This Has Gotta Be Fixed!

Hi Splash damage,

Great game. However they is one thing that is stopping me from playing it :frowning: I play all my games at 1024x768 res, the same as my desktop. I have WinME and a GeForce 4 4600ti Ultra. However when i goto play ET. The game loads ok. I start a game and my refresh rate has been changed, and the screen flickers and looks bad, giving me a head ache after a few mins. I have noticed in the console when i connect to a game it has my res setting 1024x768 then it says HZ n/a?. When i go back to my desktop it’s also been changed, and i have to set it back to optimal. (85HZ). Please fix this in the next patch. Thanks!

windows 2k and xp have a reputation of defaulting refresh rate to 60 hz even if you set it differently in video drivers. The refresh rate fixes were made b/c of this issue. There are overrides in nvidias drivers for dx games, but not in the opengl properties. Not sure what the cause of your issue is tho,

Fixed it. I had to change my refresh from optimal to just 85hz on my desktop. Strange, but now it works. :banana:
