quake 3 stutter when playing back demos. [SOLVED]

Post by ElDuderino »

Well, this is about the same problem someone posted before, but my issue is not related to online play. It's allways when I playback demos or when playing in singleplayer.

When I first encountered this problem, it came with intervals of 2 seconds. I noticed when the console was down that the console itself froze each time I got the stutter. So after a time I found out it was punkbuster related, so when I changed my q3config.cfg (incl. the one in my mod-folder) setting to cl_punkbuster "0" the stutter disappeared.
But, after watching a few more demos I notice that there still were some stuttering, but it did not affect my console and the stuttering is more random.
I don't know if it's still punkbuster related, it might be because of my dualcore cpu. I honestly have no idea.

Sorry for posting a new topic about this, but it's not really the same problem. Besides, that thread didn't really come to any conclusion to what was the problem.

Here are my specs btw:

windows xp x64 sp2
core2duo e6600 cpu
asus geforce 8800gt 512mb
4gig ram

Any tips would be most appreciated.

Thanks.

Edit: Well, nevermind I solved it. I just changed my zone, sound and hunk megs to the default settings and changed to r_finish "0". Seems the problem is gone.
