massive fps boost


(biggyyyb) #41

may as well install rivatuner… but hey I’m like Darkangel these days, I rather appreciate the fine work of the devs and artists then butcher it for the purpose of a few extra fps.

Come competition time, there will most likely be IN-range, server side config restrictions anyway :slight_smile:

wonderful story. good thing i dont see anything we’ve tweaked being restricted. this isnt idtech3 where you can remove trees and stuff. regardless of fps gain, i dont want to see a sun flare in my eye while fragging or confusing a shadow with a person

I appreciate your effort dude, was more a go at fzl’s post. My ET config looks very similar to what you have achieved here.

i giggled at your rivatuner reference. those were funny times :stuck_out_tongue:

I have an old irc quote from a fellow ET player that wanted help with his config. Wanted a config with “rivatuna” like results. Needless to say I sent him a config with a picture of a tuna included in the zip.

found it but changes have no effect
have i t load the config ? and how?
ok it works now but no heavy effect
maybe because my cpu is the bottleneck

you have to make sure to change the .ini file to read only after you save.

Gonna try this out today, be on in a little bit

Hmmm, shaft’s config changes make me crash before I get to server list but infernos seem to work I just haven’t had the chance to test on a real map with more people.


(shaftz0r) #51

its basically just settings that remove shadows, adjust draw distance, and texture poly counts. nothing that should crash the launcher :x


(Protekt1) #52

I probably screwed something up. I wasn’t 100% sure where to paste it in the file although I was fairly certain I had it right.

Small update to keep this thread up. Using shaft’s cfg.
