ref_r1gl and ref_gl problems

[Slayer :D]

Hi all, I'm having problems with my opengl renderers. When I use ref_gl (the id default opengl renderer) I have common crashes when I try to take screenshots, and with some mods. I know I cannot work around these difficulties, so I tried ref_r1gl.

Unfortunately, ref_r1gl gives me REALLY bad framerate--on the order of 4-15 FPS. (Normal ref_gl gives me 60-100 FPS now that anticheat is turned off  , and I get 40-60 FPS with anticheat turned on.) I do not have a video card, so does anybody know a way to make ref_r1gl run the same as ref_gl and at the same speed but with all the bug fixes? And no, I do not want to turn off dynamic lighting. It is too important.
     Thanks!

You can try this ref_gl.dll version from Alpha-Prime(CW). Maybe it solves your problem. I use this version too but without dynamic lighting.

You can find it at http://tastyspleen.net/quake/forums/index.php?PHPSESSID=194657581e81ab94779f7bcac5f2188d&topic=7001.msg114442#msg114442

Thanks for the offer, but that ref_gl has exactly the same problem as ref_r1gl .

Add the following commands to your config and check if this solves your fps problem.

set gl_swapinterval "0"
set gl_ext_swapinterval "0"
set gl_ext_pointparameters "0"
set gl_finish "0"
