I love Getright!

searches for alternates, and retries busy servers constantly until it gets it!

for it being the Q3 engine, it sure doesn't run well on a 9500Pro with an 1800+ @ 1024x768...

UPDATE FROM MORE ENTHUSIASTIC R3D THREAD ON EF2 (http://www.rage3d.com/board/showthread.php?s=&threadid=33683091): Kyleb got the big score in that thread, with:

+set r_precompressed_textures 0 -works great for my cat 3.1s
+developer 1 -works to enable console
fps 1 -is the command to show fps


shouldn't use vertex lighting, dynamic lighting is the way to go, it lets you check both but don't. also, stencil shadows are goofy just so i turned them off. also i had to go to x2aa to get everything else to run well cranked at 1024x768 on my 9700pro and 2.2ghz barton but it looked great and was quite fun and i have a feeling deathmatch will be sweet, i am not a star trek fan but it i am sure i will buy the game.


The only other important bit is:

It's "cheats 1" to enable cheats so you can muck with the timescale.

You can either enter it at the console & restart, or hard-code it in your .cfg file.

Got me binds & everything working just spiffy on it, GREAT game!!!! :D

This demo is top! Think I'll get the full version to tide me over till doom3.

The sound is most excellent too.. Its the 1st game ever that auto detected my ancient SB live as EAX2. The audio sounded amazing! nice bassy big metal doors opening.. bah if only the kids weren't in bed, I'd crank the baby up a notch!

Running at 1024x768 with 2xAA and 2xAF, and the visuals are sweet-as! Hard to believe its still a q3 engine. :)
