For those having lots of Gears of War stuttering!

[buckiesmalls08]

I just posted this in the end of "GOW Help game crashing!" thread. Just thought make new thread to make it more visable to other with this problem.

Ran across it Here

Makes sure u have all the video and rez setting you want before hand.

Basically you copy and past this...

[TextureLODSettings]
TEXTUREGROUP_World=(MinLODSize=128,MaxLODSize=1024 ,LODBias=1)
TEXTUREGROUP_WorldNormalMap=(MinLODSize=128,MaxLOD Size=512,LODBias=1)
TEXTUREGROUP_WorldSpecular=(MinLODSize=128,MaxLODS ize=512,LODBias=1)
TEXTUREGROUP_Character=(MinLODSize=128,MaxLODSize= 1024,LODBias=1)
TEXTUREGROUP_CharacterNormalMap=(MinLODSize=128,Ma xLODSize=512,LODBias=1)
TEXTUREGROUP_CharacterSpecular=(MinLODSize=128,Max LODSize=512,LODBias=1)
TEXTUREGROUP_Weapon=(MinLODSize=128,MaxLODSize=102 4,LODBias=1)
TEXTUREGROUP_WeaponNormalMap=(MinLODSize=128,MaxLO DSize=512,LODBias=1)
TEXTUREGROUP_WeaponSpecular=(MinLODSize=128,MaxLOD Size=512,LODBias=1)
TEXTUREGROUP_Vehicle=(MinLODSize=128,MaxLODSize=10 24,LODBias=1)
TEXTUREGROUP_VehicleNormalMap=(MinLODSize=128,MaxL ODSize=512,LODBias=1)
TEXTUREGROUP_VehicleSpecular=(MinLODSize=128,MaxLO DSize=512,LODBias=1)
TEXTUREGROUP_Effects=(MinLODSize=128,MaxLODSize=10 24,LODBias=1)
TEXTUREGROUP_Skybox=(MinLODSize=128,MaxLODSize=102 4,LODBias=1)
TEXTUREGROUP_UI=(MinLODSize=128,MaxLODSize=4096,LO DBias=0)
TEXTUREGROUP_LightAndShadowMap=(MinLODSize=128,Max LODSize=1024,LODBias=1)
TEXTUREGROUP_RenderTarget=(MinLODSize=1,MaxLODSize =4096,LODBias=0)

Over that section of the following places

in My Documents/My games/Gears OF War/War game/Config:

1) DefaultEngineUserSettings.ini
2)WarEngineUserSettings.ini

and in the game directory: in Gears of war /Engine/Config:

1)BaseEngineUserSettings.ini
2)BaseEngine.ini

*Then make all 4 of them "read only"

Hope this helps some peeps.

To bad i have to reinstall the game. (DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CHANGE ANY INI FILES IN "GEARS OF WAR / WARGAME FOLDER")

Any time i have, i get the c++ runtime error and can not get it running again (even though i backed them up) til i do a complete uninstall and reinstall. (and we all know how long that takes. lol)

Anyone here know if we are able to uncap the framerate??


On another note, for anyone interested. I have managed to find the proper bik video to disable for a quick start up.

Goto C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Gears of War\WarGame\Movies and disable MGSLogo.bik and EpicLogo.bik by adding .bac to the end of them.

I tried this fix, it makes the game look really crappy. But on a positive note it fixes the stuttering.

So far it runs great, except for when you go into the power station and the Brumak walks by the window, when it does its walk by the game slows down so much the sound even stutters... which I dont get as when you're fighting the thing it's all smooth.

Buh?
