Make FFR lag less and Run faster

Ertrax · 03-10-2008, 06:16 PM

To put FFR to the max performance, useing whatever browser, is to set the Priority of the browser to Real Time. To do this Ctrl+Alt+Delete for the task manager, Goto "Processes" tab, Find your browser.

IEXPLORE.EXE = internet explorer

firefox.exe = firefox

(if you have more than on browser up, more than one of them will show on the processes list making it hard to pick the right one)

Right click whatever one you have, and go to "Set Priority" and you will have a list. It is set on normal for the standard setting, change it to anything higher and lag on ffr will most likely go away depending on your computer. Changing this will have no harm on your computer, it just focusses more of your computers power to your browser making it run faster, thus making the game run faster. You can do this to any program running slow on your computer, and do not end any of the processes if you dont know what they are. Glad I can try to help, feel free to post your results

I say no!!! I just tried it and it caused a serious lag

Ertrax · 03-10-2008, 07:30 PM

results may vary? lol, refresh the page after you set the priority to. Should not make performance worse.

**Sprite-** · 03-10-2008, 08:17 PM

I always do this. It works well.

darkness3608 · 03-10-2008, 08:21 PM

**SnS** · 03-10-2008, 08:23 PM

Maybe raise the priority but not up to Real Time?

Yeah... You need a really fast computer for MP not to lag...

With vista, even more so.

Hah, I'm running vista, and in my whole life, its lagged once, and I had AIM MSN and VC open, and in multiplayer, with 2 viewers talking during the song.

Wow, I have no life.

Uhm, I put this on today...I got ****ing 8 challenging AAA's and 2 Very challenging AAA's roofl.

Also if you have a dual core processor, you can set the affinity of everything to go to CPU 0 and your ie or firefox go to CPU 1.

theone_one · 03-15-2008, 06:45 PM

This actually only works IF you have the RAM and CPU for this..

If you try REALTIME and your computer lags to 100% CPU usage.. Or over 100,000 Ram usage.. you might try HIGHER not realtime..

**Netjet!** · 03-15-2008, 06:47 PM

Realtime doesnt work for me, because if i click it it just goes to higher. Also, we have 5 computers in our house, and when I did this, the internet went out on all of them.

2handpract · 03-16-2008, 10:24 AM

Your internet went out? lol. changing the priority of something doesent mess with the internet.

jonathanasdf · 03-16-2008, 02:35 PM

actually, this is not a very smart idea. Sure it speeds it up, but if your computer has < 1GB ram this could be risky.

First of all, you are taking resources away from essential processes. If you are using IE, like me, which is a resource hog, and using ~150mb of RAM already, setting the priority to the highest will almost always cause crashes in some programs, most likely in explorer.exe.

So, I would like to add, use at your own risk.

And NEVER, NEVER set a process' priority to below normal if you want to free space up. NEVER!

**-Laggy-** · 08-9-2008, 09:39 AM

Sure thing doc lol

ps ontopic, I just tried this and it seemed to make ffr run a bit smoother, thanks.

thechild · 08-9-2008, 09:44 AM

I'll try, but not realtime from what I'm reading.
