250 is buttery but you’ll not hear every footstep and sometimes you will hit your head coming up jump pads.

What, it literally hides footsteps sounds?

Next level retardation by Syncerror as usual. I'll stay with 125 fps then.

You wont lose sounds on 166 and 200 tho

im sure using those fucks up something else

Basically what gojira said but I don't think you will notice much difference unless you got a 144hz screen or higher.

I have a 144hz monitor but lossing footstep input is incredibly retarded. Can they do anything right?

they will never be able to do anything right

xDDDD

ok, what year we got now.

2019

ok, how old is ql

2009

ok, ql is basically q3.

1999 release.


LOOOOOOOL, who cares if its 125fps or 250fps.

Quake 4 runs at 240 fps and its a 2 times smoother and faster game experience than q3 / qlive.

I mean the game itself is 6 times faster and with 10 times smaller hitbox, only God Sanchez hits 60% LG in quake 4.

Too bad post-q3 engines suck, Sanchez.

q4 engine 100000x better than q3 and qlive

No way, Sanchez.

Yeah, thats the way it is.

Quake 4 just stomps any other quake in dirt.

Go to bed, Sanchez.

Bed goes to Sanchez, wake up kiddo.

Go to bed, Sanchez.

doube post wtf

Go to bed Sanchez.

-125

Far as i know the bug where 125 makes you jump further in Q3 does not exist in QL anymore so you can even use 144fps if you want.

Thing is you can only get certain multiples of 125 or 250 so you wont get exactly 144 but I think you can have 150 or something.

Edit: So I just check my config. Com_maxfps 126 is what I use and it results in a framerate of 142fps which is pretty good for 144hz screen. Also it effects the tickrate/netcode where unless you use 250fps you do not get maximum tickratre if I remeber correctly but this does not seem much to effect your rego or anything.

You are right. Values of com_maxfps other than 125 or 250 result in potentially much lower cl_maxpackets than the 125 that is normally specified these days. The effect on you is minor, but I'm pretty sure it can make you animate less smoothly for other players. I remember testing in the old days, and you could see the difference when people changed their maxpackets value.

A solid frame rate of 125 or 250 will give you the 125 packets per second upload to the server.

Between 125 and 250, maxpackets will effectively be about half the frame rate.

If Meph1stoo in comment #9 is right, then 200FPS is probably the way to go; it gives you sounds and maxpackets of 100 while 250FPS drops sounds but gives you maxpackets of 125.

not in q4, q4 240 fps is perfect, everything is great

But why do every pro uses 250 fps then, if it fucks up with something as insanely crucial as foot fucking steps sounds?

You would guess someone like rapha is aware of this like this?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure they are aware of it, but I guess they consider the odd missed footstep sound worth it for the improved fluidity and response time of 250 FPS.

Why can't we have both?

Because they stopped updating QL before this bug was fixed.

How do we physically force Syncerror to do fix it?

Ask wwwAnyBoy. It seems like his area of expertise.

>But why do every pro uses 250 fps then, if it fucks up with something as insanely crucial as foot fucking steps sounds?

Quake pros are some of the most technologically illitterate and challenged individuals you can find.

>You would guess someone like rapha is aware of this like this?

And Rapha is the king of the technologically clueless. Rapha doesn't care much about settings in general, he only fixes or changes stuff when some teammate or chat memeber tells him to do so.

Rapha lost a tournament because they changed the acceleration value and he didn't know or understand what was fucking up his aim.

Another illuminating anecdote: a month or so ago i was watching Cypher's stream. You know, the one time per month he actually feels like playing and streaming. He opened the settings page, after request, and he had the enemy outline option set to "target". It's the default, and in those years he never cared about what it did. Chat went crazy, and he finally switched to "all".

Those are the pro players.

Well what about czm? He sure was a cvar nerd.

noctis, fox etc were so too

nothing without a 1000mhz mouse, then 250fps gives you twice the change of shooting someone around a corner

im on 500mhz wmo due impossibility of a wmo replacement being released and 1000mhz is too high for wmo i dont wan to fry it

mhz is todo with CPU latency and cycles and update times which is a muliple of 2 + monitor (1ms) so you have the uneven refresh rates of 125/250, DPI means nothing

what does this mean?

i always heard that for wmo 500hz is safer than 1000mhz

how can someone even play with 500hz only.
that delay!

huh

240Hz is no longer a limit:

yeah but what does that mean when it comes to quake

yeah but what does that mean when it comes to quake

- Only custom cheat defrag records, lol.
But i'd like to see maxfps 500 Q3/QL fragservers somewhere.
P.S. Also a step up in compare to CRT.

so best case scenario right now which is it?

in terms of max fps, dpi, mhz, maxpackets......

https://www.blurbusters.com/4k-120hz-with-bon...0hz-modes/

That's 4k 120Hz monitor, connecting with 2 cables, with 480Hz in 540p lower-resolution mode.

non native resolutions look like crap on non crts
