    Sonic sorted this one for me,

    cg_fov "110"

    the inverted commas being important too.

    J.

    Use the Slash as well i think. Can't remember.

    BoN - try playing it on systems with oddball GFX or Soundcards. It's not pleasant. And the performance really, really needs work.

    As to the voice tree... if there was one, why not use it in the actual clan games as well? Isn't it easier to type "VDD" rather than "Defending our base", and have it _said_ as well as _typed_ so people don't have to look up and read it?

    Makes sense to me smile.gif

    I dunno Sonic, I get a steady 50-60 on a single V2 in the UT demo, and cap out at 90 with a TNT2 Ultra and the new Detonator drivers...

    Heh Shinji,
    how do you find out your fps in UT? Whats the command? I've told mine to give me 45 steady, and it seems to be doing that, pretty smooth. But I'd like to have show_fps so i could see what I'm getting

    'timedemo 1' = 'show_fps 1' in ut

    I've spent ages tweaking both UT and the new Q3 and I find UT runs significantly faster and with less frame dropping than Q3. My spec is a celeron 450 with 128meg ram and V2. The more ram the merrier for UT.

    I don't see any improvements in gameplay that Q3 has over Q2, its the same jumping around like crazy and from what I've seen sofar the maps aint as good as the ones in Q2.
