Heroes of Newerth performance

[dfoxpro]

Finally I am able to run HoN with acceptable fps. Sure not as good as with directx rendering, but much better then before. Now I am using catalyst 12.9 beta.

I have a RadeonD 4250 (mobo embedded) and with the new driver catalyst 13.1 Legacy the FPS in HON gets better specialy in the all team fight

Even after i set "vid_drawParticleSystems 0" performance doesn't go up. How is this possible? I completely disable all visual effects and still get the same performance! Who can explain why is this happening and how to fix this?

hi i use nvidia card and the performance is ok.

I want to report about performance drop. I haven't played for a while so i can't say when regression started. Now I am using catalyst 12.11. FPS drops from 60 to 30 and to <20 in team fight. I tried to downgrade to catalyst 12.9 and to use openbox instead of compiz but it doesn't help. HoN is unplayable on my laptop again. Looks like now it is not catalyst fault.

Help me to solve this bug out and do ATi Linux driver a little better once again

So, i managed to get some time for testing (you know what i mean, right ) and have to confirm that HoN with 12.9 driver runs a LOT better (50% boost in performance, higher lowest framerates, smaller framedrops in teamfights) while using AMD A8 APU.

I've noticed a nice performance boost too, however mainly due to the recent HoN client update, still running Catalyst 12.8

Numbers and specs please?

I have hp laptop with 1st gen core i3 cpu, amd 6370m video and 6GB of ram. Now HoN running on mid settings near 60 fps and its never drops below 30 even in huge team fights. HoN was completely unplayable with my video card until catalyst 12.9 beta release.
