back 5 boxing STO
Posted: Sat Mar 10, 2012 5:24 am
I started 5 boxing STO in august 2011 and had a blast, as my previous posts said it was a bit of a challange since cryptic's engine wasn't all that fond of ISboxer.
But with some workarounds I had a fully functioning setup, it was a blast, i ofc ran it all on elite
Running 5 boxing on elite required patience, STO scales very strange it almost x5 all enemies you had to kill.
ok so some would say this is logical, 1 player, enemies x1, 5 players, enemies x5 but with settings on elite it became a death fest.
I whould have to charge in killing as many as i could before they killed me, rinse repeat and with repair costs this became less then fun so i put the settings down a notch and it became doable
Anyway, i am also 4boxing SWTOR but thought i could use some variance.
I setup all accounts on one PC tweeked with the graphics, my main has all maxed (AA is zero tho, dont need it), on my slaves i have textures on max but everything else on min.
Framerate is at steady 60 on my overclocked i5 with gtx590 and 12mb of memory, my screen is a 30" 2560x1600 so its pretty impressive how smoth things run all things considered.
today is time to setup my hotbuttons since I learned some new tricks with virtual key mapping in ISboxer which i think will work splendid in STO, time to test.
