FPS issue with ISBoxer

(No Forum for my game on here even though it is an ISBoxer supported game so wasn't sure where to place it)

I am a complete idiot when it comes to computers, but decided to try this program out for fun.
Let me start off by saying I play Dark Age of Camelot with ISBoxer.
My issue is when I MultiBox 5 accounts, everytime (without fail) 2 of the 5 accounts have Extremely low FPS compared to the other three. I could care less if it was any window but the window I focus on for almost the entire duration of me playing. I have talked to three other people about this and they said when they use ISBoxer, they have the same exact issue. I am just curious if there is any setting or anything I could do to make it so my FPS aren't lowered so much on those two (Or if I can't get rid of the problem is there a way to isolate it to any other window other than my main focused one?)

Sorry if I am jumping around, just trying to explain the issue fully.

Thanks ahead of time,

-Yeias

Re: FPS issue with ISBoxer

The Games/Other forum is good for any game specific issue not covered by a specific game forum.

FPS issues are usually CPU or GPU related, so requires a bit of monitoring to determine which, and then try something to see if you can fix it.
http://www.isboxer.com/wiki/HOWTO:Tweak ... ottlenecks

I find that troubleshooting with the following CPU Strategy works well.
Set the Background FPS to 15, Forground FPS to 30, Set the Master Slot to <NO SLOT>, and then from the drop down, select the last option "Select no CPUs, let the game do it (HyperThreading)"

In the Wizard, it looks like:

If you find this actually plays well, then you can try increasing the foreground FPS further up to 60 FPS, leaving the remaining parameters the same (note: when you go back through the Wizard is does not show you the selections you previously made so you need to set these things every time).

Re: FPS issue with ISBoxer

4 instances 10 fps minim 60 max CPU strategy "Select all CPU with every window" works just fine for me on win7 phenom II x965 @ 3.4gh 8g ddr3 and sapphire 7770hd

fps are dropping on the main when in zerg of over 50 ppl to about 30 and in over 100 ppl down to 15 but i guess i need a CPU upgrate soon anyway ...

oh and with DxNothing window showing all 4 toons up all time ....

Re: FPS issue with ISBoxer

By 60 do you mean 60/60 or 60/30?

I'd try 60/30 or 60/15 (the second number is the background fps).
