M17x R1 & R2 - COD:Black Ops Discussion

Now it plays at 85-91 constant FPS
Is that what your getting with playing with the config files?

 

I've seen FPS of around 20 - 82 so far. Running on maxed out settings with 16X AA.

The game uses quite a bit of ram too ey nice 1.2gbs atm!

Cheers.

 

I'm at 2XAA. Can you really see a difference at 8XAA-16XAA?

 

I changed the multi cpu but still only getting mid 20's fps not even maxed settings... what gives?

 

Not sure chiefs. However I just decided I would max out all the settings and see how it plays. So far not to bads even though a new Driver and some better game support new CAP profile would be nice.
So far my FPS is jumping around all over the shop. From low 20s when I'm nearly dead to over 80s. It just keeps on fluctuating up and down the whole time. No real constant fps.

I might try lowering the AA later on however it seems to be running fine as is atm on 16X AA. So not to shabby.

Also in HWiNFO32 its showing both my GPUs are running at 99% and 98% utilisation.

Cheers.

 

updated driver from AMD. Running mid 50's max settings. But it seems choppy at times. But. much better than before.

 

Cool Chiefs,

I'm running the Xtreme 10.10 drivers atm. So far not bads.
CMON 10.11 and some new CAP profiles.

Cheers.

 

I'm still using 10.8's. 10.10 is a waste for me to use at the moment. I'm waiting for the 10.11's

 

I am having some throttling issues with my CPU.
Fps drop down to 3-4 FPS and climbs to 55.

 

Did u change the cpu multi from 0 to 1?

 

Hmm..
where?

 

This was posted a bit ago

 

I dont have the file config.cfg at all.
Mine is a retail one if that makes a difference.
I searched over my computer but could not come up with one.

 

Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\call of duty black ops\players


should see config.cfg and config_mp.cfg

then use notepad to open them and change seta r_multiGpu and
seta r_multithreaded_device in both of the cfg files. One is for online and the other offline play.

 

mines retail too... still had to dl the game from steam

 

Thanks for the Multi thread fix

 

I'm playing at 1900 x 1200 with max settings but no AA and it looks and runs great!

 

Hey chiefs,

I found mine under here.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Activision\Call of Duty - Black Ops\players

Look out for the "players" folder it should be in there. Then just run a search Ctrl F for the 2 strings.

Cheers.

I'm surprise by the number of issues you guys are running into. With 10.10 drivers and no mods the game has been running smooth for several hours now. I've been watching my nephew play and he's up to the Vietnam scenario and the game hasn't froze, crash, slowed down or anything.

The game is running max settings as well

i7-620 with 4870CF

 

Hey, i don't know why this happens to me but when i set Anti-Aliasing to 'off' my fps is shockingly bad, i'm talking 25-30 fps on average on most multiplayer maps with the other settings pretty high. When i turn it to 'x2' my fps doubles and smoothness resumes on multiplayer maps.

Mind you i also noticed there is no difference in fps for me when i use 'x16' AA and 'x2'.

Still, i get crap fps on my machine in single player with max settings, like 25-40 mostly. Which is stupid cause everyone else claims to get mad fps (60+) with their laptops. I swear i have a dud machine.

 

Does the new COD support the xbox controler?

 

Black Ops has a memory leak.

News: PC Gamers suffer with Call of Duty: Black Ops - Strategy Informer


If you've picked up the PC version of Call of Duty: Black Ops you might be experiencing issues with performance, as many people are rushing onto the Internet to report on lag and stuttering during cutscenes, even on high-end systems.

It seems to be caused by a memory leak, with CPU usage nearing 100% even at relatively quiet areas of the game. Multiplayer modes aren't free from these issues either.

Cheers.

 

It should do chiefs.

CoD: Black Ops' Mad Catz peripherals revealed, Call of Duty: Black Ops Xbox 360 News | GamesRadar

I will test for you right now oles!
Affirmative it supports it 100%. You just have to enable it in controls gamepad options. It even uses a 360 controller as its example picture in game.


Cheers.

 

Still getting that freeze at the main menu of MP like in MW2 and servers are laggy. :/

 

I get that damn freeze too at the main screen. Servers are laggy but my machine runs this game great

 

Thank you for this input!
I cranked everything up to the max and now i get 7x fps! This is really twice the amount of fps i had before on low settings.

I also noticed that the Gpus are not fully loaded (gpu-z says each gpu around 40-50% load!). There must be something wrong with 3d-detection or something.

MfG

 

Yeah it's weird, I even turned on Throttlestop. It seems when getting into the game the lag will slow down a little bit. I'm enjoying the game so far, already up to level 29. I like how you can select dogs as one of the awards

 

I still get this temporary slow-mo lag . Only experienced in MP thus far. Anyone else experiencing this?

EDIT: Relating to Reborn's link, it appears to be the memory leak causing multiple issues. Thanks mate

 

Added you also mate.

 

I haven't played this since last night. Is there any improvement?

