/seta com_hunkmegs 128

(n0guns) #3

um what? is there a video or something because i can’t find it in program files…:frowning:

(Nail) #4

open console ingame with ~ key, type seta com_hunkmegs 128 in console that appears, should do it. Or you could put that command in your autoexec if you prefer

(n0guns) #5

is there a command to restart W:ET? (sorry first time player)

(Nail) #6

/vid_restart

(Indloon) #7

Hunkmegs size must be 3/4 of computer memory(RAM)
So if you have 1GB ram,then /com_hunkmegs 768
It´s good you have atleast 512 hunmegs,because I don´t know any map,which could take more than 400 hunkmegs.

BUT THEN IT CHANGES BACK TO THE DEFAULT

I had this too. What helped with me was to change some value inside a file, can’t remember the name anymore. But it happened always to me: i changed the value in console and connected after i did vid_restart, but got kicked. Was annoying. So search for a file like that. Maybe it overrides your settings when it tries to load a map. I think it was called autoexec or something …

[edit] some question: what programming actions did cause this additional memory usage in nq ? ETpub has this too afaik.

no playable map will ever require more than 128

(n0guns) #11

and im not going to go on ETPro until later…

(WTF IS WITH KAMAKAZIE)

(mortis) #12

i seem to recall reyalp saying that the game engine can’t use more than 128MB, period…but it’s been a long time.

-edit- according to this old Q3A thread: http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,2855512?r=0.324146497334493

255 hunk
64 zone
32 sound

Not sure if ET has any special limitations…but the hunkmegs setting is engine (not mod) based, IIRC
