Have you tried installing DirectX 9? I read that it provides better DirectX 7 emulation than the newer versions.

now that I think of it, why was the FPS meter removed? I never saw it for a while!

It was just disabled by default, you can re-enable it in previous versions.

It probably was disabled because only developers care about it.

I think I have a file with a modded v8.1 (which includes some bugfixes made by Juan ), I don't have the original one though

Getting a consistent FPS of 15-20 while at 1680x1050 fullscreen, occasionally dropping as low as 5. At 1360x768 windowed I'm getting consistent FPS of 30 with occasional dips to 25.

Direct X 11 (uncertain if that's even a factor with SCP:CB, but better throw it in)

Absolutely psyched for v1.0, can't wait for the fix.

The fix is on the main page now.

The fix improved my fps to pre 1.0 conditions (15-20 fps more or less). I think it's the best I can get for this game with my graphic card. At least it's playable now!

That's nice to hear!

I'll make a tool that lets players disable some stuff to find out what needs optimizing.

Wow, that fix did awesome work! Its running better then EVER for me! Now i can finally get scared...
