    ingame fps

    Any one got a clue why my fps are capped to 125 while running the game..??

    Got a sli setup with two 8800 GTS cards both with 320MB DDR3 on it.
    You would think those 2 cards would pull a little more fps..

    I attached a screenshot of my settings ingame.




    Also I noticed after installing the second gfx card that riva tuner wont let my overclock both cards..
    It worked fine with one card installed on my previous mainboard (temp one while my original was away for repair),
    but after switching the mainboard back to my original (repaired) one,
    checking if everything worked there (riva tuner still worked then, giving me my old overclock settings)
    I put back the second card, started windows and then riva tuner stopped giving me the overclock options

    any one an idea on that one as well..??

    I believe the console command is:

    /set cl_maxpackets
    or
    /set com_maxfps

    If you have a number after these, that is what your FPS is capped at.

    That was it, was set @ 125.

    Haven't played the game after setting it to the highest number possible to see what my fps are now.

    Dee Jee take a look at my post I made a while back by clicking on this link and having a read. It will help you to know where to set you both of these numbers to maximize the communication between the server and your computer.

    Re: ingame fps

    well raising the max fps helped alot, getting like over 200 fps on some maps now, okay it still drops with lots of nades going off to a nice 80 or 90..

    I will look into setting those 2 command the same thanks mediator for the tip.
