NEED HELP: extremly low fps in hardware mode
0.3 fps in hardware mode, i get much better performance on other games and also used to get much better performance in doom, it just recently started doing that.
vid_maxfps is set to 200, i already tried reinstalling it wich didnt help and same problem with qzdoom and zandronum.
the pointer moves normal and in zandronum the menu works fine

This is a longshot but try doing gl_renderbuffers 0 in the console. It fixed my FPS problems and made everything so much smoother.

0.3 fps sounds more that something isn't working right. Are you using Windows 10 with the Creator's update? That update seems to whack OpenGL, according to other reports I got.

The creators update made it so that GZDoom took ages to start for me while sitting with a black screen (if it started at all). I reinstalled my drivers and the problem went away. I'm not sure how easy it is to find/install intel drivers. My card is an nVidia one.

Someone should create a gaming OS. Something designed specifically just for gaming and everything games need. That way, the only updates you get are to fix problems with games running and not "fix" things with the OS overall, something MS loves doing constantly.
