OK EVERYONE. Remember when Qtest first came out and how slow it ran. Do not judge Quake 2 until the final version is out. I would have thought everyone would have learned this lesson by now. I'm sure it will require more processing speed than Quake did because its a Win95 only game. This among other things. Cool games with all the features everyone wants requires expensive hardware. There is always a trade off. Kind of like an automobile. You want horsepower expect low gas mileage. You want fuel efficiency you have to sacrifice some power. Can't have your Quake2 cake and eat it to. Flame me at sa...@netxpress.com if you must. Bunghole...

I get a bigger fps in the Quake2 Test on my 3Dfx than on regular GLQuake maxed to the eyeballs. Plus with a 5-10% speed increase when the final version comes out, I'll be looking at over 50fps for the first time on my 3Dfx. Just my two cents. rysz...@btinternet.com www.btinternet.com/~ryszard.s

Hit the ~ key to get into console mode and then type timerefresh. This will give you the fps. Hit ~ to get back into game.

Feh. Timerefresh varies considerably depending on where you are in the game. You have to have a standardized measurement before you can start spouting off FPS numbers. Rik
