Chaps,
I've tried this good looking add-on a fair bit. But whatever I tinker
with, I still get really slow fps. My system is a 2.8 P4 with 400mhz
ram and a Radpro 9700. It should be able to handle any Flashpoint
setting apart from crazy terrain detail and full view levels.
What's going on?
Anyone else get this to work on a similar set-up?
Cheers

No problems with a 9800 pro here, which is not that much faster than a 9700 pro (also XP2800+ and
1gb 2700 memory). Using cat 4.8, but also worked well with 4.4, latest patch version of OFP
I do find slowdown if I use it with the Y2k3 mod, but only on certain missions (dont know why).

I used to find all sorts of slowdowns with ofp generally until I reduced the AGP size down to 64Mb
in the BIOS, that may have some bearing on it.

Hmmm, mine is set to 128, has been for years. Maybe it doesn't need to
be that big with a 128meg card.
Worth a shot, cheers.
