Thread: Increase fps decrease lag

here are some nice config tweaks for black ops.


go to c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\call of duty black ops\players

open config_mp.cfg with wordpad not notepad

make these changes. Helps with lag and nice tweaks for gameplay

this is order which they are found

seta cg_drawbreathhint "0" -no longer will show breath hint
seta cg_drawmantlehint "0" -no longer will tell you to jump over things

- below -
the tweak below is the red circle that displays when you get shoot from someone. Basically makes it more of an arrow pointing to the person instead of a semi circle. Really helps
seta cg_huddamageiconheight "150"
seta cg_huddamageiconinscope "0"
seta cg_huddamageiconoffset "10"
seta cg_huddamageicontime "5000"
seta cg_huddamageiconwidth "50"


seta cg_hudgrenadeiconenabledflash "1" -shows nearby by flashes/or stuns with an arrow
seta cg_youinkillcamsize "2" - when you are in the killcam, there is a circle above your head. Just makes it smaller.

Seta cl_maxpackets "60" - improves latency
seta cl_maxping "120" - max ping when searching for a server

seta r_multithreaded_device "1" -enable mutlicore processing

If you have multi-core make sure to change this via console or cfg - will help tremendously. (default value is 0 - which is not good for multi core cpus)

This method will not solve the problem for all people. Better wait for the patch.

Will not solve, but a fine start. Good find, I read about this on the Curse network Black Ops news blog, but that didn't have the the other console commands, so...

Edit: Da Link > http://www.codblackopsnews.com/

Edit2: They put up a First Impression article... ass linking at it's finest.

2nd ones are ones used to maximise fps on cod4 just copied from there

any idea when patch 1.1 comes needs to do less CPU more GPU my CPU was at 95% on 4 cores on black ops im gonna need to overclock and turn up some Vcores

anyone thinking Black ops will overtake crysis in benchmark gaming? lol

no, graphics arnt good enough to match crysis...

yeah ino but for a cod game there pretty good on all high (even if its only 12fps :S)
