    Okay, if it's running hot then you do NOT have 'adequate' cooling.
    Excellent point. I should have been more specific. The cooling was adequate BEFORE the OC-ing. The overclocking was done just to see if my current hardware could be manipulated to run CoH in Ultra mode. If the outcome was satisfactory (it isn't so far) then I would start looking into more efficient cooling.

    I won't be able to run COHHelper until I get home from work, but in the meantime - maybe the hijackthis file I ran this morning will provide some insight.

  4. This is my current set-up for running CoH
    Mobo: Asus M3A78-EM
    CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ Brisbane 2.6 GHz
    Mem: (4 Gig) OCZ Platinum Rev2 PC2-6400 800 MHz
    Graphic Card: eVGA 8800GT KO
    Sound Card: Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Platinum
    HD: Western Digital Raptor 150Gb 10,000RPM

    My drivers all all up to date. Running XP SP3. I’ve overclocked the CPU 3100 Mhz (stable) and the 8800GT to 700 Mhz, so I believe I’m at about the bleeding edge of performance on this system. Unfortunately, even with adequate (air only) cooling, it’s still running hot enough to cook an egg on.

    With the above, the best I seem to get is running Ultra mode at med to low settings and getting 20 fps max. I would like to max out all settings to enjoy the new eye candy, so my three questions are:

    1. Anything else I can do to the current set up to boost performance?

    2. I’m thinking of just overhauling the whole innards of the system with the following – would this be sufficient (or overkill) to run CoX in ultra mode with settings max'd out:
    Mobo: ASUS M4A79XTD EVO
    CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition 3.4GHz
    Mem: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)
    Graphics Card: SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 5770 100283-3L Video Card

    3. If I do upgrade the Graphics with a Radeon card, can I use my current 8800 to run the Nvidia Physx? – I read somewhere that that was possible – just wondering if it’s worth it to keep the old card.


    Thanks all.
  5. Link to the demo file that uses the A_RAPID MOV command.

  6. I took the demo in-game using the /demorecord command.
  7. I'm working on a little video - got a question for those more experienced.
    In a particular scene - I have a flying toon energy blasting almost straight down to hit a NPC almost directly below him. The MOV command is A_RAPID 0. In game - the character's animation appears to bend at the waist to aim the blast downward, but when replaying the recorded demo, the character aims straight ahead even though the energy blast is directed down to hit the NPC. It doesn't appear to be just a change in the PYR coordinates. Is this possible - same command, but different animation in game and in replay mode?

    -MM
  8. This is the first video I've made, so maybe some of the more experienced vid crafters can give me some tips.

  9. Thanks for the tips all.
    Just downloaded the demo for "Comic Book Creator" - probably not as deep as Illustrator, but seems to a quick way to get ideas down using screenshots.

  10. Hi all,

    not being the artist extraordinaire that some of you are, I'm working my way around photoshop and screenshots to create a comic book cover - Asylum Orchestra #1
    so two questions
    --whaddya think
    and
    --what's a good program (maybe photoshop) for designing the inside pages and panels.

    Thanks all!
