Re: Random Game crash

few things come to mind, firstly why is maxfps 166 different to what your autoexec says?
is it not managing to save the setting?
the file size limit for q3 configs is around 15kb. that autoexec alone is 15kb, what size is q3config?

besides that, i believe you should be using 125 as your maxfps, and it should match your maxpacket setting i think. dunno why, thats unrelated, just something i read here.

anyway, thats not your issue. the other thing i wonder (if so, you'd be the 3rd person today with this), is xp_drawconsole. it should be 0 and your autoexec says its 0, but if your maxfps is not being set then maybe this isnt either. please confirm what you get in game, type the command in your console to see the current value.

something else to try - move all your cfgs somewhere else and let it create new ones, see if it still happens. this will narrow it down a bit, then u know whether its a cfg issue or not.

Re: Random Game crash

ya I had already looked into xp_drawconsole , ingame says 0 as well , is 166 there because I was trying lower value to make sure it was not that , it seems that on 166 it runs longer than on 250 ... But on 250 my game feels more responsive , I always plaid with 250 before without problem ... And now my system is 10x better so idk why this issue now ..

Re: Random Game crash

I don't even know what to use autoexec for, I don't even have one I think and it looks like you have your whole cfg in your autoexec lol

But to make sure my cmds are correct I copy the e+ cfg into baseq3

Re: Random Game crash

min only works out of the autoexec , if I delete autoexec and play it will generate a new one , so what I do is keep my original cfg as backup , but autoexec should be in your excessiveplus folder , even if you target a cfg from your shortcut , if you exit the game regular from ingame not console /quit , it will generate autoexec ..

I use qconnect to connect to games reason I don't target the cfg from a shortcut .

is there a command by / set console 1 ? ??

Re: Random Game crash

Interesting, I wonder why I don't need to have an autoexec
Anyway the only console related cfg I know is xp_drawconsole but I doubt it's that

Just wait for someone who is actually quake proficient to post lmao

Re: Random Game crash

SK you did provide nothing related to the error you get, what happens as quake crashes? also try to add xp_drawconsole 0 to the autoexec and as Jabz said, include same q3config at both baseq3 and excessiveplus as well as installing the most recent release of E+ mod.

Edit: make a backup of q3config and make the one used as not (read only) to be able to modify, and use less commands with autoexec


Have fun at E+ and never take it with hard feelings no matter how much you lose nor how much stupid or dump or punk or bad or blithering idiot the player you are playing with really is, it's just a game and we are here to have fun and enjoy our times!!

Re: Random Game crash

I'm wondering , could it be the macro ? I have two macros set on mouse , g502 , When I have maxfps 200-250 they work fine , now when I lower it to 125 , macro gets bugged , sometimes it shoots first weapon sometimes it doesn't ...

theres no error report . just game completely crashes , screen freezez , so I press window key and it show quake3 has crashed , blah blah blah , I press ok and game closes .

q3config in baseq3 shouldn't matter that is not generated by excessiveplus , only configs generated by e+ are ones in e+ folder , autoexec is main one unless you target one from your shortcut.

Let's say I am crazy that I feel a difference and feel some glitches with quake when q3config at baseq3 is different than that at E+ folder, but having jabz saying the same means it probably matter, not necessarily to have something to do with the crash no,

With regards to the crash, do you run quake using a .bat file? and can't you just try to clear the autoexec and include there only the commands which can't be modified by the q3config? in order to see if the issue persist!
