is CPU load the same whether on full screen or windowed mode?
i play in windowed mode, so i can’t tell
If you’re playing in windowed mode, you’re doing it wrong like 85% of the rest of pc players
DMC3
Did you guys hear?
DarkSamus is in the hospital.
Been there for 2 weeks already.
Reason:
Ruptured aneurysm in the brain.
Cause:
Ultra SF4 PC port.
This pc port of USF4 gave hime brain cancer.
no joke.
I’m serious.
For real though.
true story.
Spoiler
naw, but really…he is in the hospital for a ruptured aneurysm…but I don’t know how he got it though.
@DarkSamus get well soon bro.
My nVidia card broke and I was surprised at how well SF4 runs on my Intel CPU & onboard graphics, as long as the resolution is lowered.
why? any technical argument behind this?
You know what’s funny? I was thinking about that game as i wrote that message, but i haven’t tried the Steam version of it, so i just assumed it would run well because it’s an outdated (but godlike) PS2 game, but what PC in this day and age can’t run DMC, even with a non dedicated graphics card. Now that i think of it, i wonder how the PS2 Onimusha games (now on Steam) run on PC.
The problems with DMC3 PC version;
-Awful control setup options. It doesn’t really work in-game, so you need to edit the .ini file yourself or use a third-party tool like X-Padder.
-Awful graphics/ resolution, with no support for widescreen.
-The sound engine causes issues with frame-rate in some levels. The solution is to actually delete the sound files in question.
You can fix these issues if you’re willing to find fixes for them, but it’s an awful port.
Oh wow crazy, i forgot to think of the bugs and glitches, instead i just assumed Capcom was capable of this, thanks i’ll remember this.
Sorry for the double post PATCH UPDATE
Supposedly the patch is coming out tomorrow OR at the worst an “announcement” (ugh) relating to it.
Here’s three things that can happen knowing Capcom:
-
They announce that PC patch will come after the console version (that might come tomorrow or later this month), because they are still “working on” the net code problem for the PC version.
-
Both patches are delayed until next month, but will release at the same time, and they say “stay tuned for more special announcements.”
-
The patch comes out tomorrow and were all rolling in net code money.
Another thing that gives me faith is that the PSN gets updated on Tuesdays, so everyone (XBL/Steam) has to wait for them to get a Tuesday. So i guess the odds of it happening tomorrow are a little better? I know that refers to the marketplace being updated, but maybe title updates too? (unless someone can tell me if they do title updates whenever they developer wants)
So where’d you get that info?
From Japan national tournament or whatever it was, but now it’s been confirmed to be coming on the 15th, i guess Capcom can come though sometimes.
Nice bandaid patch. So instead of actually fixing the issues, they implement limitations that drag down the performance in different ways. I have to say, this would be an acceptable solution if they had released it a week after the transfer to Steam. But since it took them 4 entire months to come up with this pile of garbage I lost all hope in this company and feel insulted by the way they look at PC players.
I certainly know that I will never spend a single dime on their products again and just drop PC as a platform for fighting games, playing ArcSys titles or something. The way they treat these customers is just utterly pathetic. After the recent developments (Capcom, Namco, FROM, ArcSys (I know they didnt develop GGXX, BB or Isuka for PC but its still their IPs, they should be able to do something about shitty products)) I really started to lose all respect for japanese developers.
the Japanese treat netcode like an afterthought cuz they live in a world of arcades, gum drops, swirly candy canes, and bon bons.
I’ll have bought KOF98FE and KOF2002UM Tougeki on Steam by then and Yatagarasu. Maybe Suguri X-HD too.
Having to wait for matches to finish in endless, means even more wasted time. At least previously I could quickly enter the lobby, see the Player Points and judge if it is worth entering.
Even though I have to pay half the price for the upgrade, I am still considering buying the game.
In contrast to 2011, now I have alternatives on PC
capcom should just buy everyone who doesn’t have xbox a xbox and a physical copy of usf4. to those who have xbox and the game a 12 membership of xbl. Everyone should be happy by then and to remove the stupid game from steam because they know wtf they are doing and don’t want to make a valid effort to fix the issues. all they do is Just band-aid, band-aid, and avoid the issues at hand is what they are doing.
I must admit that its a nice change of scenery to see all three platforms receiving the patch at the same time. Typically the PC lags behind the others, so this is a welcome change.
I’m pretty eager to see if this fixes anything however. My confidence in Capcom’s developers is pretty piss poor so I’d love to be surprised.
I dont like the fact you have to wait till the games finished before you can enter a lobby.
Its going to look like no ones playing endless.
I like entering to see what the bars are saying once they have stabilised and their points.
Seems like they dont know how to fix it so have come up with this hack to stop the pinging.
only when the host plays… will be a problem when only 2 players are in a lobby for sure
