64mb Video card screens

[PhiliusX6]

Hey guys, heres some pics from a BF2 recorder battle with my, 64mb Radeon Mobility X300, 512mb RAM, and a 1.6Ghz proccy. A lot of people say that I shouldn't be able to play graphics like this on this vid card, what do you think?

Yea but what fps you running it at?

[PhiliusX6]

I run about 25-35 (I'm not really sure how to read the fps meater but I'm pretty dang sure that's what it is) and that's after it loads completly (it lags for 2 mins on each part on the map.) I'm happy with that fps though!:D (even though I don't know what it's like to have a higher fps)

[Mohawk]

i wouldnt even bother tuning that PC on, it would cause me alot of stess trying to attempt to play with that

[PhiliusX6]

Haha, thanks for the complament:D Well I think it's just that your a nerd spoiled with a good computer:p (I'm only joking, don't get mad:cool: )

[Keyelite]

I dont understand why people wouldnt want to play on a lower spec laptop (i assume- its a mobility..right?)... i mean i would be happy in playing it never the less.. all it does is make the textures blured.. its not like you cant distinguish what is what..

My rule is, if you can play as good as you usually can on FPS, then it dosnt matter

[Krypp596]

its not the worst thing i have seen..

[FLIPINOM4D]

omg how can u be playing BF2 on that, with a 64MB

[goochball]

Im not calling you a liar, but I find that hard to believe.

[mrbucket]

Not that i think your a liar, but its pretty funny if it's true. You are like below what the game even requires, and in my opinion it looks pretty good.

[Krypp596]

i have a overclocked 9600 @ 256mb, and dont have that good graphics...

[wbcninjaofmist]

Im not calling you a liar, but I find that hard to believe.

Also the shadows im seeing in those screenshots arent the shabby ati shadows I have seen on x800 and 9800 pro and 5200 ati cards .. i dont believe it

[antoine]

i think its ... bs

[UnrealAlex]

Its BATTLECORDER. You can set your settings on extra high all that will change is the rendering time. Its like playing a video, you don't need a strong card for that.

In multiplayer games he probably plays on extra low lol.

[Krypp596]

that i have to try...

[PhiliusX6]

Um.... Ok guys you say your not calling me a lier but you don't believe it......that's pretty much the same thing as me lying right? WELL I'M NOT!!!!!!! For one thing I resized it, so it looks smoother, I did NOT put the settings on high, the settings I play on are - Everything low except lighting, Geomatry, and effects (I have on medium) dynamic lighting and shadows I have on low, 2xAA and texture filling off (I think) And I have A FREAKIN INPIRON 6000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT DO YOU EXPECT!!!!??? *cough* Sorry bout that, I just hate it when people don't believe the truth. Yeah my dad bought me the laptop (without telling me:D ) for Christmas and walla! that's what I got, I'm getting 2 gigs soon though!:) But here this! I AM NOT LYING!!!! So believe it people and the only reason it looks that good to you is cause they are croped and resized (didn't do anything else like blur or smooth it out etc.) so people, Believe it or not, and if you don't believe, that's the lie! (wow I just said something very clever:D )

P.S. when I found out it was below the min. req.ments I was like "oh dang" But it plays.:)

[King_Nesto]

take a regular screenshot and then i'll believe it

heard somewhere that battlerecorder makes your graphics look better

[PhiliusX6]

Aight coming right up (says to self) *WHAT MORE DO THEY WANT!!*

[NoToRiOuSmInUtE]

What the hell are you trying to proove to us???? Are you trying to impress cuz apparently yer bugging ppl by making us click on a useless thread. And then we see nothing but bs screens. thanks but plz keep yer graphics to yer self. LOL

[gunitsoldier127]

no man,my spec is higher than urs exept for the video card and i cant run bf2. i can even access the menu. i have a 64mB geforce4 .

