  • hello. Im new in nexuiz and Im playing on a mac, it not a great mac, but for this topic I wont need the specs.
    All what I need is how to put the "Worst" configuration, so the quality sucks, but I can play decently, when Im alone I have good fps.. but when a lot of players appear in the screen my fps goes deep diving :S, so what could be the Worst config I could put?.

    I already Put everything in the lowest or disable in the effects menu.

    I would really apreciatte some help. thanks :)
    :D

  • What he meant was to:
    Open the console in-game (Shift+ESC)
    Type "exec omg.cfg" and confirm (Enter)

    But with Nexuiz 2.5.2 it's "exec effects-omg.cfg", I think.

  • In ase of that, you'll need Damn Small Nexuiz - DSN. You can find it in the General dicussion forum section.

  • Minimize resolution
    Deactivate the weapon-model and the HUD (though that's only a minimal factor)
    (type: )
    "viewsize 120"
    "r_drawviewmodel 0"

    EDIT: With minimize resolution I mean to manually define it:
    "vid_width X"
    "vid_height Y"
    "vid_restart"

    EDIT2: You can also reduce the field of view, though that might make it harder to play:
    "fov X" (60 for example)

    Thanks a lot , but I would like to see my hp and armor, and ammo, how can I get it back? and.. how to deactivate Weapon model and HUD?.

    and one more thing.. my pc has 1400x 1050, what resolution should I put ? and whats better, fullscreen or not?

    Thanks a lot. Is there anything else yet? I still low fps when lots of people or big maps, but not so much definetievely

    EDIT: and in video settings, what options should I tick or untick? thanks

    Edit: well right now with 8 people in a room I runned in 17 fps the lowest and 50 the higher.. Its pretty damn good. :)

    To reactivate the HUD use

    "viewsize 110" or
    "viewsize 100"

    To reactivate the weapon model use

    "r_drawviewmodel 1"

    When you play with a (significantly) lower resolution than your screen, it's probably better to play in fullscreen mode, otherwise you will play in a small window.
    You should try to use half your native resolution:

    "vid_width 700"
    "vid_height 525"
    "vid_restart"

    (or 640x480)
