For those who want more FPS

[madmattco]

During my meddling I have found a way to increase my fps not only on my slaves but my master aswell.
Some of you might go for this and some might not.
I don't find it critical to have my ui displayed on my slaves when im on my master. I can see everything that goes on with my slaves in my masters window. Therefore i turn off my ui on my slaves via a alt-z macro and whenever i switch to a slave it turns that current window's ui on and turns the other off. I have seen about a 30 fps gain using this.

Post your feedback and let me know what you all think.

Sounds good :) i didn't realise it would cause any kind of FPS increase.

maybe we can try it out on switch - so that it works flawlessly :) (I noticed now you are doing this? but haven't posted how.. that follows with my next post)

Found it...

UIParent:Hide()

from http://www.wowwiki.com/Removing_Blizzard_default_frames

So basically need to Show on active window and hide on 'other', and this needs to be updated with window swapping.

This would be super easy to do via a mapped key macro action. :)

hmm... definitely going to have to try that in org and see, should be really obvious if it helps!

[dancook]

/script UIParent:Hide()
/script UIParent:Show()

I just added it to the jambamaster/follow out of laziness and it works - not overly sure about the fps gain yet. But then I do have two video cards so it might not make much difference to me.

Ok I can't play like this :) you miss all the things like ready checks and role checks etc..

This is true Dan. the main reason i posted this was for people who need to squeeze performance out of their systems. Take me for example. Im rockin an AMD 5400+ dual core with 4gig of ddr2 800. im overclocking from 2.4Ghz to 2.9 Ghz and I use a NVIDIA GTX 460 thats overclocked to 850Mhz core and 1950 mem.

My GPU is fine its just my cpu thats my bottleneck
