Title: How to show FPS in BF2
Post by: Loaded on June 21, 2005, 06:44:24 PM
I thought I would post how to show FPS in BF2 all the time, since this seems to be one of the biggest things people would look out for. YES you can use “Fraps” to do this as well, but why have “another” program running if you don’t need it.

To show frames per second you need to add the line renderer.drawFps 1 into your profile that you play the game in, here is how to find that folder and how to add the line.

Look in... "My Documents\Battlefield 2 Demo\Profiles" for your profile that you use in game (it should be file name... 0001, 0002 or higher), if you wish you can put this line in all of them. BUT to check once you have opened up the folder you think is the right one click on "Profile Con File" and look for your game name, this way you know you are in the right profile. Ok back to where to add the line, open up the "Video Con File" and add the line like this (in Yellow below)...

renderer.drawFps 1


(yes I have most setting low or off)

Now just close the file and say "yes" and close all other folders. Every time you are playing BF2 you will see your FPS in RED at the top left of the screen, see pic.

OR after saying everything I have above, if you wish you can open up console and type renderer.drawFps 1 for each game you wish to see the FPS.
