Hello. In battle i have low FPS (5-10).

Video card - ATI X1950 with latest drivers.
CPU - AMD 5200+
OS - Windows 7, RC with all available updates.

I've tried different ways to solve the problem:
1. Compatibilities modes (All, or almost all of them).
2. Decreasing all graphical options.

Tried any other game using OpenGL? Guess its some driver issue (might be running in software mode only or something worse).

Well, I have Windows 7 installed with Ubuntu dualboot.
I had the same problems on my

Quote:
Intel Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)

The problem disappeared after a graphics driver update or something.
Now the FPS is 150

Yeah, I bet if he pulled glxinfo it would say DRI was disabled.

I've had problems like that in past on my intel card - fortunately now seems resolved (I'm using karmic beta on that machine).

5-10 FPS when basically doing software rendering, 15-20fps with Reduce Quality option enabled.

Now that everything is fixed up, can get 30fps easily even at full quality and 1024x768.

soir, i had a similar problem.

win 7 x64 and an ATI Radeon X1600 card. i couldn't play the game at all, had < 1 fps and even with 640x480 it was only about 15 fps. it looked like the pc wasn't using the graphics card at all, cpu usage was always 100%.

but i got it working by following the instructions here:
