Cellfactor: Revolution Full/Free game off WP (860mb)

[technodanvan]

Word of warning...word is this game runs slow on ANY hardware that doesn't have a physx card. Consider it a form of marketing for Ageia.

Makes sense, they're trying to push their card that nobody bought. Still, I'll give her a shot at least.

I can tell you this much....

C2D e6700@stock
8800GTX@stock
2 gb Consair(not sure of ram, not my rig)
eVGA 680i

10-20 fps maxed out with only 3 bots... Lowering the video settings does practically nothing.

It's not the videocard causing it, because the videocard temp is literally only climbing 3C, so it's obvious it's not the bottleneck in said occurance, as a 3c climb from idle shows it's practically doing nothing. It's either the lack of physx card(and their software physx engine sucks) or he's got a problem elsewhere. Judging by other reports, it's the game.

[nullface]

just use console and make believe to the game that the physix card is here. in the bench when you do that, you get same score with and without the card

Woha, tell me more/how to do that.

And if a crack comes up, please let us know.

looking where i saw that

[theteamaqua]

cool, look faster !!! lol

[madcho]

i think you have to run with EnablePhysX=false in the shortcut

[DilTech]

I can tell you one thing... The game is definitely multi-threaded.

I'll be testing this game tomorrow, with and without the PhysX card installed.

Well, I guess I'll just play the game with the PhysX card installed then

Wish I could claim credit...Thank Tim for that link.

your rig is a bit better tho

still test with both please and report back

Numbers look slightly suspect. The fact that it doesn't go much above 10fps could mean that its just frame-capped if you don't have a physx card. Physx probably does help quite a bit but I'm very suspicious of having such a consistant result without it.

[syne_24]

I'm getting around 38-47 fps on fuel station map with 6 bots. It dips sometimes to 15fps when intense graphics.

Kills my PC A64 3000+@2.65Ghz + 7600GT 640-1720 at 1024 16XAF driver forced I get sub 10FPS and I have to wait about 10min until the game loads so all of you go grab yourselves a PhysX card....yeah right...

[madcho]

nice game

[Lane-k]

No prob at all....

Beta 4 server "Longhorn" (based on Vista 32bit): X1900XTX 7.4 driver, 16AF, ( i have use HDR so no AA, will try now after reboot...), E6700@4ghz

i have try 2 maps..3 factions,... without Physix Ageia... 1280x1024... all was runing fine.. no slow down viewable... will enable the read of FPS for see what i have really..

Look runing fine. ....

[-Acid-]

well its sucks on my p4 northy at 3.5 with a 6800 (shuttle)

2-3 fps sucks

[EnJoY]

Fileshack has it as well for all you Mercury subscribers.

[deathman20]

Well getting it now. Fileplanet has it up.

[deathman20]

Well ran it just really quick 3 bots. HDR on 1920x1200. My CPU is at 3Ghz as well GPU 668/747 on my X1900XT.

Anywhere from 20-45FPS. Not bad at all. Definatly no AA was on and not sure what AF setting was if it was even on. I'm amazed that it ran that well on the system let alone at such a high res.

*Test was done in 64-bit Vista Ultimate*

[jbizzler]

I turned off all the shadows and the fx, but enhanced the textures, AA, and AF. It runs perfectly with Vsync on now.

No need for a PhysX card or commandline arguments to run this. A couple maps say they're tpp physics extreme though, and require the card. As of now, all the boxes and debris kind of float and move at a fixed update rate. Maybe having the card changes that.

Yes, the PhysX API is well multithreaded.

Edit: I love throwing people off the face of existence or crushing them.
