<div class="IPBDescription">Difficulty with fps on certain maps</div> I have a problem I don't think has been addressed on this forum. On a majority of maps, my computer run NS just fine, usually get at a minimum 30 fps. However, on some new maps like co_angst, ns_nancy, ns_agora, and select others, my fps goes to hell, yet what is really peculiar is that on some maps my fps only drops if I am in a specific area(ie: i get decent fps on agora everywhere except a few spots, like marine start). I have tried a few console commands to gain improved fps, but it doen't help at all on these few maps. Another odd thing, on beta 2 I would get my usual fps on co_rebirth, but after the beta 3 patch, my fps have become intolerable. What is wrong here? No prior threads seem to describe my problem. One idea that was suggested to me was the new textures are causeing the problem, but doesn't seem to explain my why co_rebirth has become unplayable after the beta 3 patch. If it is textures, what could I do to remedy this problem?
Also, just in case anyone needs it here are some of my computers specs:
933 mhz Pentium III
640 MB RAM
A really bad Dell graphics card
I have no idea what is going on here, and I would be so appreciative for any help
Thanks

SOme of the new maps are still unoptomised.
I Think that up untill beta 3 one of them was still having seriously uneplainable issues with one of their windows causing masive fps drops.
Again, you are actualy playing a beta this time, soooo expect a few things like this (if you go through the change logs you can see some of the things fixedi n the maps)
I added a level on this map for beta 3 and i think that info_location (name of rooms ) don't deal really good with it. I removed them and it seems to be better now.
Just because before N3beta, for commander mod, it wasn't allowed to build a room just above/under another one.
Now with combat, we can do it, but i think there's still a bug with info_locations. As you can see actually , when you leave the MS to the rebirth room, you can see the name of the room i built under, this is a bug and (i hope) the reason for bad fps on parts of co_rebirth. (two different informations)
I think you got bad fps beetween MS and glassdoors hallway, and the level 0 is under this part of the map.
so, i hope you won't have those problems on beta 4 version ..
IAN.
