60hz->75hz

by spiROZE • 14 Feb 2009, 11:26 • Journals
Hi guys, normally my screen works at 75hz but when I start up ET my screenhz always goes to 60hz :s so I always have to edit it to 75hz everytime I start up ET :s someone has an idea how it comes that it just doesn't stay 75hz when I start up et?

Oh and yeah, my colors also change from 32 to 16..

I have the same problem : > Im too lazy to do it on my own, but solution would be ''autoexec'' file with commands like r_dispref 75 + vid_res imo

76 exceeds your monitors maximum, so yeah it won't do anything then :p

If you use a TFT it doens´t make a different if you use 60 or. 75HZ.

1) Look @ Windows Settings
2) Look in you "Autoexec" files. (+ETconfig)
3) Write a second config(1) , in it : /r_displayrefresh 75 // and in your own Config /exec 1

"If you use a TFT it doens´t make a different if you use 60 or. 75HZ."

That's not true.
- Some TFT screens can display 75 Hz at lower resolutions.
- Some can handle a 75Hz input but only display 60FPS, so it will skip every fifth frame (jerky movement) if you use r_displayrefresh 75.

I had the same problem. a solution was to run the game in windowed mode. simply choose the same resolution as in windows.

IT is because your resolution in ET is too big for your monitor to pull off 75hz. Try using a smaller resolution like 1280x800 or 1440x900. Those most likely will work with 75hz on a 19inch tft, bigger then that will get you 60hz.
