Hello All,

The problem I am having is kind of wierd. Perhaps someone can explain it to me. The problem is if i use fps_max = 60; my frame rate drops to 30 fps and the "SRV" (time for entity updates) shoots up to 20-30. In the range of FPS_MAX = 30 to FPS_MAX = 60 it stays 30 FPS and the "SRV" stays nuts. However, If I remove FPS_MAX or put FPS_MAX over 60. My frames go back to normal and the "SRV" goes down to next to nothing. Any ideas?

Thanks,
AJ

Ive found a cure for this problem, but you're not gonna believe this :
when you're having this problem again; Open windows media player, and it goes up to the normal 60 fps again :S

I really think this is a serious gs bug with this command... I hope they fix it.

I remember having read this some times before,
and that it was fixed in a beta release.

But i'm not sure.

Basically for testing out how your game reacts when it's at 30, 40, 50 FPS ect. Making sure everythings nicely multiplied by "time". Of course, I wouldn't include a max fps in a release version...

With the FPS max command you can redruce extrem framerate jumps. Limitting the FPS is also done in Professional Games like DOOM 3 there the fps is limitted to 60. It just a good tweaking option I like it much