[Big2firzX]

this is Bs ... This is my card ATI X300se 128MB .. everything on low to get 50-70 fps.. Here is the screenshot.
http://img487.imageshack.us/img487/4776/screen0101ms.jpg (http://imageshack.us)
i dont believe him! This SS is on my old card.. Now i got my new comp.. Look at my sig... That guy with the 64mb Card is Bs.

[PhiliusX6]

Heres one, Big2firz you already commented this one (I got it from another thread.

http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/4369/screen0019ae.png 650) {this.width=650;this.alt='Click Image to Enlarge';document.getElementById('http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/4369/screen0019ae.png');document.getElementById('http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/4369/screen0019ae.png').innerHTML=document.getElementBy Id('http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/4369/screen0019ae.png').innerHTML+'

It's very strange because my friend has a X300 128mb and he can play stuff on medium with not very much lag:|: So I'm just as confused as y'all (but Big2firz you got much better fps than me.) But to the delight of all people I'm officially going to end this thread cause everyone thinks I'm lying and they don't want to listen soooooo, Nobody Post On This Thread, Case Closed.

[[HQN]Shadow]

Can you please tell us what all your settings are on? (I mean specifically, not just "some medium and others low". tell us what each setting is on)

[PhiliusX6]

OK I'm not sure what all the settings are called but I know wich ones I have on medium wich are,

Geomatry = medium

lighting = medium

effects = medium

dynamic lighting & Shodows = Low

AA = 2x

texture filling = low

Is that enough info?

[jnick]

As stated earlier those are not his in game shots. You have to be a complete idiot to believe it. He said it himself, those images are from BF Recorder. Once you've recorded your games on super low, you can replay them with everything maxed out, and there's not performance drop as you're simply watching a movie.

Now do technology a favor and buy a new video card . . .

[imported_mn9500]

to prove this, just post a SS with renderer.drawfps 1 and everyone can see ur fps. (and dont look striaght into the sky when u take a pic.)

Haha well You Obviously didn't read what I said, The settings are not all maxed out, there on the same settings as I said in the post above, i just resized them on Photoshop and saved as a PNG. the only reason it looks so smooth is because since I resized it, shadows do not look as crappy and stuff.

P.S. I will take a screen with my fps bar:)

[wbcninjaofmist]

take a regular screenshot and then i'll believe it

Exactly , take an ingame shot not some battle recorder bs. Im running all settings ultra high 6xaa 100%vd so going into battlerecorder i dont change any settings regardless , but this guy probably played his normal low all 50%view distance and jacked up everything for battlerecorder " since its what hes posted" cmon man bring on the ingame screenies.......

i agree with you! cmon man bring on the ingame screenies.... renderer.drawfps 1 and show us the FPS!

[Death Merchant]

my rig is all on meduim 1024x768 no aa and mine doesent look that good

you cant go above low with 512mb ram believe me youd be stuttering like hell my freid used to have 512mb with

amd 3000 64
radeon 9600 pro

and his was all on low

them screens are total ******** thats looks as they are nearly all on high

Screenshot?

[Karl]

Hell I have 2gig of ram, AMD Athlon 64 3500+ and a 7800GT OCed to a GTX and my screenshots look only slightly better than those :S Xcept my textures look ALOT better

[MackTheKnifeAU]

that i have to try...

That's how I did my Speed and Altitude video. I have a 9800 pro, and recorded the stunts on my regular (lowish) settings, then turned everything on HIGH and 6x AA when I rendered the video with Battlelauncher.

[goochball]

Once you've recorded your games on super low, you can replay them with everything maxed out, and there's not performance drop as you're simply watching a movie.

Sorry, but that is false. Playing the bf recorder demo, is just like being in the game. It is not like watching a movie. So if you have a crap video card, dont go in bf recorder expecting good FPS, because it wont happen. However, it works well for taking high quality screenshots.

point is this guy who started the post did just that to get high quality screenshots... and we are still waiting for those ingame screenies

[JordsUk]

had alot of coffee have ya?

