Fast Sky

Im currently using a voodoo 3000 with fast sky on to get more fps, the only set back is that the texture where the sky once was is white. In most cases this is fine but on some levels where u are aiming upwards the crosshair (which is white) disapears 4 obvious reasons. Iwas just wondering if there was anyway to have fast sky on without it being white? ive heard that it depends on what gfx card u have but im not sure. Plz dont tell me to use a different coloured cross hair cause it aint happening :p

Cheers

Moon its me [A]Chris from Jolt CA :p

I had the same problem when i upgraded to the new version of the voodoo drivers, so i reverted back, and the sky was a grey/yellowy color, much easier for aiming, email me or something and ill email you my config & with the version of drivers, i know how hard it is playin with a low spec machine, im getting 71.9 fps in Timedemo 1, on a P2 350, 128 MB SDRAM, and a Voodoo3 3000, 800x600x16, some eye candy etc, so if your interested, email me - chriskuk@btinternet.com

lol its called tweaking your config/connection/computer etc, i replaced my old hard disk for a new segate 6.4 gb HD, created a swap file x 2 of my memory, i have some eye candy on, picmip 1, medium texture level, hunkmegs is 96, an loads of other shit.

Ill post my config in here when i get home for you to check out, probably easiest :p

Moon re-email me i lost your addy like an idiot :D

speed dll's

Download this zip file from here and put them in your baseq3 folder, then add this to your q3config.cfg

seta com_blindlyLoadDLLs "1"

Dependant on machine, it can give upto 20-30 extra fps.

Black Sky

I have a .pk3 file which changes your sky to black, and, you still pass sv_pure so those who want it find me in #fatalerror on irc.barrysworld.com

:eek:

Hi Delboy =)

Moon, you'll be please to hear that Quake3 1.27g point release and Team Arena now have a black sky when using set r_fastsky "1". As for tweaks try the Lower Visual Quality, High FPS config file from the Framerate and Visual Tweaks section of the guide that Delboy posted =]
