[Stuttering graphics]

Does your laptop have a hybrid drive? If it does, install CM on the C partition (SSD), and it might help. It did for me. Also check if your laptop has two graphics cards (mine does). Make sure CM runs on the proper high quality graphics card in that case. Hope it works.

Edit: My bad, just saw that you tried SSD. Try the graphics card option.

Yea i've made sure it's not running on integrated graphics or anything like that. I've also tried using the recommended settings in the nvidia control panel for the graphics, no joy

[Stuttering graphics]

This is a problem that I've been trying to fix for ages..

A stutter that occurs when a new sound is played that causes the game to freeze for roughly a second and the map redraw.

The frustrating thing is that it seems to be a common problem but there isn't a common fix.

For me, the stutter disappears when I mute the game but obviously this isn't an ideal solution. It's clearly not a graphics problem.

I have a V15 Nitro laptop. I've uninstalled and reinstalled all my drivers including sound (realtek) and hard drive drivers to no avail. I've installed the game on both ssd and hdd to no avail. I tried windows system repair which didn't work.

I will point out this problem isn't exclusive to CM however, it's just more noticeable than in other games.

 

If anyone has found a fix for this extremely annoying problem, please share.

Cheers

 

[Performance Boost?]

Hi,

Am I correct in thinking that a patch will be released with the forthcoming CW module and this will include a general performance boost to the game (graphics wise)?

Loving the game but my enjoyment is dampened somewhat by the constant need to retweak my graphics settings per map in order to get things running smoothly.

I am running an older system granted and while i'm not expecting miracles, i'm hoping that the graphics consistancy will improve.

My System:-

athlon 64 x2 4600

4gb ram

GeForce GTX 260

Unfortunately i haven't got the funds to upgrade atm which is the obvious solution. Also could you please let me know what graphics settings you use if you have a similar spec system to me.

I have applied many of the tips suggested in the Nvidia guide on the tech forum, my main settings are below:-

Model quality - fast

Model textures - balanced

shadows - off

aa - off

af - 16x (to try and get rid of that ugly drawing line)

v-sync - off

high priority process

lowering the resolution does not seem to make much impact at all with the framerate oddly

Thanks

(p.s. Wasn't sure whether to put this in the tech forum or not since my main question is quite general)
