont know why its so high sometimes)

My 9 year old PC have 768mb RAM,2.8GHz intel celeron D,graphic card nvidia 5900FX 128mb
and it rules on CF...the only problem is the long loading screen since the zombie mode patch

so in the same game, with no aditional//less players, no smoke//flash in effect, your fps can vary between 40 and 200?

Mine usually varies between 30 and 130 too, though 120 is usual fps. It hardly drops too 30 tho'. If it does I feel like I have 1 fps.

I used to be at 30 fps stable, in 5v5. 8v8 was 25 fps. Lol.

My laptop was awful.

My new rig just arrived yesterday night, so tonight, i'll be playing with 220 fps.

Tuga1991 · February 2012

I keep getting the following error '' CF Client Error Code Number: 24_3. '' When I get this error I disconnect back to the lobby. This error occurs randomly when im in game playing normally & I get it like every 3/5 games (very annoying). I play on UK Server 4 & I use W7 & I have good ping/status. Apart from that i'm alright.

Why CF, why?
