Technical Issue Big FPS issue

[Deleted member 8232]

Hello everyone , first of all for once in my life I’m not trolling ,now let’s get to the point, I’m having a big FPS issue since last update with the mb2 client (openJK), my FPS are like 5 to 10 max, i managed to get to a server and I saw bugged shader(normal shaders mixed with darksabers), I didn’t bother taking a screenshot but I can do it someone is willing to help me, I don’t really have a big setup, intel hd graphics and pentium processor but itt always worked fine I literally only play Mb2 on my pc , so I’d like if you guys knows how to fix this or if it’s due to the new update is it going to be fixed .

It seems that your system is extremely outdated from what I can gather off the post, even though this is an old game, the mod uses high quality shaders in some models which your rig most likely isn't able to render.

It can also relate to driver issues with OpenGL, in which the newer drivers may not be compatible with your system.

No, you are wrong.
As we can see now, jamp and MBII Client do use different OpenGL renderers, and jamp has no problems using correct Intel HD driver.
Keeping in mind that MBII Client is updated with more recent OpenJK, it's clear now that it's OpenJK's fault.
My words about installing correct GPU driver isn't relevant anymore.

Ok, now I want you to do this:

1. Shut down Movie Battles, if it's running
2. Move file "Jedi Academy\GameData\MBII\openjk.cfg" to some unrelated folder (if you want to preserve your config)
3. Download file from attachment and put in "Jedi Academy\GameData\MBII"
4. Start Movie Battles via MBII Client and see if there is any difference
5. Also, see if name was changed to "Test" (it's necessary to check was new config actually applied)

Can you try replacing your SDL2.dll in your GameData folder with the older version from here: https://libsdl.org/release/SDL2-2.0.7-win32-x86.zip (this is a link to the official SDL website)

Ill do it now im going to edit this message to tell you whats up
EDIT: i replaced the SDL2.dll from gamedata with it and it didnt change anything

Alright, you'll probably need to open launcher first to avoid it overwriting it (this is the version used by previous mb2 client), but one more thing is to try https://libsdl.org/release/SDL2-2.0.4-win32-x86.zip

Sad.
Try running MBII Client without "Jedi Academy\GameData\MBII\openjk.cfg" file at all. See how it goes.
If it won't work, do this:

1. Open a in-game console by pressing Shift + ~ (aka Shift + `)
2. Type and press Enter:

   condump a.txt

3. Upload a file "Jedi Academy\GameData\MBII\a.txt" to this thread.

i launched the launcher first and then i moved in the file and it still didnt change anything
Puppytine , i did and game was launched in windowed mode but still the same issue here is the file

 

[Puppytine]

Try this one: https://libsdl.org/release/SDL2-2.0.3-win32-x86.zip
Just like previous one, shut down Movie Battles, and unpack it into "Jedi Academy\GameData", overwriting existing file.

Seems like OpenJK devs really dropped a ball here.
I think there's a way to fix it by changing some parameters in config file, but I don't know what exactly those parameters are, and since I don't have the same or similar CPU, I can't investigate it by myself.

So far the best I can suggest is rollback to previous MBII Client.
Files are in attachment, replace/overwrite existing files. This time it really should work.

EDIT : Yeah it worked thanks for the help and everyone who tried to help too
