Title: Bad Company 2 Performance Boost
Post by: Action on April 15, 2010, 09:37:38 PM
Hey just wanted to let everyone know in case you do not already.  If you edit your settings.ini for BC2 and change the dxVersion from dxVersion=Autio to dxVersion=9 you will see a huge boost in performance especially on older cards.  I have a single 275GTX and it plays ok on Auto execpt I started noticing an occasional screen flashing.  I did some research on the problem and was told to force it to use directx9. When I forced it to use directx9 the flashing went away and then I noticed I basically doubled my FPS.  I am now over 100FPS constantly.  Before I would dip down in the 50s during alot of activity.  So far I have not noticed much in the terms of graphic loss either.... The game's graphics are still beautiful!

I would not mind seeing screen shots showing DX9 vs DX10 or 11.  But to my eyes I have not noticed much of change, in fact might actually look a little bit better ??
