Wolfenstein the Old Blood Performance Guide Wolfenstein the old blood performance guide Continue Wolfenstein: Old blood has a fairly long sequence of intros and inconveniently skipping it doesn't reduce the time on the menu significantly. This is because intro movies are also used to mask game download times. In order to skip as many intros as possible, go to the steamapps'common'Wolfenstein Old Blood'base'bink catalog (1) and delete/rename/move file loadvideo_pc_xboxone.bik (2). I just added as a prefix. This will prevent the game from reading the movie, and so it will miss this step. Note that while the game is downloaded you just get a black screen. If you at some point check your game cache through steam, then the movie intro will be added back in. my SLI system scales poorly as soon as usage has risen above 100% on a single tank performance map. While you can just run the game in settings so low that the second card is never used to get reasonable FPs it might be better to just disable the sli/xfire for this game. Unfortunately, the multi-monitor game is broken a bit, for example, movies are not displayed correctly. The flawless Widescreen was a fix, but the game update has since broken that fix. At the time of the push, there was no method to make the game properly displayed on the multi-monitor installation. Let me know in the comments if this has changed or if you know another strategy. This game will automatically detect desktop resolution, and this will only allow the game to work in this resolution when in full screen mode. There is a workaround for this however. The first find of WolfOldBlood.exe in the game catalog here: steamapps-common-Wolfenstein The Old Blood. Tap the right button WolfOldBlood.exe (3) and select properties (4), then select the compatibility tab (5). On this tab, check to override the high DPI scaling behavior. (6), then click Apply (7). Once it's done run the game and go to the graphics settings of the game. First, select the window mode, and then select the resolution you want the game to run. You can then click Alt'Enter to return to full-screen mode again, while maintaining a lower resolution than your home resolution. I found that this game would work in repeated desktop accidents. Unfortunately, after exactly the same CTD three times in a row the game also damaged my save file. I wasn't able to fix the problem, or restore my file save either. I would suggest that anyone be sure to back up their time saves if they are experiencing CTD and that the appropriate first step will be to check the game files. In some scenes you may find that the sound does not match From what I can collect this because the frame rate in the game is too low; some proposed fixes to disable vsync (and turn it on through drivers not in the game settings) and reduce in game resolution. Down picks is the method in which the game is a game displayed in much higher resolution than the monitor, and then the image down sampled in matched the resolution of the display. Doing this anti-aliasing applies to everything in the game, but at the expense of FPS. Nvidia users without sli and running standard permissions can use DSR to perform down samples or by creating custom permission in the Nvidia control panel to provide higher resolution in-game. AmD users have access to something similar, although without the AMD system I am not able to check it out (comment below and let me know). Finally, users who work sli or multiple monitors can use this method to down sample and get rid of these jaggies. Choose the method below that best suits you and follow these instructions. DOWNLOAD SECTION Download Low Specs Experience Optimization Tool FREQUENTLY ASKED ISSUES Easy to explain, Low Specs Experience optimization package delivered within one seamless and intuitive user interface. Instead of dealing with multiple customers and/or pieces of software, the Low Specs Experience includes all the optimization ever released in one place. So basically it's a package of things that are easier to manage for the developer and the consumer. To install and use the low specification experience, you'll need the latest version of Microsoft's NET Framework. You can download the latest version of Microsoft NET Framework on Microsoft's official website. In addition to the NET Framework, without which low-experience specifications won't work, you'll need WinRAR and/or 7-sip or any other archive management software that can extract a highly compressed installation archive. Low Specs Experience optimization is always built on the latest version of the game, but is compatible (in most cases) with all versions of the game. Low Specs Experience will work with all versions of games including Steam, Origin, Uplay, Battle NET, DRM-FREE and hacked versions, you name it. Some games, however, may be prone to incompatibility problems, but this rarely happens, and support spreads as soon as users report that such problems exist. Low Specs Experience is an automatic optimization tool designed to optimize your favorite games for the best possible performance. With three (and five on separate titles) optimization techniques, the Low Experience specs will ensure that you get the maximum possible performance on different hardware specifications. Low Specs Experience is designed to go beyond all possible graphics options in the game, with certain optimization methods installing your game to lower the graphics settings than is allowed by the developer in-game graphics options. Low Specs Experience customizes a specific game to ensure the best possible performance on current hardware. Haven't found the answer you were looking for?

