Hmmm, i give the frame rates in milliseconds, so if i was getting 13-21 FPMS, that would be 130-210 FPS right, is that good, 1032x768x32 on d3d?

I highly doubt that you get 210FPS...in anything. 120 I believe. Unless you changed something (and I'm not a UT expert), UT gives Frames Per Second, not Frames per millisecond. I get 80 FPS at 1024 x 768 x 32 @100Hz refresh. Someone with a 64mb vidcard probably does 100-120 at the same settings.

If you had 13-21 FPMS, that would be 13000-21000 FPS. Remember, the milli- prefix means thousandth. Multiply by a thousand to get seconds.

It could very well be true if you have all of the details maxed and such. 13-21 FPS would look pretty choppy if that is really what you're running at. I usually run UT at 800x600@32 with medium level detail on a Hercules GF2 64 and I get around 60 or 70 FPS. It most likely depends on your graphics settings. I know UT runs better in OpenGL than in D3D, so you might want to try using that. I believe you need a special set of OGL drivers though, so you might want to do a search in the forums for them because I know they've been posted before. Hope this helps a little.

With my rig, and 64MB GTS, I get about 125-130FPS at 1280x1024x32 @85Hz. Also, UT is measured in FPS, not FPMS. If its in FPMS, I have no idea how you got it that way..

Sorry for the triple post but, there are 100 milliseconds in a second, not 1000, there are no centiseconds, lol

there are 1000 milliseconds in a second. If you wnat to run a timedemo, press the ~ while the flyby intro is running and type &quot;timedemo 1&quot; (without the &quot;)

To enable Timedemo, at the startup screen, where you have the menu bar across the top, pick &quot;options&quot;. Check Timedemo. Play any game. In the middle of the screen at the extreme right edge it shows Average FPS and right underneath that it shows Last second. Simple

Ummm, ok if you know that the command is &quot;SHOWS FRAME TIME IN MILLISECONDS&quot;, then why not try something like &quot;shows frame time in seconds&quot;? I mean, come on, play around a bit, look in your ini files, and see what you find.
