Hey guys,
ns2 runs smooth @ ca. 40fps most of the time, with buildings, players & infestation... Now the problem: Sometimes after playing for like 10 minutes or so, the fps drop to 1-4 and i have to leave the server. I've experienced this in all kinds of situations, even on nearly empty servers e.g. 2v2 with almost no buildings/infestation. And i can normaly play on bigger servers even in the endgame without having bigger performance issues. Seems to occur completly random from the very fist game of a day or like after playing ns2 for like 2 hours or so.
My pc specs are : Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200 @ 2.33Ghz
4 GB Ram
GeForce GTX 460
Graphics: 1360x768
Vsinc: off
Text: Low
Infes: high
Ambient: medium
other options : on
Like i said, normaly everthing works well with this settings. P.S.: i cant turn the resolution down because im playing on a TV, lower resolution then the orginal tv resolution will drop the performance of the pc dramatically.
thx in advance

I checked the console, and during one of the playtimes, it was saying that I was missing some texture, so I decided to verify the cache, and it came up no errors. Then I thought it seemed to correlate around the jetpacks, but during one session, it started far before the jetpacks came into play. I'm utterly bewildered, because with all the settings at max, and my FPS pretty consistent, especially with my delays being extremely minimal, I should be fine, but now its utterly unplayable after 10 minutes.
Noticed that the game only uses about 8% of my GPU power, but uses 1.4-1.7 GB of my GPU's VRAM.
i lowered all graphics to get a better overall performance, didnt occur since this. Cant tell what made the differce. :-/
