I mostly use fraps for screen shots since print screen doesn't seem to work for me for some reason. I'll try in game fps to check didn't know it was there. Can you give more of a how to?
Close Grimrock.
With Notepad (or your prefered editor), open My Documents\Almost Human\Legend of Grimrock\grimrock.cfg
Replace "debugInfo = false" with "debugInfo = true".
Save the grimrock.cfg, close the editor, start Grimrock.

FPS should be now shown in the lower left corner.

I am running Intel integrated at the moment but a friend just upgraded his super pc and has a spare 5450.
My pc is crap but what I've read online it should work on my machine.
Is anyone running this game on one?
With my setup now I have to run lowest res and settings and only getting about 10fps. It is not doing AH's game any justice. I'm on level 10 now but looking forward to future content and play thrus as I was not able to do lv 7 iron door, would slow down to about 8fps and could only get 27 to 28 of the missles but was able to do all others so far.
also, it seems the most effective method in gaining more FPS is resolution reduction (tested it here viewtopic.php?f=12&t=2324&start=10#p26685, e.g. texture quality reduction was completly ineffective). You could try to use the unsupported modes 800x600 or 640x480 by manual setting them in the "grimrock.cfg". Worked for me in windowed mode (only), but be prepared for some graphical glitches with font sizes & inaccessability of option menu (but you don't need to be there).