Last night I was applying other fixes that sorta helped:

1. Disabling In Game Steam - this is when you get little popup messages in steam if your buddies are online.. To disable you have to click Shift+tab while in the game go to Settings->In Game and click disable in game steam.
2. Second also having to do with steam. CTRL+ALT+DELETE during the game.. Go to task manager, find STEAM.EXE in processes and set priority to LOW.
3. Other people mentioned playing around with sound settings in the game has helped, but I haven't tested that personally.

 

Tried it for a bit last night and still haven't encounter any problems at all. Hmm, wondering if there's something with configuration settings or PC mods?

 

CFX Scalling is really bad with this game. both GPUs run at full speed, but the utilisation is only about 50%, which explains why you guys are getting cool air coming out of your gpu air vents. game play is not smooth at max settings, it can spike from anything above 60fps to below 40fps. ati needs to release a new driver/ new CAP profile that supports COD Black OPs.

edit: Found a way to "trick" the gpu to have a higher load. i noticed that once i enabled AA, the FPS jumped by at least 30-40fps! the same scene, without AA with the rest maxed out, it's barely hitting 30fps, gpu load 50%. by just enabling AA to 2X, i get like 70+fps, again same scene! and the gpu load goes up to 65-70%. if i crank all the way up to 16X AA, framerate drop to about 60+fps, which isnt too bad at all, gpu load increase to 75+%...

edit: i can confirm the stuttering issue, like i've metioned earlier, the stutter/spike happens everytime when you transition from a quite scene to a complex scene. fps can jump from 90+ all the way down to 40+, which is what caused the stutter.

 

My main concern is the memory leak really. But a CAP profile would be nice.

 

Have a can I run it question checked system on 4 sites and 2 say yes and 2 say no and all for different reasons. srtest has failed me before on games on own and play without issues. I have older m17x and wanted to know before I buy and waste money if I cant.

ARG connection is ifffy too... Just had my best wager match ever, one in the chamber, my last foe right in front of me, i pulled the trigger and..... connection interrupted, i get kicked and lose my prize... And there's nothing wrong with my connection.

 

Yea servers are laggy, and there is something wrong with how this games works. Very stuttery it seems. AA does help though.

 

Wow, very dissapointed. I bought the game and sitting on my kitchen table unopened. I am waiting for the smoke to clear before I install it... I don't want to regret opening it and not being able to return it like with MoH: Tier 1

 

Kinda Surprised to hear this, My m11x handled MW2 fairly well, I Used nothing but it during my stay at FT. Leonard Wood for AIT. Guess Ill find out how it does on BOps when I pick it up.

 

I was thinking the exact same thing when I first played it last night. I was thinking, "Wow! This is cool! I can actually hear myself think!"

 

I have retail and only had a 5 minute download once the game finished installing.

Hence....

It DOES NOT DOWNLOAD the game. Unless my slow a$$ Internet all of a sudden, became the fastest in the world.

 

I can honestly say that this actually works. I made the adjustments that were mentioned earlier in this thread and didn't notice much improvement, but the adjustment you suggested made a MUCH MORE noticeable improvement. I set the AA to "2x" and VOILA! It's a hell of a lot better than it was. The only drawback to this is that the fan is BLAZING AWAY like it does in the majority of games I play. Before this adjustment, the fans were running I would say, at the medium speed. Not now though! I rather enjoyed the "peace and quiet" that the system gave me for a day, but the better frame rate more than makes up for it.

Anyway, thanks a bunch for the tip!!

 

Hey Peeps,

A patch is in the works!

Many players tell of so-called stuttering in the single player and multiplayer mode. This happens when the CPU or GPU not the requested process can handle. Who stutter are no problems with Call of Duty: Black Ops has noticed, probably via a PC with features beyond the optimal system requirements. The players have already found out that Steam is not responsible for the stuttering moments. Rather, it was the game itself.

Cheers.

 

no worries, glad it helped. with this solution, i can say gameplay is now "close" to smooth and very little noticable stuttering. gpu load is good, which is over 75% and cpu load is ok as well (not 100% like others have encountered). i guess this is the temporary solution until the patch arrives. cheers

 

I can't actually help but not say that I love you. You can be my children's god father.

EDIT: Does anyone get LONG load times?

 

Hello everyone. I've been lurking here since September learning to OC my original R1, and learning many other things for that matter, and would just like to thank everyone here who takes the time to explain things in lamens terms for noobs like me!
Anyways, ill leave out the problems I was having, the R1 was exchanged for my new R2 and things have been great so far! (if only I had found these forums prior to buying my first gaming rig....).
I wanted to jump in this dicussion having just purchased black ops yesturday. Im not getting the stuttering or problems with FPS, however, I noticed that while playing i am only getting heat out of one GPU fans, the other is cool air. Im really inexperienced when it come to diagnostics and have no clue how to find the strings mentioned in some of the above posts. Is anyone else having this issue?

Again, thanks again for all the help you folks offer!

 

Also, where can I access my sig to post my system specs?
