BF3 Tweaks and Help Thread

I have an wired xbox in one of my usb port. Do I need to take this out to fix the x100times mouse acceleration feeling? I had to adjust the mouse settings to almost 0 just to get a manageable control over my guy lol.

The controller interferes with you mouse dead zone. Unplug it and report back.
 
fixed my issues 100%! I didn't see a HT threading in my BIOS it was called something else. Disabling resolved all of my stutter! BUTTER now!

Starting up BF3 it opens up IE and asks me to log in. When I type in my login/password; I get dumped back into the logon screen.

If open up firefox I can log in and it will work fine. being lazy. I'd rather it just log in when IE opens up. Any fix?

In Internet explorer, make Battlefield.com a trusted site. Also go into the pop up blocker and allow it as well.

If you take the game to a res of 4800X900 it does displays everything correctly on the screen, and runs fine, but if you go above that is hell, you can't see shit.

well thats my case, is anyone else running at 5760X1200 having this same issue?

Ahhhh. Wait a minute... Q6600 doesn't have HT...!!!! Wonder what you disabled in BIOS then.....:confused:
 
Well.. actually it didn't fix my issue at all. It seems larger scaled maps are just STUTTER fests. WTH is wrong with this game? or is it the drivers? This is so annoying.
 
I give CAP4 two thumbs down for the 5970. May work better for 6000 series cards.
Still came in first but had to fight large amounts of jitter. Uninstalling it now.

The 64 player maps are rubberband fests. It could seem like stutter when it's really the server. Play small player servers 32-48 and see if it goes away.
 
Anyone have problems with fullscreen? It seems to always run windowed. I tried Left Alt+Enter, toggle fullscreen in options, ALT+F1, everything. Still cant. I gave up and just played in windowed :/

Make sure to click on a button almost on the bottom that says "Apply Full Screen Now" or something like that.

So to recap:

(1) Toggle Full Screen.
(2) Click on the "Apply Full Screen Now"
 
Whenever i hold CTRL or SHIFT and try to fire i get a wierd issue. If i click quickly it starts beeping and stuttering, almost like im pressing too many keys at once on a keyboard.
 
Ok finally fixed my issue. I had textures still set to Ultra, not sure why but I guess Ultra causes severe stuttering. Set to High, butter smooth now on large maps.

Could be a memory issue on your vid card.

Already tried it. Just goes into a full screen 'window mode' So the window is 1920x1200 but still windowed.

Sounds like Stick Keys is being turned on. It is a Windows Acceptability Option you can turn off.

Or a driver issue. If it was a memory issue, most likely there would be either crashes to desktop or BSOD.
Click to expand...

Exceeding your vram typically results in a significant frame rate drop or stuttering. I have not seen it result in crashes or BSOD. I'm hitting ~1.5GB of VRAM usage @ 1920x1080 Ultra, High FXAA, HBAO Off, 16x Aniso ~100fps average, so it wouldn't surprise me if he is running out of vram on that 5850.

anyone running cap4 on 11.10preview3 on 6970 crossfire?
Click to expand...

I'm running that on 6950's - go for it. It works great - no stutter, 99% GPU usage on both cards :D
 
Game was running fine for me the last 2 days and all of a sudden I can't stay connected to a server for more than 5 minutes. What's up with that? Does it have anything to do with this "Origin activation is down at the moment" message?

This. I asked becuase it's the same on my 5970. I can run everthing Ultra but only 2xMSAA or only PostAA. Apply both and it chokes.

You are correct. Sorry. I just figured there was something wrong with machine.

I tested last night with settings. By auto on my config it goes to this

(11.9 drivers)

Everything on High
Post processing turned off
HABO
16 AF
No MSAA or AA.
Blur and everything turned on.
Vsync on

I was getting around 60 max (vsync) to around 34-40ish with FRAPS.

I tried moving some stuff to Ultra and turning AF off. I would get stutter in jets/cars or high action areas. One min I would be at 60 - then 40 then 24 and load into a tank and it would just drop to 0.

The in game fraps sucks because when I do control+alt+s of course I move backwards.

Is everyone just using fraps?
 
I just decided to use the on-screen display from Afterburner for my temp and FPS. It's much easier to read and less cluttered than the full statistics display the game offers.

1GB VRAM probably isn't enough for your resolution on High/Ultra settings for textures/etc on the full scale maps. 1280 or so would probably be okay.
 
Anyone use/try Origin in Sandboxie? Anyone know how to fix Battlelog in Firefox not showing pings or maybe change the default browser for Sandboxie without having the purchase the full version of it? Pings show just fine when it's running outside of Sandboxie.

It's not just an FF issue: I don't see pings at all in IE9 and I see them only rarely and on a few servers in Chrome.
 
Guys,

Look at below...They are working fix kicked by admin errors.;)

I can play mp with pb off workaround till they fix it.:cool:

It's more of a "zoom level" thing.

M makes the minimap less mini.

N changes the zoom level.

It helps alot in certain situations. Especially when I don't know the map at all.

Can you control the opacity of the map like the old BF games?

Hell, I kind of laughed when it happened to me last night. I was on one of the [H]ard servers...I think Rush 1...and I didn't realize that this was some prevalent glitch so when it happened to me I figured "Well, I don't blame them. I was stinking the joint pretty good. Their servers. Their call." ;)
 
Now MP and SP won't launch, sits at "Joining Server" and "Initializing Game", respectively. Running IE9 32-bit in Admin mode.

Same thing for me except with eyefinity. All the team markers are stuck on the left.

FYI I'm using CAT 11.10 rev 3 (no CAP) on an unlocked/overclocked 6950. I have had that black screen problem once.

Thanks for the info. I was running 11.10pre3 with cap3 and it was a stutter fest till I uninstalled cap3. I just did a nice fresh install of w7 running 11.10 pre3 and I don't wanna go making a mess of my install already :)
