Brakes on any graphics settings (Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines)
Why indoors the FPS never falls below 40, and on the street does not rise above 12. Moreover, the situation does not change at any graphics settings.My PC: Athlon 2500+/512 ram/Radeon 9550(driver v 4.12)/Windows XP/
Because on open maps memory eats a lot more than closed.
Memory is very much needed optimization compared to HL2 is low.
And I, too, brake is rampant...the Engine is definitely optimized worse than in HL2...Photo,such a cool game and so uncomfortable when playing...don't know what to do...Settings at a minimum are...
Mozh who knows how to optimize it?

Put a normal schedule and buy RAM if the rest is normal.
with 768 yards is better than 512 at 5-8 fps and no stupid pogruzheny in the middle of the game!!!
I have a radeon x800 Pro, memory one Gigabyte, but the game is retarding. And all because the engine is bad.

Well, such a system can ruin the only curve hands or АА8 and АФ16х :)
And the engine do not drive.
While I understand that the game slows down due to the number of living creatures in the room.
The mission for the cemetery until there are no zombies, the game just flies. But as they become fps drops.
Maybe someone knows the console command lowering the quality of the models in the game (except r_lod)
Dude, if you want to increase speed, it is one piece, helped me to raise the fps by almost half, in the city, and it is on the system C 1000/384/FX5200-128, and so that the brakes are now tolerable. In short, in options the sound quality is lower, disable the effects and trample it faster!!! Checked not only for me, helps in 50% of cases!!!
Narod u menja takije sistemnije P4 3.2(800) , radeon 9600XT 128MB no operativi u menja poka 256 (400) ( na dnjah vtoroj modulj poletel). Kupil igruwku vot etu, tormozit nerealjno 30 - 40 fps pomewenijah i 12 v - 15 v city. Issue : should dokuplju sro4no 256 pomozet? I podozdatj Ili srazu 512 hapatj?
Buy memory great for toy greedier all it is up to the operatives. 256 MB is even to the minimum system requirements does not hold.
Run the game on Athlon XP 2400, 512 m RAM, Radeon 9600 (overclocked). The room still nothing, 30-40 fps, but on the street 10-25, sometimes even dropped to 6, all settings have been srednimi. Tried on the same configuration, only vidyuhi Radeon 9800 pro. In the same way, but on the street in 20-40 below dvadtsati not fall, however, the settings to the max. The engine, of course, terrible. Judging by the chart, there is a special no frills except maybe the animation of the hair.
I do not remember nicely here about it or not, but if there are two hard drive, it is possible to parallelize them to the paging file. The feelings, download faster 40-60 percent.
Somewhere in the next topic wrote that if in any *. ini file to rewrite (ie all values to be specified, as in *ini file HL2) that braking will be much less
Here in the forum I found this advice:
1) be SURE to increase the paging file size at least 1.5 GB and make it a FIXED size (how under Windows XP, you can increase the paging file size, see here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308417#31 ).
2)disable antivirus, firewall and other hungry program - the less unnecessary hanging in memory during the game, the better.
3)extract the vpk-farchive the game - if they are in your version (but in many pirates they are already unzipped) using a program VPKtool - http://users.skynet.be/fa299024/vampire/VPKTool.rar. All at once unpacked where necessary - place the vpktool in the game folder ..\Vampire and consistently extract all the vpk archives with pack000 to pack103. The program will sometimes swear to. wav files of zero length, and a pair vpk-NIS will not open at all - don't worry, as it should be. After unpacking do NOT REMOVE the vpk files.
Keep in mind, if you stood Russification - Russian file will be overwritten with the unpacked English. So copy the files of Russification, in order to bring them back.
4)perform the disk defragmentation - preferably not a standard vindovsky Defragmenter and a third-party utility like Diskeeper or O&O Defrag and move the pagefile to the beginning of the disk. (Preferably, of course, generally place it on the second PHYSICAL disk - if you have it. To move the paging file to the second LOGICAL disk is pointless)
5)set optimal drivers for your video card - usually the optimal=last, but not always... for old graphics cards optimal can be just the older version - suggest to look at the corresponding zhelezyachnye forums to clarify this question.
6)install on your desktop the same resolution as in the game. That is, if you play on 800x600, and on the desktop before playing, set 800x600.
7) try to run the game with parameter heapsize. The value of the heapsize it is necessary to specify equal to half the volume of your RAM. That is to say, with 512 MB of memory it is necessary to specify -heapsize 256000
Which means start the game with parameter - see the question about the console.
In addition, the brakes sometimes called curves files pirate Russification. Oddly enough, but the game starts to move faster, if you replace lokalizovany file clandoc000.txt English
Damn, hell of a system I have P4 3.2 GHz, one Gigabyte of RAM, look Radeon X850XT 256MB, and same problem (on the streets slow down). Tolerable, but unpleasant.
My friend, and it is less slow (Celeron 2400MHz 256MB Radeon 9600 512MB RAM)
Interesting thing: I have 1 GB RAM (PC3200) and when I'm in Vampire DIN, I can easily see 150 MB is. Here and so.
