Monitor Refresh Rates... 
not sure where to post this... we don't really have a general tech help thread.

basically, i'm wondering how i can get my monitor to use it's higher refresh rates when i play games.

in windows, i can manually specify what rates i want to use, and that's fine, but when i load up games, like say, Glquake, even in 640x480 where my monitor is able to do 160hz, i'm running in 60hz. (i can check by looking at the OSD, plus i can see it flickering which it doesn't do at 75hz +)
my desktop is set at 75hz (1280x1024) so it's not a problem with defaulting to the desktop's rate...

i've got the monitor drivers installed... anything else i need to do? (yes, directx is updated.) 
W2K/XP ? 
Fun Fact: 
the next fitzquake will let you set refreshrate with a cvar (fullscreen only.) 
Yay! 
thanks man, that's beautiful! 
Necros 
u can set refreshrates in drivers if u use latest from nvidia or ati, look carefully in display properties...

Blah Sorry To #tf For Tonight's Ultimately Pointless Conversation 
Especially metlslime, I don't wanna be an asshole it's not my intetion. I just struggle with life sometimes and it overwhelms me. It should be a personal struggle though, so just kickban me in the future if I'm getting out of hand. I'm sorry and no hard feelings. 
Just Say.. 
Just say you were drunk Blitz. I always use that one when I f**kup online :)

Fourth Rule Of #terrafusion 
REMOVE MORONS OUT OF THE WAY

that includes those who quote fight club and think it's hip, original, and funny. 
Quoting Fight Club... 
is still cooler than all those retarded adverts that rip off Trainspotting's "Choose life..etc" monologue. I fucking hate those. 
Dickhead 
Trolls, spammers, bot users, a general dickheads actually used to get to me. What a rookie I was lol. I suppose some of the problem was when I joined "The Net" in '95 everybody was nice. People actually followed netiquette, and were worried about stepping on people's toes. Back in 94/95, generally only pure geeks were on the Internet. All that changed after they pushed the Internet on the masses. Now, everybody is pure evil. Now that I think about it... FU all goddamnit!!!1!

;) 
Megazoid, 
you are ugly.

It seems like my mail server doesn't want to send my mail when I use web interface instead of my mail program. So here's the text of that mail:

hi

That sounds great, even fantastic, but I'm not able to check it out, because I'm far away from my PC atm (I temporary live in another city). I hope to get my PC back in few weeks or maximum in a mounth, then I will be able to test it (I feel I'll like it a lot as all your previous utils).

So that's how things go... I can't map or even have a permanent access to the Net as I used to do (I'm wasting my money in the internet cafe now)

I'll let you if I get any PC to check your new Light tool.


best regards,
PuLSaR


btw metlslime, you need to add 'mail' icon and private message function 
PuLSaR 
Thanks. 
Blitz: 
well, the only reason i let you waste my time was that i was drunk too. 
 
third rule of #terrafusion: HI MOM

I thought it was HI SHAMBLER'S MOM
