Post Experiencing FPS loss/choppy gameplay, or poor performance using WinEQ? Click here.

Chances are your frames are being limited!

Here's how to get smoother gameplay:

Right-click on the WinEQ 2.0 icon on your task bar, select Options --> Preferences

[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Expand the EQPlayNice Tab, and highlight "Foreground"

For the CPU/FPS limit, enter a higher number than is already there (typically, 30) I set mine to 100 and am experiencing excellent framerate. Hit apply.

Highlight the Background tab and do the same thing. Hit apply.

[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Your gameplay should see a noticable increase in frames per second, resulting in less choppy, laggy, draggy, FPS loss. Yay! Go you!

Just throwing this out there, but if your frame limit is higher than 60 your camera movements are really really slow.

Oh sorry, I guess that only happens if you aren't using WinEQ2. I haven't tested it since I started using the program.
