BLIC Running Slow?

[The_gas]

First thing to do is make sure you are running the latest drivers for your graphics cards.

Nvidia's graphic drivers can be found here.
http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp

Be sure to check the name of your card. For example a Geforce 8800GTX uses different drivers from a GeforceMX440.

With Nvidia, you can install the latest drivers over the old ones. A reboot may be required after install.


Ati drivers can be found here.
http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html

First select your operating system, then you card, (a standard radeon card or a mobility card found in laptops) then the model number/name of your card. This will then pick the latest driver available for you card.

With Ati, after you have downloaded the new driver you will need to uninstall the old driver. This can be done by going into add/remove programs and selecting Ati - Software Uninstall. It will be near the top. After you have uninstalled, reboot. Then after a reboot, proceed to install the drivers, after install reboot again and your good to go.

When you say running slow do you mean like choppy when its on a standard res?

Yes, if its jittery, or choopy as you put it.

I've tried that Gas, it's still very jittery. I have a 128mb 9700 Mobility ATi.

Ah, well i guess theres nothing you can do but wait for newer drivers, or buy a better card. :

I have found running the game in window mode, improves it slightly.

It is pretty slow for me on a gf6600 even if I lower the resolution to 1024*768.

The worst part is when they walk out onto the field. Other that, the bobbing camera makes me wish I pilfered some airsickness bags from the plane last time I traveled.

try running the game in 800x600 (windowed), may help.

its your gfx card...its the low end gfx card...so it will run good with everything turned down...
Get urself geforce 7600 GS...which is cheap ( relatively ) ...i have that one...its runs smooth , with highest res

I'm totally not impressed by this atm.
I upgraded my graphics card from a Radeon 7500 to a 9600. Before the game ran smoothly but the graphics were awful. Now the graphics are great but the demo is unplayable as it is so jerky.
I have more than double the minimum RAM and meet the recommended for everything else.

Which driver would a Nvidia 6200E take?

Me neither. I have a Radeon X300, 1GB Ram, 87GB free space on the computer, and Windows XP and the game is extremely jerky on the lowest settings.

I will buy a better graphics card, if I am sure it will help. Would a "Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 128MB AGP Graphics Card DDR" be ok?

 

[BigCrickNan]

I've updated my post above I have a Nvidia 6200 not a 2600 ...

Not even slightly. Those cards are terrible. I speak from experience.

I updated my drivers and it's just made the lighting effects look super cool.

Hasn't effected my graphics or performance.