Wolfenstein: The Old Blood zgt; General Discussions zgt; Topic Details Performance fixes 60 FPS gameplay Before you want to go to: AppData/Local and create a folder called MachineGames. In it create another folder called Wolfenstein Old Blood. Once Old Blood is launched, a 1GB texture cache will be created inside this folder. This will ease the texture of pop in the problem (not cure it completely) and stabilize the frame rate. Then you'll need to change the following video settings (regardless of hardware): V-Sync: OFF in the settings menu. Although you have AN and adaptive, it doesn't work properly, and frame rate drops because of it. Ditch and instead force it through the GPU driver. For AMD, you open your catalyst control center and go to Gaming'gt'gt'gt;locate your game .exe and add it to the vertical update: Always on, OpenGL Triple Buffering: ON. NVidia drivers should have a similar option. SOURCE VIRTUALTEXTURE: Included. This one just improves the frame rate. VIRTUALTEXTURE MAX PPF: 16. Keep it at 16 at all times, otherwise serious stuttering and frame drops will occur. SHADOW RESOLUTION: 2048. Don't even bother tuning in above if you don't want the footage of your tank game bad. The shadows look good on 2048 anyway. ANTI ALIAS: OFF. If you have an extra Biffy GPU you can play with this setup, otherwise keep it off as the tanks framed. Now all of a sudden from the unenjoyable gaming experience we get a pretty fluid 60 FPS. In cinema, the frame rate may drop, but its cinematography is so much what it cares about. Wolfenstein doesn't really have much to watch, but it's the best FPS we've got in years, so we just have to put up with a crappy engine. If fPS problems still persist, you can reduce or disable Screen Space Reflections.One last. If you really hate the depth of the field, then you can turn it off. In a pair, click on the game's elected Properties. Add Com_allowConsole 1 (without). Once the console (CTRL or CTRL) is in the game and enter the cvaradd r_postprocessdofmode 0. This should completely disable the depth of the field. It is a pity that we can not do anything about Anti-Aliasing, this game could use it. The last one, edited by the Crimson King; 15 Aug, 2017 2:41am Note: This is only to be used to report spam, advertising and problematic (harassment, brawling or rude) messages. Wolfenstein: The Old Blood, a standalone extension and prequel to Wolfenstein: The New Order, has been released and it's time to see how this game works on the PC platform. Like its predecessor, Wolfenstein: Old Blood Is Powered by ID Tech 5, and suffers from technical problems because of this really outdated engine. As always, we used the Intel i7 4930K (turbo rises by 4.2Ghz) with 8GB of RAM, memory, GTX690, Windows 8.1 64-bit and the latest version of GeForce drivers. Given the fact that the game is powered by ID Tech 5, no SLI profile and MachineGames has no plans to support either SLI or Crossfire.Bethesda and MachineGames have listed the i5 as the minimum CPU requirement for this game. And while this may seem clunky, we must recognize that this requirement is valid to some extent. While the very accelerating old quad-core processors (such as our No9650 processors we used to test Wolfenstein: The New Order) will be able to launch Wolfenstein: The Old Blood without problems, those with - even modern - dual-core processors will face performance problems. Owners of dual-core processors, note that you have to turn on HT, otherwise the game can detect only two threads and can not start at all.

  • The Camera in 3D Video Games
    University of Utah UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH JOURNAL DESIGNING FOR INTERACTIVITY: THE CAMERA IN 3D VIDEOGAMES Jackson Keller (Gabriel Olson) Department of Entertainment Arts and Engineering ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the effect that camera control has on art, design, and player experience in 3D video games. It will specifically explore the implications of various methods of camera control that have emerged during the brief history of 3D games: the first and third-person perspectives, fixed and filmic perspectives, abstract non-linear perspectives, and unique perspectives enabled by recent technological innovation, including Virtual and Augmented reality. TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT I INTRODUCTION 3 THE EMERGENCE OF 3D VIDEO GAMES 4 THE THIRD-PERSON PERSPECTIVE 9 ALTERNATE APPROACHES TO THE CAMERA: IMITATING FILM 14 THE NON-LINEAR PERSPECTIVE: EXPERIMENTAL ART AND SIMULATED CAMERAS 20 THE IMPLICATIONS OF INNOVATION: MODIFICATION OF EXISTING PERSPECTIVES 22 CONCLUSION 24 SPECIAL THANKS 25 WORKS CITED 26 ii INTRODUCTION Both games and film are audiovisual media. One understanding of the medium of games is as a form of interactive movie, descending from the legacy of film. While games are certainly their own art form (The 2011 Brown v. Entertainment Merchants Association Supreme Court decision gave video games first amendment protection as an art form), many games do contain filmic elements. However, interactivityi is central to the medium and generally takes precedence over aesthetic control. Most 3D games allow the player to control the camera, and the gameplay experience lacks the cinematographic precision of film. Designers craft levels to lead players towards game objectives, as well as composed aesthetic experiences when possible.

  • Super ACRONYM - Round 1
    Super ACRONYM - Round 1 1. Description acceptable. This character grabs a woman and tells her, "Americans, you're ​ all the same, always overdressing for the wrong occasions," then unveils an ominous apparatus that turns out to be a coat hanger. Ronald Lacey plays this character, who sustains an injury at a tavern called the Raven that prompts him to arrange (*) an ​ excavation near Cairo to locate the Well of Souls. That injury is later seen in close-up when this character gives a Heil Hitler, showing one side of the headpiece of the Staff of Ra seared onto his palm. For 10 points, name this villain who dies in an absolutely amazing way in Raiders of the ​ Lost Ark. ​ ANSWER: The Nazi whose face is melted off (or Major Arnold Ernst Toht; accept any answer ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ indicating the Nazi whose face is melted by the Ark of the Covenant; accept answers indicating ​ ​ ​ ​ the Nazi who wears glasses or similar; prompt on answers like "that one Nazi (from Raiders)") ​ ​ <Vopava> 2. In 1920, baseball owners briefly considered imposing an automatic balk as a penalty for ​ taking this action. Chris Rose and Kevin Millar host an MLB Network talk show whose name parodies this action. In 2006, Todd Williams badly botched one of these actions against Miguel Cabrera. In a 1998 game, Buck Showalter had (*) Gregg Olson of the ​ Diamondbacks do this with the bases loaded against Barry Bonds, who accumulated 120 of these actions in 2004. Beginning in 2017 at the Major League level, no actual throws were necessary to issue, for 10 points, what baseball action that deliberately lets a man on base? ANSWER: intentional walk (or intentional base on balls; prompt on "walk" or "base on balls" ​ ​ ​ ​ without the word "intentional") <Nelson> 3.
