but then I will lose all the crappy functionality with the extra buttons and all

Post by **Grudge** » Tue Jun 26, 2007 6:51 pm

Do you use any special stuff for those buttons? XP and vista has support for at least Mouse3 and Mouse4, dunno if there is a Mouse5 and Mouse6?

yeah I do as a matter of fact, quite heavily I love the damn thing, it'll be a hard decision I might just do it for a day just to check out the game

com_unlock_timingMethod seems to be the important part.

:icon14:

this makes me hopeful:

I find that on my dev system here (2.4GHz Core 2 Duo, 7800GT, 2gig ram) I can do 90fps pretty constantly, so I have mine set to 90. You'll need to experiment a bit to find a level of this that doesn't fluctuate too much for your liking.

I've got the same rig, except with an AMD X2 3800.

And lol at some of the idiots on there replying to the devs. Those guys have a lot of patience.

30FPS IS THE FAULT OF CONSOLES!
NO AUTORUN IS THE FAULT OF CONSOLES!
GREEN STROGG IS THE FAULT OF CONSOLES!!11one

btw it pisses me off that the config is now in "my documents". must be the fault of the consoles

It's in your profile now?

Aw hell. It's a good thing since it's automatically kept when the game directory is removed/uninstalled. But I always liked that nice, simple, compact feeling of every single file necessary for a Quake game being in one folder structure.

I think it's a requirement for the "Games for Windows" thingy.

BTW: r_megadrawmethod 0 (default 3)

Kills a few frames, but looks better.

0 is the high quality method, 3 the faster both will be exposed within the advanced menu.

Why not a public beta the way it is now its just gonna be leaked to p2p

Post by **Grudge** » Wed Jun 27, 2007 5:51 pm

you can download it but you still need a key to play online

Post by **R00k** » Wed Jun 27, 2007 5:51 pm

Because they don't have the resources to supply a few thousand servers for everyone to play on?

Who cares if it gets "leaked" to p2p? It's already on bittorrent everywhere. It doesn't matter because you have to have a key to connect.

Also, Fileplanet will be giving kickbacks for having it through their systems, so they'll be making money from this beta test, or at least they'll be able to cover the expense of running servers during the beta.
