Game is totally broken and ****ed

[Lone Wolfe (Hoover1979)]

BFG edition NO LONGER supports 3D Vision runs extremely slowly and has severe graphical glitching (especially when using shoulder light) Have tried many different drivers with no luck. using 2x 1gb gtx550ti's (SLI) ID and Bethesda.. FIX THIS NOW!!!!!!!!!!

[valfarovhel]

Because the 550tis are old this isn't the old Doom 3. BFG is running the strongest game engine meaning you'd be; even on an SLI, having FR drops. Also, ID doesn't read this. Did you also try running without 3D to fix the slow down/FR drops?

yes. it usted to run blazingly fast in and out of 3d and all of a sudden it is slow, graphicly glitchy and wont trigger the IR reciever in my monitor anymore making me feel drunk trying to play it

Well, there was an update after Carmack left. It could have had something to do with that. I'd try connecting ID<---developer as Bethesda only published it as they work together under Zenimax. It isn't unknown that recently this issue came up after the last patch update to the game like a month ago.

ID usually fixes/is helpful.

What is your setup? D: I'm not having any issues.

Because you're running at 12FPS. You were probably lucky before, but if you're pulling way under 30 FPS then you're playing at very low speeds. The game runs the most powerful gaming engine the IDTECH 5 with some elements of 4 yes, but it is still the 5th engine meaning that you were somehow lucky before...but, now that they patch updated the engine...you need a new graphics card. Your SLI only pushes up a clock speed by the way, and even that doesn't last forever.

"Low FPS is a Computer Problem
Low frames per second (FPS) appear as your entire game behaving slowly. If your frame rate is low enough, playing the game may feel like watching a slideshow as only a few different frames appear on your screen per second. In less extreme cases, the game will feel jerky and slow – just the opposite of smooth.

Frame rate issues aren’t caused by network problems. If you have a low frame rate, that’s not the game experiencing lag – that’s your computer failing to keep up with the game. You may need a faster graphics card, more RAM, or a better CPU. Your hard drive may be too slow, causing the game to slow down as it’s forced to read data from your hard drive. You may have too much junk software running in the background, competing for resources"

In theory that could be the issue too. Some games don't function well with crossfire/sli though 12FPS alone...sounds pretty problematic..

The engine is OpenGL based. Nvidia took OpenGL support out of 3D Vision many moons ago.

BFG edition is the ONLY OpenGL game that is Nvidia 3DVision Ready.

It was only a week B4 my original post that it ran in 3D vision under quad buffer in the game's 3D settings.

I was not aware of that. It works for me and looks amazing.

Game is no better on my new i7 rig with 4Gb GTX760 OC Edition. 3D is still broken on my end!
