by crook • 13 May 2007, 19:30 • Journals
so, when i play with r_mode 7 evrything looks nicer but i feel like my comp isnt registring evrything i do prefectly (i think). Does this make any sense and should i play with r_mode 6? Or is it just a mental problem? :))

dispayrefresh is more important, and influences the sensitivity.

For instance, if you play r_mode 4 @ 85hz and change to r_mode 6 @ 85 Hz, it wont change your sensitivity. BUT if you change to 120 Hz, your sensitivity will be raised. After this, the fps matters as well.
higher fps gives a higher sensitivity.
Don't forget to sync, like 76 fps 85Hz, 125 fps 120 Hz OR DO YOU USE TFT??? Then this syncing is no issue.

Netherlands Hope this helps your thing/feeling prob...

76fps 85hz? im using 85fps 85hz, is that a case of bad syncing? :)

I tested some more again, and I found that a "r_mode change", changes your sensi a little as well.
So we have atleast 3 factors:

r_mode
r_displayrefresh
com_maxfps (make sure you reach the com_maxfps setting, otherwise your fooling yourself)

My 19 inch CRT p900 Compaq doesn't like 100 Hz. When I move my mouse up and down I see screen errors, like a horizontal shaking line... On 120 Hz it's good. And 86 FPS 85 Hz is also good, but then my sensi is lowered. I play 125 FPS - 120 Hz usually.

FPS drops make you think that things don't get registered. Check lagometer/drawfps 300 for that. Bad server is end of story, can't help that.

yeah i noticed that aswell while testing, the feel of ur aim is totally different if u change any of those settings. Even if u only change your r_mode to an r_mode with the same dimensions.

Weird stuff :P

wtf I just changed fps from 125 to 76, no difference in sensi... ???
I changed r_mode 4 to r_mode 8 same displayrefresh, no difference in sensi ??? wtf


The only thing that changed my sensi was displayrefresh change...
Oh and then I tried r_mode 3, and my sensi changed a little... :S weird shit indeed. Opposite of what I thought..

wtf is r_mode:\

TsK 13 May 2007, 22:44
lol

r_mode 3 = 640 * 480
r_mode 4 = 800 * 600
r_mode 6 = 1024 * 768
r_mode 8 = 1280 * 1024

monitor resolution.
