How do yall deal with this ?
I use razor and it's made the game play a lil better, but there is still lag.
tried something called Iorbit seemed cool at first, but now my CPUs are at 100% often.
I don't know if it's due to Iorbit or if it's because i installed Open Sauce and turned on my Particles.

can you post your specs for us to examine?

you can try and disable all the graphic improvements os offers and see if that helps. also what screen resolution do you play on?

My Screen Res is 1440x900
how do i get to the OS settings ?

can't remember the command but lower resolution to 800x600.

that worked for a lil while then it started moving like cold syrup again
guess i'm just going to have to turn particles off again

You have an integrated graphics card (not to mention a very old and slow CPU and a GPU made by Intel). Your best luck is to turn all graphics settings to the lowest and play on the minimum video settings. You need a new PC if you want anything better.

Run it in windowed mode, on 800x600, with everything to low or off.

Windowed mode requires more resources, actually. Run it in Full screen 800x600 with everything off/low.

Which hardly makes any sense to me but I'll roll with it.

how do you have lower specs than me, but a higher resolution supported? O.O anyways, ive noticed my laptop over heating more with razer gamebooster running sometimes...

you need a good pc to use Open Sauce on halo ce but this is my old pc 5 yer old my 2 pc is bater so you need to update or more RAM may be 4 GB well do and a good graphics card did this help a bit

you don't need a good pc to run os if you disable all the graphical improvement os offers.also here is my specs

Current Mode: 1360 x 768 (32 bit) (60Hz)
Monitor: Generic PnP Monitor

It's also dependent on your screen size/resolution...

Your CPU is very weak and, assuming it hasn't just been missed out, you're using a rather old integrated graphics chipset.

Buying a cheap/(perhaps decent, though even a £20 modern card could probably handle Halo) discrete graphics card might help a bit, but your CPU is very weak and you probably just need a new PC.

jaz is right. and for future reference avoid intel graphics cards like the plague.

my old pc Card name: AMD Radeon HD 7850
Current Mode: 1200 x 1000 (64 bit) (70Hz)
and I can use os 100%
ram 22 gb
you do need good pc to use os 100% you do no that it in the readme txt that you get if you download os ok

i feel at this point i should say that os isn't a huge performance killer, spv3beta was just horribly optimized. masters has already addressed the concern however, and stated that it shouldn't be a problem for future releases

1200x1000? O_o (Strange resolution)

22 GB of RAM? O_o (unusually high)
Edited by Dumb AI on Oct 19, 2013 at 10:42 PM

22GB RAM is only possible with 2x8GB + 1x4GB + 1x2GB... Which is fail. Probably typo for 2 GB

I don't think any game requires 22 GB of RAM.

been working good since Open Sauce uninstall
was about to do a clean W7 install
