Deadly Sten at 333fps

by **Ferocious** » Sun Apr 15, 2007 20:06

Even though the sten is deadly enough, its even more deadly at 333fps apparently.

According to Wikipedia's ET Page - Tells you Pretty Much everything about ET.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfenstein:_Enemy_Territory

Sten Mk.IIS - Silenced automatic weapon. Accurate even at long range. Same fire rate as MP40 and Thompson but it has to be fired in bursts since it overheats after a continuous 15 shots of fire. However high FPS may cause the Sten to overheat less easily - a steady rate of 200 FPS will result the Sten to overheat only after 19 shots, and 333 FPS lets the covert op fire 22 bullets in a row. Thirty-two round magazine. 14 damage to the torso, 50 to the head. 6 rounds per second.

Hmm, Intresting... i dont have 333fps to test this

i am lucky if i have 125

. And Pistols Fire as fast as u can click! they have no firing rate and can be faster then an anyother weapon.

thats nice info lol
me and lady got 90max when we are in small space :hyper:

that is because everything is best at 333 fps it is a bug in the engine it makes TJ much easier

I had 666:2 fps when there was 20-30 people on a big, non-minas tirith looking map, and 1v1 i was winning without hp drain... But this is impossible to have 333 fps when second enemy is coming.

by **addshore** » Sun Apr 15, 2007 20:50

its not imposible to have 333fps

I have it all the time. Mainly because theother day i set that as the max in et.

Ill got see how many shots i get out of it.

com_fpsmax 333 or com_maxfps 333

ok here are the results from my test

@ 50 fps

1. 15 shots
2. 15 shots
3. 15 shots

@ 90 fps

1. 15 shots
2. 15 shots
3. 15 shots

@ 333 fps

1. 19 shots
2. 22 shots
3. 22 shots

@ 666 fps

1. 19 shots
2. 20 shots
3. 20 shots

----------------------

So according to my little test yes you do get more shots at 33 fps but any higher and you will get less again.

Every shot is at normal firing rate until u reach 333fps its proven on the website, its just a bug in the quake 3 engine which is used in ET and Other games :!:

by **addshore** » Thu Apr 19, 2007 20:22

its not just at 333 though.

If u pick the right number you can get more shots out of sten than that.

by **Ferocious** » Fri Apr 20, 2007 22:43

yeah probably maybe and a high value which is currently impossible to get

by **addshore** » Tue Apr 24, 2007 20:04

maybe try it at 3333 fps

or 33333

I need a new g card and mine is only 1 month old

Heh, guess who wrote that part of the article

ET's FPS is always locked into 1000/x where x is an integer, and any lower values of x than 2 will cause lag - connection interrupted, so 333 fps is the best for everything except sniping and pistol shooting.

The most recent ClanBase config has however locked the FPS to from 40 to 125, so this cannot be exploited anymore. High fps also caused less SMG spread.

EDIT: Oh yes, and the same thing works with MG42 too, though the difference is much smaller. We tested it with our clanmates monster computer - 1000 fps has no overheat at all. However it's impossible to play with it as the Quake 3 engine can handle only 333 without problems..

Second EDIT: The lower Sten overheat values are 1000/(number between 1 and 6), which are the exact same that give lower spread for other weapons, too.

For some reason 1000/14 = 71 gives the lowest pistol/sniper recoil.

haha nice to know but can my vidcard handle 333 fps o_O geforce 7600 gs..

by **GoldenBullet** » Tue Jun 05, 2007 21:16

geforce 7600 gs DID U STOLE MINE!? I have same card xD

by **Lufhasa** » Wed Jun 06, 2007 7:42

Heh I have Radeon 9600 128mb xD & 50-90 fps in the game

by **addshore** » Wed Jun 06, 2007 8:36

I ahve a

Radeon X1960 Pro 266mb Gddr3 ( i think)

I get up to about 333 when playing on a half full server.
down to about 150 when full big maps also bring it down -.-

my geforce 7950(dual sandwich 2 gigs sli) stays locked to any framerate i want. except there are like 10 players in front of me and jump around, then it drops a bit. But if i lower some detail it stays locked always. I usually have 1280x1024 cause my lcd cant handle more.

So which value do you lock it to?

Its bit brkoen thou, over heats and so on...

Topic has sailed to offtopic conversation... do something about it or open other topic about "ur graphics driver/card"

by **NightMare** » Wed Jun 06, 2007 12:35

i had that with my geforce 2 mx 400

yes i played ET on that one.. MUCH MUCH MUCHHHHHHHHH graphic errors with that one
