Reading the Lagometer

http://thisisalex.free.fr/images/netlagometer.jpg Thats what it usually looks like, note the big vertical yellow line at the end was because of me taking the screenshot, but the rest is a good representation of what happens on my lagometer on that server. Im from the UK and that server was a multipl...

I also have this problem, quite horrid. Lag/stuttering on sound and sounds generally being either too loud or too quiet (Machine gun for example)

R_lightdetail commands work online, they are not cheat protected. I think you are mistaken with the command r_singlelight which is cheat protected.

Theres a "quick fix" by a person called dr4ch, he made a map pack of all the maps that come with the game and edited them to only have the singlelight mode, these will work online and there is no need for commands. Remember though, just a quick fix, really do hope Raven/Random Modder can p...

Once they open that door, there is no going back. The door is already open, try image_lodbias 5 = blurry walls, easy to distinguish person from environment, couple this with a few changes in brightness and gamma and walah! the game is no longer as the developer intended it to be and you have that &...

I think someone said that you could play in Warmup mode with no problem, try that maybe?

Yes, and the people who upgraded hardware to keep up with the latest games find themselves having to revert back to 1ghz CPU visual settings just to stay competitive. :) I have a question for you guys on this issue though, to get your opinion. Yes, even if brightskins are released it is your decisi...

Well Foo, commands that aid visibility are already allowed. Take image_lodbias command for example, it makes all the wall textures go blurry and makes it alot easier to see the enemy as the model no longer blends in with the environment, couple this with brightness and gamma tweaks and you have an &...

I dont fully understand why it unevens the playing field or penalizes the users with newer hardware but im sure that if the commands are allowed in the way that your saying, the only servers that will even want them are the ones with the competitive mods (e.g. osp, cpma etc) so i guess the servers a...

Well, since this is a forum..... ;) After looking at that picture, I can see why it's cheat protected! :icon25: Unless it's possilbe to discern from the browser which games are running this "option", I would prefer it not be allowed. I bought a great looking game in order to play a great ...

i AGREE!!! this is how i ran Quake 3, and this is what i'm waiting for to run Quake 4 with. I feel as though we should e-mail this to ID/Raven soft and ask ( or recommend ) for it to be able to be Uncheat protected, Or INSIST that the modding community Add's this into there mod! Yup yup, im praying...

Well, i want to play this game and be able to enjoy it, I was considering buying some new hardware to be able to run it, however it would be pretty awesome if this command was allowed as it would save me alot of money which i could use for other things.

This command is a godsend, i pray that Raven/ID allow this command through a patch. DruM the reason it is pitchblack is because you must use a different number with the r_singlelight command for each map, the numbers are in the first post. Also to brighten things up for better visibility (something ...
