I don't understand in the guide how to create a Performance log..

Do you need other infos ?




Another little question, how can i disable the infestation light reflections when the infestation is HIGH DETAILS ? Personally is not nice to see
all these reflections while running through the map.

    Your system isn't too bad, but I'd get more memory if I was you, 4GB for that kind of system is not enough.

    I have a 3 years old build and got 6GB DDR3... You should have 8GB or more.

    And your FPS issues in NS2 are perfectly normal. I got an I7 with 6GB DDR3 and a Geforce 580 GTX, wich is basically enough to run any other modern games that just got released like it butter. Yet I get HORRIBLE FPS in NS2... (5-10) in big fights.

    We all know there is a problem with the game performance-wise, and we all are waiting for the DEVs to fix it.

    Only people that have reasonable performance have like 4.5 to 5ghz I7 chips with 6+GB ram and insane gfx cards. It shouldn't take that much to run the game.

    Give it some time and the DEVs will fix this.

    Bull######. I have i5-3570k 3,8ghz non oc 8gb1600mhz ram but a cheap HD Radeon 7750 gfx. I have average fps around 70fps and lowest i've seen maybe 45fps on medium graphics. When i play all cpu 4 cores are around 40-70% stress, gfx is bottlenecking but still manages get perfectly playable fps.

    Its a bit odd, as a system likes yours running at 3.6Ghz should at the very least manage around 40-50FPS late game. On the topic of creating a plog you simply play a game and once in game you type plog_all in the console, once you're done playing there will be a client-somedate.plog file in your "%appdata%\Natural Selection 2" folder


    The infestation "blob reflections" are only visible on the blobs (rich infestation), I'm afraid...
