It was a while since I played LFS and I started it up and the FPS doesn't went over 25 - 30. I thought strange, how is it possible, changed every setting in LFS but nothing happened. Before I had +60 and sometimes +100 fps.

It was maybe 6months I didn't play LFS. In that time I upgraded my video card with the latest drivers and maybe changed some settings (automatically) that gives the Low FPS in the game.

Do you guys maybe know what the problem is. And how I get my normal FPS (+60) back? Because I'm :scratchch and it drives me :pillepall

thx

Which drivers have you got? Newer ATI drivers screwed the FPS a lot, I think they were the Catalyst 5.x's or something like that.

EDIT: Yep, 5,12 to be more exact, check this thread.

Get 6.3, or go back to 5.11.

Read the thread and downloaded the latest 6.4 drivers and LFS works perfect again. +100 - 130 fps

Thanks
