Nexuiz Performance Issues Debian 10 Buster

[maximus1978]

Nexuiz is performing crappy even on low graphics settings.

I will post my hardware soon.

Nexuiz works better in Debian 9 Stretch.
Maybe the minimum requirements went up in Nexuiz version.
I will post all the info here soon.

Hi,

I was playing Nexuiz on PhenomII x4 945 + Radeon HD5670 (open source radeon driver), Debian 7..10 -> worked ok, obviously with moderate gfx settings.

GeForce 8500 GT is definitely not a king of performance, but it should handle Nexuiz quite well -> what driver You're using?
Are You playing in full-screen or a windowed mode? What resolution?
