UT Benchmarking - how?

[old.[Wc?]Kessler]

Hi

How do you get a UT Timedemo score?

I have a TNT2 Ultra running on a Celery 466 and UT seems a little 'clunky' and not as smooth as I would expect. What sort of Timedemo stats is everybody getting?

Cheers

um, using the `timedemo statistics` thing on the Uwindows desktop (probably unreliable)

On my 266, 128mb ram, voodoo *spit* banshee I get between 20-30 depending on the map/number of bots/texture detail etc (usually around 25)

at the console type:
"timedemo 1"
followed by
"playdemo <demoname>"

this will play the demo and at the end it will report min/mean/max fps over the course of the demo.

u can also leave the timedemo stats running in regular play, not just demos. obviously for comparing different gfx setups u should always use the same demo with MinDesiredFramerate set to 0, so the tru effect of the settings can b seen.
