The game engine and FPS question

[free8082002]

I need to ask everyone about the FPS heavy trouble Oblivion have.

Recently I sold my GForce9400 GT 512 ram and enable again my onboardtrash Gforce 6150 512 ram. Of course FPS drop from 30 to 8 immediately. I use my old trick then; open console and type TLB, this make the game run at 40 FPS.

I observe the game drop is speed to nothing if you go to areas with many foes and the video card as nothing to do about this, only the processor and memory speed, if you enter TDT in the console you see something called “Queued 10 task count” “Queued reference count” and “Total BSTask count” move from zero to 1.000 or more, while the game process these task the FPS drop to 1 and is possible the game CTD.

 

I think the “task” problem cannot be solved but the TLB is a different thing, that’s a video issue. Look like the game is very inefficient to work with the lights, even a torch can cause a drop in FPS, 1 or 2 in big GPU or 4 or 5 in onboard ones.

 

My question: The light system can be changed or edited to work more efficient? I see other games work flawless using this card (GF9400GT), is a pity Bethesda have good ideas but always horrible engines.

 

Sorry my english.

 

PD. I already read every guide and touch all the setting and the ini file, I PYFIED like a maniac, clean mods with Tes4Edit. Some weeks I work more on this game than in my normal day of work.

 

PD. My next card (in a week or two) ATI Radeon 4670 512ram, if that little monster is not enough I go back to Morrowind.

just getting the game to run at all on a hard core business video card is quite a trick.

Your problem is not processor

 

its video

 

and the solution is to upgrade your graphics

 

there are various techniques to reduce the strain on your vid

 

1 ) oldblivion.com is an option (if it supports your business card)

 

2 ) option in wrye bash - inside its Bashed Patch - "no lights flicker" - reduces "lighting strain"

 

3 ) every other video enhancing mod you can find on tesnexus

I know all that, but thanks anyway.

My question is about CHANGE or MOD the light system of the game to become more efficient.
