Age of Conan

I have made threads about the graphics of a number of games. Character graphics and animations are very important to me even more then enviroments. That is one reason I like EQ2 over both WoW and LoTRO. I love the character look of EQ2. Well I just started AoC and I love it. Here is a shot of my first character. AoC has both great character and enviroment graphics. This is shot is not at maxed graphics it is a mix of medium and high settings and it still looks fantastic I get 45 to 60 fps with this look.

I'm getting 50-60  fps in tortage, 80fps out side the city I have my set custom but it looks great!

what are your system specs? i am pretty confused, because i have a "close" to top end computer and if i put it on shader model 3.0 (and my gfx card supports 4.0!) it drops fps to uplayable, and i can barely have it set to medium on shader model 2.0 and get good fps. (i get around 60 if i leave it on medium, no shadows)

That's awesome.

something's not right there, man. I use shader model 3.0 on an old X1650 AGP, and get 30 FPS average at med-high settings.

Have you tried different drivers? Used drivercleaner or a similar program in safe mode to eliminate conflicts?

OP: I really like the looks of your character...very well designed, and realistic, IMO. Don't you just LOVE the character creation system?

Sounds like you're using an ATI card. If you are, than that's your problem.

I certainly don't want to start some serious debate or whatever, but I'm curious why a Christian would even play this game. Violence, language, sex and sexism against women (not that I have any problem with these things). Don't you guys usually rail against these types of entertainment?

I agree on the ATI card point.

On topic:

Good screenie OP, but I don't remember REH writing about Kenny Rogers..?
