I have spent the last two evenings trying to troubleshoot RE2 (sourcenext) FPS problems and have solved nothing. The game just doesn't feel very good and FRAPS showed that it is locking at 25FPS. I have tried compatibility options, and running as admin. I have even tried to make my GPU actually try to work when the game is running but it only gave me 1 extra FPS. The only thing that sort of works is having a stream on in the background, or something similar. This gives me 29FPS but suffers FPS drops all the way down to 22. This worries me as I feel like I have looked everywhere and there isn't one single real solution to it. I don't know if it means much, but RE3 (mediakite) runs flawless. I read that I should try to install patch 1.1 and I'm not sure if that did anything. I'm also not sure if it even installed correctly though. Clicking on update doesn't actually seem to do anything, but clicking the bio2 exe loads the game. Not sure if that means it loaded patch 1.1 or not as I can't find anywhere to verify which version. I really don't know where to go from here. Supposed to be learning Leon A any% route this weekend with my friend who is a big RE console guy. Going to feel like a complete idiot after hyping up the PC version all week. I can hear him now, "So this is the big great PC version everyone runs, eh?" Maybe I'll tell some lies, "Oh yeah, actually 25FPS is optimal, you are just not used to it." T.T
