- Upgrade your computer.

- Update your graphics drivers.

- Turn off v-sync by going to control panel/ display properties/ settings/ advanced/ "video card name"/ additional properties then go to the Direct3D & OpenGL tabs. Look for v-sync and turn it to "always off".

- Go to control panel/ display properties/ settings/ advanced/ monitor and change your monitor refresh frequency to the highest supported that doesn't shrink the size of your screen.

- Lower details in options such as textures, resolution, model detail, sound quality, lighting effects, etc.

- If you have a Nvidia G-force card and use Windows XP/2000 you could use try Reforce .

- Overclock parts of your computer, e.g. change FSB settings in bios to overclock the CPU if it isn't locked, overclock your graphics card (for ATI cards use www.techpowerup.com/atitool and for nVidia use http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/978420955/1 ).

- Lastly , always scan your computer and close those unwanted application in Task manager.

OK Im new here. And now i ask dumb question for what is good Improving FPS

[Enter]

so you can see your graphics 'faster' than others if u have high fps , 'run' slightly faster than others etc ...

[Master]

Thank You! Now im smarter, but what FPS u have Enter i have like 70. Is that too low?

[SikWar]

70 is good enuf but ideal fps is between 120-160... for me anyways... there are some ppl who can have max fps which i think depends on each server... last time there was someone wit 250 fps... which was the cap for tht particular server... it all depends on the things above mentioned...

[Enter]

yeah , my fps too was around 70-90 ; depends.. my rig sux tho as well as my isp :X

[Toilet]

Enter can u contact out of the server as im ip banned? I need your help lol you seem to know what you talking about as i dont

[SolRav]

u cant cap somebodies FPS on a game. The fps is what your personal computer displays the game at. I have a top of the line pc and i run at about 70-140fps depending. And i have a p4 3.4 ghtz PC Hyper threaded with 1 gig ddr2 ram and a 8mb cable connection, which is very fast. i could get awesome fps out HB if i had a gfx card but im using the intel intergrated gfx processor which in turn sux ass.

LOL but im almost 99% sure that u cant make it to wear the cap u can have on a server is 80fps cause everybodies PC runs diff.

[Toilet]

Hb united did it. Cut the sarcastic comments please.

[Enter]

dont think its a good idea for those who have a good comp like kinger , hobo etc.. must be fair to those who have good rig i guess

[Bloodsho]

i just need a new video card/ram i htink then ill get higher FPS...i have 128 mb video and 512 ram...and with the trouble shoot change i only hover around 100..GAYYY

[kinger]

we have now added some sprite mods on the website www.helbreath.biz which can help as well.

[Bloodsho]

doesnt seem like they help at all >.>

[Dragonis]

There are only 4 sprites out of that 6 sprite pack kinger set up that actually do some good. They are white footsteps, no trees, and cut off roof tops, and the Different Spell Effects (Not the pack that says HBU). Having only those four boosted my average FPS from 40ish, to 50ish at all times. While adding the others in (Big items and Grid) actually lowered my fps to 25-30ish.

so take my advice and only use the good ones

[kinger]

thats why i placed them in folders so you can choose which you want to use

[Dragonis]

I know kinger im just letting people know which are the good ones to use

[GetKrunky]

thanks for this post ive managed to get my fps to go from 60ish to 160 max

[kikoo]

Is there a way to edit the angel pak and not see them (or not make them glitter)? They lag me down to 60 fps and make me run slow
