qqx76b Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 hey guys, I just just downloaded the game. but as soon as I enter the park my frame rate is so choppy and even having the quality all the way down will do nothing.

Michiyo Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 What video card do you have? City of Heroes uses an older graphics API "OpenGL", which is not well supported on integrated GPUs offered from Intel. If you are using a dedicated graphics card do you know the model?

Michiyo Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 Yeah, unfortunately, any of the 'intel (R) UHD graphics' options are going to have limited OpenGL support, and therefore limited ability to play City. This is not something that can be fixed without re-writing the graphics engine from scratch with a more recent API, or Intel working to add better OpenGL support to their drives.

Michiyo Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 The only real option is to not use the Intel Integrated GPU. If you are using a laptop your options are VERY limited, unless you happen to have a laptop that allows for External GPUs over thunderbolt. Otherwise you would have to get a computer with a dedicated graphics processor by nVidia, or AMD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
