Re: Custom resolution causing lagg?

Thanks for a lot of the answers. So here we go:

@Skull, my graphic card: geforce 310m 1gb
others; ram - 4gb, intel core i5 4x2,27GHz, windows 7 64bit,

@Delight, well I have normally 125fps but it's not stable, when I start to running and start shooting I have little fps drop, especially in plusN config with lots of spam, even drop to 75 but goes higher very fast after the shooting.

@epsi, didn't changed it before,
r_swapInterval 0
r_displayrefresh 0
here's the config that I used to play, http://www.speedyshare.com/files/29539756/teraz.cfg

@Jeff, ye, that's the thing that I pointed out, pretty strange but with some sense in fact.

@Pope, lucky you Winking

@Diablo, ofc I use com_maxfps 125, i don't think i touched something in cfg because I do only commands which I am absolutely sure how it's works, if I experiment with things - I am always fixing it after. how many fps i got? 75-125, depends on gaming style.

Re: Custom resolution causing lagg?

These fps drops can make you laggy (unsynchronised). So in your case low resolution (and other fps sensitive settings) should help. Could be driver settings though.

Ps. Similar effect is caused by bottleneck in packet flow due to overloaded network.

Re: Custom resolution causing lagg?

I see in youre config seta xp_delagweapons "0" in e+ 2.1 was set to 15 on default and now its set to 0 so chainge back to 15 and test, that worked for me.

Re: Custom resolution causing lagg?

ewlol jeff?

delagweapons does nothing else as drawing your railgun before the server says it really shot and where it did. It is inprecise and causes the rail through effect.

now comes the funny part of it:

Quote:
On this setting in the most of the public servers I've couldn't hit a single shot directly to a body, I had to aim to the place where enemy was about 0,2-0,5 sec ago.

It is exactly other way round, you point on an enemy, click and wait for the server response to see the rail. It is more of a mind trick to be capable of hitting with unlagged and without delagweapons, then other way round, pointing at somebody, see the rail drawn and wait for server response if he is dead (and after all, especially on slopes or stairs the rail print with delagweapons 15 is somewhere else then you see it).

And now comes most funny, before delagweapons was introduced, everyone played without and once you understand hwo it technically works, you play as if on localserver.

btw, the ql command is cg_predictlocalrailshots Winking

so we can be quite sure this is probably not the problem.

Re: Custom resolution causing lagg?

well, ur game was always laggy coz of that resolution, ur video card if im right can't manage good that resolution coz is an igp (integrated graphic card),as u should know, igp card sux ballz lol,they share system ram memory so goin up with res with such card was always a trouble, so if games drops many fps, like u said between 70-125 it make unstable packets then packet loss, lag etc, lowering the resolution to 800x600 it goes good coz the video card can manage that resolution much better so it's more stable on 125 fps and don't lose packets n u don't lag coz of video, custom resolution doesn't make anyone lag as long as the video card can manage without problems that resolution. but, this now, it's explained only in part, coz on some servers it was goin good, like asphixland, and even coz after it gone bad for all servers, that is the thing i can't explain to myself, maybe on servers where u wasn't having that problem u were \execing others cfg coz of cw n stuff ?

Re: Custom resolution causing lagg?

I would rather say that war servers and 1on1 servers are out of consideration because of less enemys to be calculated?

btw, lower r_railsegmenthlength to 128 or something to make sure not to many rails like on era dm17 distract your gpu? Tongue

Re: Custom resolution causing lagg?

well, i will check the command anyway when i back to my table, now sitting in my backyard and chilling.

one note: not PC, a notebook. this may lagg me a bit but damn, not that fckin' much ;]

never, the same cfg for railonly/plus.

all war servers are ok, 1vs1 50/50, r2 duel =lagg, r4e = all ok, strange.

r_railsegmenthlength 128 i will check it,
but yes, massive hack'n'slash servers like era are out cuz unplayable.

Re: Custom resolution causing lagg?

rainbow, maybe coz u use some ""excessive"" settings..and i don't mean e+ lol u got not a pc but a war machine, it can let u play crysis really easily, so quake is like breakfast for it but...as old quake is, he doesn't use not even the 10 percent of our pc/laptops, so even with 8 gb of ram and that cpu and video card, it could be that those settings becomes hard or heavy to be managed n created bullshits in quake...looks impossible to me too i know but, well, try doesn't cost anything so if u want u can try in this way :: >>>
>>

seta com_hunkMegs "128" or "192" never seen a map that needs more than 128 mb, i use 192
seta r_displayRefresh "0" this is useless to put on 0 coz will be always 60 but...better 0seta com_soundMegs "32" this and zone megs with 32 mb will be already more than enoughseta com_zoneMegs "32"

well, i think u already tryed with those command but i can't know, so i try to suggest what passes for my mind, it may be that ur know very good all commands of quake and i tell u to use 3 easy commands but, i dunno u and dunno what u tryied and what u didn't so, i just try to fix that hoping to help. lemme know how it goes Big grin

Re: Custom resolution causing lagg?

go to graphic card control panel thingy. make should you set quake to run with global settings in the 3d setting manager. it might work if your lucky. (it kinda defaults it out again.)

Your using an nvidia right?

I had some problem with resolution i found what ever i did in quake did not fix it but i cant quite remember it but something i did in control panel.. :\
