Ã‚Â· ET Tuning Tips & Tricks

/com_maxfps X
Because of a bug in the QuakeIII engine its possible to lock your FPS
at a certain number.
Example: /com_maxfps 43 - /com_maxfps 76 - /com_maxfps 125 - /com_maxfps 333

TIP: the examples are "bugged" they give you a little boost. fps 333 is the best if you use this 1 in for example a tj server you will feel it that you can jump further then normal. 333 is hard to reach. With 333 fps you can do the jumps easier.

Lies, proof

i most i can get is 140fps steady on venice

Lol no one gets 333 FPS :lol:

/Com_maxfps 333 = For trickjumping
/Com_maxfps 125 = Easier headshos (personal experience)
/Com_maxfps 85 = Default, anything under this will lag you!
/Com_maxfps 1 = Ping goes 999 hehe

To check your current FPS in game type /Com_maxfps and it says what you are using and the default amount, the better your graphics card the better your FPS!

Lies, proof

These sentences don't have any sense... SOMETIMES i have 333 fps, i have Athlon64 3200+, 1GB ram and Geforce 7600GS, so don't think i have bad hardware for ET..

by **jarski_1516** » Sun Dec 31, 2006 14:50

No, only SUPERCOMPUTER could have 333 fps, no that kind of computer..

Loll Jarski are you joking or what?
If you are Not joking, do a little more research instead of talking nonsense :wink:

i have same computer exept graphic card : radeon x800 gto
but i have com_maxfps 76 so i never see if i reach 333, but i have sometimes less than 76, according to the map and the people playing.

for what i know, reach 333 fps is possible but you can't play with com_maxfps 333 without a very great computer :wink:

Ok, I try to make my post clearer and write little more..

Heh, you can have fps 333 or more temporary, I believe that. But the point is that FPS locking gives you advantace then when you have that locked FPS constantly, it dont help if you have that 333 FPS for one second in some situations (like then when you look to the sky) but like I said, if you want to have advantace you have to have that 333 all time when you play.. That situation needs more power than any computer have nowdays (dont count supercomputers like RIKEN, which make over quadrillion calculations per second, lets stay at "homecomputers"

) and I thought that we are talking about constant FPS and not temporary situations, that what I ment when I said that no computer can have that FPS..

PS: But if some1 of you have new quadcore Intel and 2x 8800Gtx I maybe be wrong, because I have seen that kind of homecomputer, but havent seen when some1 have played ET with it and dont know how much that kind of machine would make FPS in ET..

My fps is set to 125...under that its hard for me to aim :-P

by **jarski_1516** » Wed Feb 21, 2007 1:01

Any1 has LCD displays? I just want to give 1 tip. Most LCD displays have max. 75 hz and that means that those can show 75 pictures in second=FPS Its good to lock your FPS to 76 then, you dont have to lock that to 200 because LCD only shows max. 75 frames/sec.. Uhhhhmmmm, I lost my point now, dont even know anymore what was my point, but let this be just information so you know

i got lcd... and set res on 1280x1024 but i set max ffame on 999 :twisted:

but my standard frames is 40-120 but sometime i saw more than 300 ... My Pc i older than half members

...AMD Xp 2500+@3200+,1GB DDR400 and R430 [X800GTO] but if somebody want get more fps must set more memory to ET becouse standard ET take really low memory Cya Fragerzzzz

i did it...my pc crashed every 5 min in ET but my fps is about 400-500
so i lowered it to half and now i have 90-120 fps. sometimes for exemple oasis 20-80 fps

Playing with 333 fps is bloody annoying, i just get connection interrupted message so i capped it on 125. Wouldn't be such a bother but it covers body of my next victims :/

I use an LCD with 1600x1200 and 60Hz. When I lock the FPS to a Value over 60 i get lag, although my Grafik Card can Handle this.
My Internet Connection is DSL with 384kB, could this be the Reason ?

by **addshore** » Fri Apr 06, 2007 8:12

Im on a 20.1" wide
1680X1050 60hz
Im running at 333 fps cause other wise i lag.
I tired it on 1000 and it still ran but the connection lost thing was flicking in my face all the time.

i never get any more lag than about 40-70
and only on a 2mb connection

If you ever got 0fps though that means your screen would never update so you would never ever get any movment on screen again. Just be stuck at 0fps

by **Ammz** » Fri Apr 06, 2007 10:55

Actually no:P

The computer still works but you haeno movement on your screen. When the computer can make so more FPS you get movement back

!

Yeh i know

But still that would be funny

LoL?!
333 fps for trickjump...so bad.
I think the best fps for trickjumping max 90.
And in Frag:Need min 120 fps for nice play and very very much HS!
But this only my Idead...

May be that this bad but I like it in this manner.

333 FPS for Trickjump?