[Drifter]

i cant even get that and i have a 256 mb card..

[Krypp596]

i also have a 256mb card, a crappy 9600... i can run with almost everything on high on 800x600

[PhiliusX6]

Ok guys here is the pic of me and the FED guys doing some stunt stuff (theres only 6-7 guys so the fps was serprizingly high)

And ya'll keep saying you want in game screenies, I have one on page 2! but I'll get some more after I play some more games, I'll get back to you (I didn't crank up my graphics, I told you, when you resize an image it looks a heck of a lot better)

[SgtMaj.Sudano]

I had a 1.6GHz with a 9600 256mb card in it and with all graphics on low could only get like 20 fps. :hmm:

[PhiliusX6]

Alright heres more screens with the fps bar.

http://img470.imageshack.us/img470/8797/screen0167jn.png (http://imageshack.us)

That's what my stuff looks like in game (These servers had only 10 or so people in them but the servers were very laggy)

[jdogg88-Fed]

i belive him cause my friend has same exact card and its just like that only thing different is he has a better processor. I didnt belive my friend till i went to his house to see it with my own eyes

[SgtMaj.Sudano]

You call 23 fps in the middle of the water with one boat extremely high fps? :hmm:

[imported_mn9500]

and 15 fps is not very good with 4 ppl ons screen. (and a jeep)

[PhiliusX6]

hey it IS for me, ok? hehe, well you know, since y'all didn't believe that I could run my game with my vid card mybe you will listen to me now, that's the kinda fps I get ALL THE TIME, so it's not like I'm getting great fps with this video card or anything, so this is what I always play with.:)

[SgtMaj.Sudano]

Well it sucks for you then.

[VortEksi]

HAHAHAHAHA, 15fps. After reading the whole topic, you're just killing me with your drawfps screens. Sucks to be you. :D

And I guess 43.3 fps is the best you can get without looking at the clouds?

[SgtMaj.Sudano]

It's not about how good things can look on a bad computer, its about how good you can get it to look and still run good.

[PhiliusX6]

w00t! I just got 2 gigs!!!! YAY!!! WOW! It's sooooo smooth! no lag at all! maps load instantly! Not to mention theres no lag at the begining of the battle! I've maneged to crank my stuff to everything medium now except terrain (slows it down a lot) BUT THIS IS GREAT!!!!!:D :D :D :D :D :D :D

[-GRimm-]

You my friend are a ******* case closed. :)

[PhiliusX6]

Soooooo being happy about getting 2 gigs and getting no lag makes me a ******* eh? well I don't care what you think dude, it's cool:p

[VortEksi]

Soooooo being happy about getting 2 gigs and getting no lag makes me a ******* eh? well I don't care what you think dude, it's cool:p
I think that he didn't base the comment on that single post, but on the whole topic. :rolleyes:

[-GRimm-]

No, you thinking 15 fps is good is you being a *******...:laugh:

[FusioN[90thSFG]]

Grats, now go play and leave us alone, permanently

[SgtMaj.Sudano]

Ownt.

[PhiliusX6]

Ok guys I won't post anymore for your satisfaction, case closed, goodbye,forever, nobody post on here ever again.:mad:

[FusioN[90thSFG]]

We wouldnt be so aggravated if your vid card wasnt a 64mb card

[PhiliusX6]

That's true, but it is, so get over it.

[FusioN[90thSFG]]

Don't worry, I'm sitting on it, So i'm over it now

[ConscriptVirus]

wow how much did ur card cost? my 128 mb can barely run bf2 at 25fps on mostly low except medium textures and effects

[mrbucket]

Oh no, please dont make him start again.

[Coi]

mine is....ati 9800 pro ,1.7ghz, 1gig or ram, and i play all high cept for, textuer and lighting wich is medium and 6x aa, and i play wif 30-35 fps

[BigBadBob]

Its BATTLECORDER. You can set your settings on extra high all that will change is the rendering time. Its like playing a video, you don't need a strong card for that.

