Trouble Shooting / old school quake2 needs help
« on: May 07, 2014, 08:34:26 PM »
Hi guys I'm new to the forum.
I have my old rig up and running and wanted to play some quake2 for old times sake.
I have an AMD Athlon 4000+ 64 bit
4 gb of ddr3 ram
geforce 7800GT
windows7 64 bit
dell u2410 monitor with 1920x1200 res.
I can't seem to get Quake2 running smooth. I can't do all the jumps I used to probably because of settings.
few questions:
1. what version of q2 should I be running. q2pro, r1q2 or something else? (what's the best or most popular?)
2. what in game resolution would be best for performance? (so I can do all the jumps etc)
3. can anyone hook me up with a good to cfg as a starting point?
I don't have time to mess with every setting to figure it out myself like when I was a teenager.
I played back when PGL was all the rage and ten.net was the place to play
Thanks in advance guys. Until I get this setup right I'll be fragging newbs on quake-live.
