This topic is about increasing your FPS. Most low FPS is caused by "gameguard" & bad computers and this is aimed to tackle that problem.

[RCFG] - Archetype's recommended config.xml
If you care about good graphics in gunz this is not for you.
With this config.xml made by me personally, IJJI GunZ - even with gamguard - can run smoothly on, for example, my crappy 6 year old dell pc! I play with a (somewhat) consistent 50 FPS and manage to maintain a reputation as one of the top players - so you should be able too as well if your skill is great enough!
Instructions:
1) Locate C:\ijji\ENGLISH\Gunz\ and open the "config.xml" file in notepad. Copy and paste this over the existing part in your config.xml file:
Code:
<VIDEO>
<WIDTH>640</WIDTH>
<HEIGHT>480</HEIGHT>
<COLORBITS>8</COLORBITS>
<GAMMA>255</GAMMA>
<FULLSCREEN>TRUE</FULLSCREEN>
<REFLECTION>false</REFLECTION>
<LIGHTMAP>false</LIGHTMAP>
<DYNAMICLIGHT>false</DYNAMICLIGHT>
<SHADER>false</SHADER>
<CHARACTORTEXTURELEVEL>2</CHARACTORTEXTURELEVEL>
<MAPTEXTURELEVEL>8</MAPTEXTURELEVEL>
<EFFECTLEVEL>0</EFFECTLEVEL>
<TEXTUREFORMAT>8</TEXTUREFORMAT>
<NHARDWARETNL>false</NHARDWARETNL>
</VIDEO>
2) Run GunZ as usual.
Notes:
o If you attempt to change ANY options in-game, it will mess up your config.xml - see [ECFG] to learn how to change your options through config.xml

[DLFI] - Old dexlauncher version which decreases gameguard-induced FPS lag
Download link:
MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service
This is an old and discontinued version of dexlauncher which decreses the priority of gameguard and increases the priority of gunz.exe (something like that?). At any rate, it substantially reduces FPS lag for me. These features were removed from later versions of dexlauncher as they caused issues for some people, if it causes issues for you try the alternative program "Panchira's", below.
Instructions:
1) Place dexlauncher.exe in "C:\ijji\ENGLISH\Gunz\" folder
2) Open it and insert name and password
3) It will run gunz.exe for you, bypassing gunzlauncher.exe
ALTERNATIVE:
If you have problems with dexlauncher version, or do not want to use dexlauncher for whatever reason, try this program by Panchira:
http://www.gunzfactor.com/forums/att...rd_lag_fix.zip
Instructions:
1) Run Panchira's (from any location).
2) Run GunZ while Panchira window is open.
3) It will detect Gameguard and make some alterations to it's priorities.
