pmove_fixed

It only affects weapons with recoil as far as I know. That is, MG42, pistol, snipers and FG42. The most visible effect comes with the sniper, as it has the highest amount of recoil per shot.

I believe it's caused by the recoil "being applied" before the shot is actually fired. This way the bullet hits "slightly" above the point you aimed at. On your screen it could be just a bit above the visible scoped crosshair (it doesn't affect the nonscoped crosshair, as that doesn't have recoil), but in the actual game world it can be metres away from what you aimed at. Thus you'll seldom hit anything at longer range.

I haven't ever noticed any difference with pmove_fixed 1 when using the SMG.

E: And yeah, while pale did make something like that, as far as I can remember it only concerned the sniper, and it proved it to be less accurate with pmove on.

omg jorge omg

tought with 0 it was more accurate,

also with 0, you have less recoil when you shooted a bullet @ sniper ( what burneddi said )

pmove_fixed 1 lags

This fuction runs once every client frame and this is where framerate dependant physics come. pmove_fixed is an attempt to level the playing field by running this function at a fixed rate (every pmove_msec milliseconds.) The default pmove_msec of 8 is equivalent to normal physics at 1000 / 8 = 125 frames/second.

To make it more clear: Person who runs the server can set pmove_msec value to whatever he likes, default is 8 like I stated up. Lets say you are playing on 100fps. If server pmove_msec is on its default (8) and you have set pmove_fixed to "1" you will experience 125fps-like physics (jumping higher etc.) when you actually don't have 125 fps. When pmove_fixed to 0, your physics are depending on your fps. (If you have 85fps you will play with 85fps like physics.)

After all this all is useless since b_fixedphysics are restricted to 1 in ClanBase configs.
b_fixedphysics is server-side setting (Set by server owner/config) which avoids rounding the velocity at all when set to 1. (Jumping higher with 43,76,125,333fps are caused by rounding errors). This removes the framerate-dependant behavior in your movement. So when b_fixedphysics is set to 1, it doesn't matter on which fps you play, your physics are the same, hence pmove_fixed 1 will lose its influence.



That's how I got it. Correct me if something wrong:s

EDIT: b_fixedphysicsfps will determine on which framerate-like physics you got. e.g set to 125 will lead to 125fps like physics.

76 fps because my pc can't handle 125

pmove_fixed 1 causes a little mouse lag for me.

i thought it was the other way around O.o but what hirvi said!
