ET: Crosshair is chlorine addict?

by Deactivated6106 • 15 Jul 2008, 18:12 • Journals
I crashed my HDD and had to re-setup everything, including ET. Besides the fact that I have FPS drops (non is stable, if I enter /com_maxfps 43 it will always be lower than that even though if I enter 125 it is just sightly lower than that but, and that makes it pretty annoying in ET, not stable @all) that become worse the more players join the fight I decided to sherlock this out myself (as I remember alot of Nvidia drivers killed my FPS journals here some time ago, some handsome guy can send me a link??) and ask a question that might be interesting for you if you think you know about ET.
Long talk, problem here:
No matter what I do my crosshair is white! I change it in the cfg and in the options (changes in CFG change the options so its nothing resetting it somewhere else in the cfg) and the preview will be green/red but the crosshair is just white. Any ideas? Maybe connected to the FPS(-bug/-problem/-false setting)???
I have never experienced that problem before and I dont know anyone who could not say "gtfo and fix ur cfg, nerd" but its true.
I am pleased for any ideads and suggestions!

.edit. crosshairhealth is 0.

If he can't figure his problem out himself he should quit ET..

so what will we do? I got 3Gb DDR2 a Pentium D with 3Ghz and a nvidia 8800GT Superclocked. Everything worked well until the drivers update (for fakkn UT2003 on LAN)

i didnt had that problem till i updated my drivers i think. Should look for the older ones, but dont know the number anymore
Parent

Deactivated6106 15 Jul 2008, 19:35
me neither. i updated it to 19 and I use the 16 now. Not better. If you find a link to a rather old driver (about half a year should be fine) Id be glad if you send me the link.

I had those FPS drops you mentioned. They were caused by the CPU. When Intel CPUs get to hot, they start to drop cycles. So maybe you should check your CPU temperature and clean your fans if it's too hot

fans totally clean (I had some progress finding out that it was the HDD broken) and temp. monitor looks good. thanks for the idea!
