Whenever I load HalfLife, it starts it in the default resolution at 60hz - how do I make it not be at 60hz, because it hurts my eyes and annoys me.

max_fps 99

What's the refresh of your monitor Trog?
My system pumps out more than 100frames, but my monitor only refreshes at 60...

It's a bit of a waste really.

ugh slide show

er... are you referring to the frequency at which your card is being told to show imaging,

or the number of frames it's pumping out?

60Hz isn't the frames its the refresh rate

try playing the game @ 640x480@75Mhz Trog

Mwhahahaa !

Win2k and nVidia graphics card?

Get this:

Windows 2000 NVidia Refresh Rate Fix Version 1.4 build 148 (09 Mar 2001)


Oh well

Yep set adaptor refresh to 75Hz in 640x480res should fix Trog's problem...

g0dfr3y's fix worked ferpectly, thanks mano

hmmmm I tried that file but i still couldnt get it to go at 70Hz on 1280x960... maybe g0dfr3y or trog can help we with it on Saturday :)

i find the best way is to edit your nv4_disp.inf if you're using a nvidia card, ill show you what i mean on sat/sun. just find me or something

muahahahaha 1280x960 @ 85 :P 1600x1200 @ 85 :P

"It's a Sony"

Damn straight. I had to install the sony monitor drivers so that program would use my max refresh rates :)

1280x960@75 (17") and 75 flat fps with a p3 533b.. ph34r :)

godfrey

how about window 98/Me ??

I have 19" Sony 1600@1200@85hz for Window size

quake on 1024@960 about 70 fps

umm I find it better for aiming with a lower res, since you dont have to move the mouse as far, and the sensitivity can be low "5"for HL, and "3" for q3.

but with a higher res, I can get alot more headshots in HLCS.

BTW i have a 300a, 2x 12mb Voodoo2 monsters, and only 320mb of RAM.

I'm running them at 1024x768 @ 85hz and geting about 60-100fps in HL-CS, 30-80 in HL-DoD, 90 in q3(no texture mapping :D and lower res guys.)

so I think my 300a will do fine till septembe :D

P.S

I got b&w... my cow wont stop smoking, I only wanted to see what he would do if lighting hit him....

Guys I posted the fixes for all o/S a while back. Like godfrey posted for the win2k get the refresh fix he mentions above.

For win9x and ME go get Hztool from here

You can force you refresh rate in any game, application whatever you like with this handy little tool. As long as your monitor can handle the rates you can make them applicable to any game.

HL is a LOT better with the higher refresh
