Before You Play

After the few file updates and setting various game settings, you may find you are still experiencing poor multiplayer gameplay. Play with these settings and see if you don't get some results. Please note that these are not definite fixes, only suggestions and tips that players have tried.


The Psycho Launcher

Here's some settings that can be found in the advanced menu of the Psycho Launcher (the menu that comes up when you first put the cd in). If you check th "Disable Movies" box there, the game will start a bit faster.

Try turning off a few of the game display options. Things like "lightmaps" and "fog" create more work for your PC. Turn them off... maybe it'll help the game run smoother. Disable the music too, then throw a few KISS cds in the changer!

Lowering your resolution may dramaticly increase performance. Found in the display menu of the Launcher.
 

During Play

Settings can also be adjusted in the game console while you play. Bring the console up by pressing the tilde key ( ~ ), type in the command, and press enter.


The Game Console (top half only)

Here's a few commands that you can try.
 

updaterate x
This setting adjusts the frequency that the game queries the server for the game data. This number x should range from 2-6 for a dial-up connection and from 6-15 for fast connections such as DSL or cable. Heres a small chart for reference:

Modem speed and updaterate #

28.8k >> 2
33.6k >> 3-4
56k >> 4-6
DSL/Cable >> 6-15

Keeping this number at the appropriate level will be easier on the server and improve ping for all players.
 

maxfps x
This is the MAXimum Frames Per Second that will be displayed. Default is 30 but less powerful video cards may gain some performance by lowering this slightly. Less than 24 and it starts to get real jittery... heck even 24 FPS is jittery but if it helps somewhat, do it.
