    How can I determine the framerate in COD4 ?

    I have a new GTX craphics card and I'd like to see what framerate it gives in COD4.

    Thanks...

    never mind, found this D3DGear....result = 90FPS fully enabled (1200 x 1024)

    There is a command you can type into the console. It is

    /cg_drawfps 1

    To turn it off just do this

    /cg_drawfps 0

    I always have /cg_drawfps 1 on. Reminds me why my 8800GT was so expensive! :p

    Lol I am usually between 70 and 90 at 1280x1028 with an X1800gto, CoD 4 does not really push a graphics card at low - medium res.

    Mine only runs at 40-60 fps at 1280x1024. I preferred living in ignorance!

    If like me your system eats up cod4 for breakfast use /cg_maxfps 200 to get more than the locked 91 fps.

    Anybody got a complete listing of console commands?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,182 ✭✭✭Genghiz Cohen


    They pop up as you type, just mess around and you'll find what you're looking for.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,969 ✭✭✭christophicus


    to be honest man, there are so many commands for different things that I doubt you will find a complete list, especially with mods etc.

    70 - 90 FPS with an X1800gto !!!!! hard to beleive... more like 40 if your lucky :D

    I don't know man, I can only tell you what is appearing on my screen, and yes I am getting between 70 and 90 FPS. I could take a screenie for you if you really didn't believe me but that still would not verify which card I have I suppose.

    I do have to say though that my card is oc'd with some extra pipelines unlocked.

    Yeah but you're playing in low/medium. I'm playing on full!

    When I installed the 8800GT, CoD4 looked like a completely different game! It really is amazing!

    It's actually /com_maxfps and it's great. I'm now tipping 250 FPS on some maps and over 150 on most maps!!!!
    But my monitor max refresh rate is 85 Hz so it's a mute point I guess. Still it's good to know that the 8800GTX has the overhead to handle more... roll on COD5:D
