FPS Dip with Darth Photomod HELP PLZ!!!

[Rangez]

Hey guyz. My FPS without Darth's Photomod is around 60-90FPS but when I use his photomod it takes a dip all the way down to around mid 30. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks for the help

That will reduce my lag?

I tried with VSynch on and MSAA at 8x it made it worse...

I do use it with Vsync off and players at high setting. But my Fps is around 35-41. Without it is around 60-85

But isnt there something I can do? I used Darth`s Photomod from 2k11 and I was around 50fps and I need it for my 2k12 vids

speed it up with your video editor after?


it's a known issue that the ENB series mods affect frame rate, I'm not surprised that different games react differently to it...

I got the FPS boosted a bit. I got it in the mid 40s and high 40s by using the global that removes the plastic sweat and more realistic muscules with Darths Photomod.

weird, that should be placebo since globals dont (shouldnt) affect FPS. are you sure you didnt have a virus scan or something going on before?

Nope nothing. Before I play I close everything I have open and use task manager to close uslesss processes open

I have almost an identical setup and I play with everything on max except vsync off and 2X AA with D3Doverrider set to vsync and triple buffering, I get 55 FPS according to fraps during gameplay at 1080p but when I use a photomod I get 32 FPS so bump the resolution down to 900p and it goes up to 44 FPS, luckily my computer came with this weird software called Asus Splendid video presets and it fixes the color issues.
I recommend that you do the same, just forget about photomods and just fix the color and tearing issues

More specifically 50 while inbounding, 47 taking the ball cross court, 54 passing cross court, 60 during dribble penetration in a half court set.
-I play with the 2K camera set to 10 and 10 with zoom on.
-for some odd reason my frame rate gets into the single digits for a second during the flashy intro when the 2k logo fills the screen

Like every year change CLOTH_LOGICAL_THREAD to the amount of CPU cores you have, GPU_LOGICAL_THREAD to amount of GPU's, and MAIN_LOGICAL_THREAD to CPU threads.

If you are still playing very smoothly after this I recommend you bump up VIDEOSETTING_MSAA and VIDEOSETTING_MSAAQUALITY as needed, with of course the resolution.

I actually don't have stuttering but I use D3Doverrider (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=4F41ORNN) for tearing. As you can see the game is maxxed out besides for AA.

-I have all the latest mods excluding the ENB mods.

My system is equivalent to a i5 520m and a Nvidia GT 330m. Basically anybody with a decent CPU who also gets 6000+ in 3dmark06 should be able to play with at least these settings. The desktop equivalence to my setup is a Intel i3-530 and Nvidia GT 220.

-In most cases don't have physx enabled. (turning on PhysX/Havok might help people having problems if they have a weak CPU and solid GPU.)
-I think fast hard drives help in this game.
-Its a straight up port so anybody with comparable hardware to a XBox is fine.
-With the photomod I had to bump the res down to 1440x900 to get smooth gameplay.
-YOU NEED A GAMEPAD
-Turn off antivirus, in my case bitdefender goes into automatic game mode.
