i dnt think u can u r gettin pretty good fps already wit a pretty outdated card already so idk maybe sumone else mite have a better answer
lol mine used to be 12 until i updated my driver. 30 is a good fps number
yeah try updating your drivers!
30 FPS?! I never settle for anything less than 80.
Errr, might be me but I only get good fps when my settings are maxed out lawl.
Low = 8-23 fps
Maxed = 33-97fps (on average)
Low = 8-23 fps
Maxed = 33-97fps (on average)
Get a better graphics card,the FX5200 is horrible.
The 7600 GS from BFG Tech still utilizes the AGP slot and will give you much, much better fps rates.
@ Archangel
- most likely his cpu will bottleneck the 7600 gpu if it's as old as I think it is.
You should try an fps config - create 'autoexec.cfg' in your dod cfg folder and paste the following in the text file:

*Side note... the fps config above will make things look uglier. You can further boost your fps with mat_picmip 4 instead of 2 as above... but it'll look like you're playing in a playdoh world (and is highly illegal for league play).
