Timedemo results

[Inglo]

I'm curious to see what others are getting benchmarking with JK2. Since I haven't seen anyone post any results yet, here are mine.

System specs:

AMD T-Bird 1.03 GHz (VIA KT133)

512 Mb SDRAM

GeForce3 Ti500 (245/535 MHz) (28.32 Detonators)

SB Audigy Gamer

 

demo jk2ffa

4919 frames, 107.7 seconds: 45.7 fps

 

That's at 1152x864 32 bit Color and Textures.

2x AntiAliasing, 2x Anisotropic Filtering.

r_picmip 1 (Texture detail high)

cg_shadows 0 (no shadows; FYI there are three other different settings for shadows: cg_shadows 1 = blob, cg_shadows 2 = volumetric, cg_shadows 3 = somewhat complex - the shadow looks like a person but is solid black, this is a nice midrange setting that has no where near the hit that cg_shadows 2 has but looks much more realistic than a blob under your feet)

 

If you aren't sure how to do a timedemo here's the easiest way to go about it, add the following to the JKMP command line, either from windows start > run or simply make a new shortcut that contains this in the command line:

".../path/...Jedi Outcast\GameData\jk2mp.exe" +set sv_cheats 1 +set timedemo 1 +demo jk2ffa

where ../path/.. is just the correct installation directory, default would be "c:\program files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast\GameDatajk2mp.exe"

The demo will start up immediately run for a few minutes then take you back to the main menu, shift ~ to bring up the console, then use pgup to find the results. AFAIK you have to add +set sv_cheats 1 to the command line to do this because the timedemo command is cheat protected, but maybe there's another way around this.

 

If you're getting a lot lower results perhaps I can help you out, if you're getting much higher, you can help me:)

I think 45.7 fps pretty much sucks, but I'm not overlay surprised. At similar setting in Return to Castle Wolfenstein I get around 52 fps, In Quake3 around 100. I can live with it and I know I'm sacrificing frames for better visuals, but I like my eye candy.

 

Finally here is my jk2mpconfig.cfg (which I have tweaked somewhat, plus I've edited out some stuff that has nothing to do with performance, e.g. my key binds (but not all of it))

[Jow]

Blah blah blah... I just threw a GEforce4 TI4400 in here(pIII 700 with 576 megs of RAM) and I can only hit around the low to mid 30's(1024 x 768, medium/medium, 16-bit/16-bit). Kinda disappointing. Even my 3d Mark scores are lower than expected for my configuration. Bottlenecks, though, are most likely the CPU and the old motherboard(Abit BH6 - only supports AGP 2x).

 

What's really odd about this, though, is that doing the same timedemo with my old card(GEforce 2 mx) yields right around or even a slightly higher FPS score with the same graphics settings as above.

[Hegemon]

My setup:

AMD tbird 1.0GHz@1.34GHz

ASUS A7V133

512 MB SDRAM

GF2 Pro oc'ed to 230/460 MHz

SB Live! 5.1

 

Running the demo i hit 53.2 fps.

Default settings.

Haven't gotten around to tweaking the config file yet.

 

Cheers
