Tweaked FPS boost config inside

[Homosexual Ewok]

If you were a serious competition Quake 3 player you will know what I mean when I say the best players play "ugly".

Basically you edit your config to remove all the fancy lighting and effects so you keep a constant high frame rate. In pro comps even a slight dip in your frames per second could mean the difference between a rail shot hitting or missing. Jedi Outcast as you know, has a major pull on your systems resources, even on high-end systems. Below is a custom config I use for a constant steady frame rate. No keys are bound, and everything other than the graphics tweaks are left at default settings. I have set the following at:

\com_maxfps 100

\r_swapInterval 1

\com_hunkmegs 64

adjust these however you like.

 

The resolution is set at 800x600 and the brightness may need to be adjusted depending on your system.

 

Step 1 Go into your base folder, find the file named jk2mpconfig and make a copy of this. Stick it where ever you wish, just make a copy in case you don't like the way this config looks.

 

Step 2 Go back to the jk2mpconfig file in your base folder and open it with notepad. Delete everything in it (right click, "Select All", hit "backspace").

 

Step 3 Below between the *** lines is your new config (sorry I had to do it this way, file attachments are not allowed). Select EVERYTHING between the *** lines and paste it in your now empty jk2mpconfig.

 

*If you don't like it, just take the copy of your original file you (should have!) made and stick it in your base folder overwriting the tweaked one.

*********************************

[Homosexual Ewok]

Just a quick note, I run a 1.7 GHZ P4 socket 478 w/ 512 of PC800 RDRAM and a GeForce 3 ti500, and although my frame rate is great, it is nowhere near what I get on Quake 3 or Wolfenstein. Jedi Outcast is a resource hog; there is no way around that.

 

Second, while this may help lower end system users, if you run a 233 Celeron or a low-end video card, you are still going to be bound by your systems limits.

 

This is meant as a tweak, not a cure.

 

BTW,

 

seta r_lastValidRenderer "GeForce3/AGP/SSE2"

 

Should be adjusted unless you have the same card I do.