In multiplayer games he probably plays on extra low lol.

that's what i was going to say. Viewing the demos, you can get away with some pretty high settings, but actually playing yourself, you would get 1 frame a second.

[VortEksi]

Ok guys I won't post anymore for your satisfaction, case closed, goodbye,forever, nobody post on here ever again.:mad:
You think you can just command people not to post here? You must be some kind of spare-moderator.

And if you continuosly post here yourself, this will never stop. You promise not to post here anymore and then after two hours you're back here.

You should get over it yourself, period.

[FusioN[90thSFG]]

see THAT right there is normal, not the thread starters.....

[joshuajames]

i saw one of his videos, shows his graphics a lot more realisticly, these are much better than graphics then what i saw.

[Gontire]

ugly :|:

[PhiliusX6]

That was because the only way I can make movies is by turning the stuff on low cause It's super laggy when i use fraps on med settings, and that was before I had messed around with the graphics and found out I could play it on med settings.

[Battlefield Nuke]

I got a Geforce 100/200 MX which sorely needs to be ubrgraded. I don't see how a 64mb video card could run this game.

[zymyo]

Haha these look convincingly playeable, maybe by next year we expect it for the PSP!

[ibnturab]

Hello,

Like many of you, i didn't believe that BF2 would play with a 64mb Video card. But it actually does play on some cards from Ati Radeon !! I personally have it running on my laptop that has 64mb [dedicated] on Ati Radeon 9600 . I have set all the graphics to the lowest and the game plays great [smooth] online. I must admit that the game was unplayable with 256Ram but when i added a 512mb ram stick it works great!!
A friend of mine has an dell inspiron 9300 with Ati X300 64mb and it plays great on his as well [ i think he has 1gb ram] with the settings turned on low. If you want the best graphics on a laptop, you would probably want to get the Radeon x600 [256mb] or the x700 [128mb version] or the latest geforce card. But then you run into $$ [ my laptop cost less than $700 [refurbished].

Gateway m505 Laptop
Pentium M [1.5ghz]
Ati Radeon 9600 [64 mb]
Ram: 768mb
60gb HD

[Decripfy]

x800, 2gigs of ram and 2.8ghz pc.. cost me 1.2k UK pounds what a rip off ..bloddy PC world

[ibnturab]

Sir. Decripfy,

You spent a fortune but I bet the graphics on ur system are awesome. Also, your graphics card will probably be able to handle the newest games for the next couple of years.

[Hoppum]

x800, 2gigs of ram and 2.8ghz pc.. cost me 1.2k UK pounds what a rip off ..bloddy PC world

Haw haw Pc World owned you good

[Minicoop503]

i have an x300 256mb and i can play on all medium so I think it is believeable

[AlexIsUber]

yeah i doubt he can get those gfx in a online server


never tried battlerecorder but looks real smooth.

[Minicoop503]

im about to install bf2 on my laptop which is 1.6 ghz pentium m, 512 mb, and some 64 mb graphics card so im gonna see if this guy is lying or not. hopefully my laptop doesnt overheat and blow up lol.

[Nefarious]

The Radeon X300 series of video cards is 128 MB.....not 64.

:rolleyes:

[Minicoop503]

he has the "mobility" version so it might be different

[Nadokings]

I think that you have a gift from god, and i also think that you should inform the pres of dice about your discovery of this fossil.

[Minicoop503]

who are you talking about?

[AlexIsUber]

64 mb cards have AA and AF setting ? :S

I can't even load in an online server with all high on my 1.1 GHz CPU and 9600 overclocked.

[Scinto]

god...

go to the BF2 Support section and create a thread there, DON'T post it in an old thread.

[Desertfox]

Its BATTLECORDER. You can set your settings on extra high all that will change is the rendering time. Its like playing a video, you don't need a strong card for that.

Al3x hit the nail on the head.
