[HOO] BeauNidl3 Players 2,192 posts Report post #3 Posted May 14, 2018 I think there's a mod in one of the packs that changes the ribbon sizes, can't say I've tried it, but it might be worth a go. Aslain modpack What screen resolution are you running? Pretty sure the devs assume that most gamers will be using larger screens which is likely (although I play on a laptop it's got a 1920x1080 display). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So how does this resolve his issue about ribbons covering the capture points up top? Lets not get bogged down on why would anyone play on a 720(?)p resolution to begin with, or not having issues with the chat covering part of the team lineup making it unreadable, 0% minimap transparency and small size, if we start really complaining it all falls apart ok? Stick to the topic please. /end sarcasm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[SCRUB] lup3s Players 5,744 posts 32,893 battles Report post #16 Posted May 14, 2018 Processor, RAM and GC? Possible solution is to have as less processes running as possible (i.e. stop the ones you don't need), lower the graphics, remove some effects, and increase your resolution. Trial & error until you find a configuration that suits both fps and resolution. At least that's how I did it; most (i.e. 99.9%) of the time I play Wows on my laptop (~8yr old) and I found a decent configuration that allows me to play decently. The team lists is not something you really need tbh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[THESO] Excavatus [THESO] Moderator 4,705 posts 17,888 battles Report post #18 Posted May 15, 2018 First of all.. stop bugging the OP for the screen resolution, altough it looks horribly frustrating, not everyone can have a great or adequate PC to play this game.... Just try to be helpful :) Dear OP, Even the oldest graphic cards can support higher resolutions than yours, I believe you use this because of the performance issues. I can see you are not on minimum graphics.. try to take your graphic settings lower and your resolution higher. You will see that you are having much serious problems, gameplaywise.. other than ribbons blocking cap letters.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anonym_2hneAFaIyP4T Players 606 posts Report post #19 Posted May 15, 2018 (edited) Resolution aside, and kind of a moot point... but is that a '2' i see hiding beside the 7 (i.e. is it 27 FPS, not 7)? Still not great, but... perfectly acceptable. To 'help' with your question OP, I think there is an option to get your ribbons to show on 2+ rows (edit: maybe 3, haven't had that many yet and then the video I linked does have). And i often play on my non-gaming laptop at 1280 px. The more annoying thing for me is (in a recent patch) they changed the position of the chat/side panels so they overlay on these lower-res displays. See timestamp in below video for example (vanilla client - hadn't got round to updating the mods). This was a game on aforementioned laptop, and yes, it's a low-res display AND 'only' 24fps. https://youtu.be/kqQ487GhcLI?t=1102 Edited May 15, 2018 by anonym_2hneAFaIyP4T Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can see the OP entering the game easy 2 minutes in, with everyone already in position, because I highly doubt the GFX card is the only issue there. He does not have an "adecuate great PC" even for 10 years ago standards, the "a bit old" term is probably completely misleading and deflated.

I understand what you are saying, but your above message can easily be understood as elitism, we shouldn't do that to people. Not everyone can have the same privilages.. and there are countless battles I've loaded late just because of client issues.. and did awesome regardless or even sometimes because of that! Don't get me wrong, Telling someone, Buy a better pc, dont play it on your phone, etc etc.. is not a good thing IMO.. peole dont have the same conditions everywhere.. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats the thing, i have the lowest setting on everything.Earlier,when i download the game, it ran smoothly with 20-40fps, but now since recent game updates, the fps dropped little by little. I also have another game installed(not connected to Wg) and 1 that needs to be installed aswell. Now as for the screen resolution, yes i have set my resolution 1280-760 since my monitor is old like 13 years i think. It helps me to inspect the entire game area and be strategically quick.Ive bought this pc maybe like 4 years ago and never broke or shut down.At some point,graphics card is 'left to rot'. Still im very satisfied with my pc performance despite the ''often'' fps drops. I dont quite remeber the name of the pc, but il do some search on it.

Salute. Yes its 27 fps .When there are too many in-game sounds, fps also drops and sudden sound lags appear from nowhere aswell. Surprisingly, i had 27-38 fps in training battles which was really interesting to me. Edited May 15, 2018 by andrija_kaser_1 Forgot to add something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you bought your PC 4 years ago, you are better than me, mine is a gaming laptop which is 6 years old with a personal heater (A.K.A. AMD GPU), and I am playing on 1920x1080 resolution without any FPS problems. You said your monitor.. do you have a laptop or desktop? using an external monitor with laptop may be? can you share the specs of your PC just to better analyze the problem? If you don't know how to do, basically right click on to the "My computer" and pick properties. The opening small window will give you a summary of your PC. Just share that..
