Hi,
My PC runs HALO PC pretty nicely and mostly in its entirely for the most part. However the fram rate starts to slow down and everything gets a little laggy when there are spark effects (Assault Rifle) or plasma mist (when plasma weapons overload.) Also on my PC the Spartans' helemt faceplate is not gold as it should be but just black. Small graphical effects like that.
Can someone help? Thank You,

I think what might help with your particle effects problem is, maybe you need more ram
and for the black helmet visor, i think you might need a newer/better graphics card.

Can you post your computer specs please? CPU, ram and graphic card.

yes, it really helps if we know whether youre running a 3 year old dell p3 1Ghz (me) or a new custom built, amd 3500+, 256 gfx card MAYHEM machine (me in a month!)

you could try turning particles to "low" or "off". that would fix the effects problem

it sounds to me like you dont have a very good video card. itll run, but not at full options and not with all the graphical effects.

It's your graphics card, or your drivers. I have the same problem, and it can be fixed with a simple 128mb or so. if u are on a laptop (like me), just update your drivers, hopr that it works, and if it doesn't, we just cant help you.

Sorry to be blunt, but your computer's graphics suck.

Don't you think this is a rather bold statement if you consider that he didn't even post his system specifications yet?
