blurriness/choppiness in Q3
This is a discussion about blurriness/choppiness in Q3 in the Windows Games category; I recently moved from 98SE to Win2K. It's a great OS and games run fine for the most part except for a choppiness and bluriness that occurs when i strafe/move the mouse at the same time in games like Half Life/Q3.
I recently moved from 98SE to Win2K. It's a great OS and games run fine for the most part except for a choppiness and bluriness that occurs when i strafe/move the mouse at the same time in games like Half Life/Q3. My refresh rates are maxed out and my mouse sample rate is at 200hz. Games are still playable but it hurts the eyes to see the choppiness as I move the mouse.
My system:
P3 800EB
Geforce 2 GTS
128mb PC133
SB Live!
6.62 WHQL Drivers.
Abit VH6 (Apollo Pro 133A)
I know I need more ram, but I don't think that is the problem because I dont get the bluriness just strafing on it's own.

add at least 64MB more, that should clear up the problem. Try VIA's updates as well.
try turning the vert sync off
no antitalias
and in q3 use lightmap instead of vertex lighting
u prolly already did this but set the mouse to smooth?

OP
I am already using 4.28 drivers, and all those settings recommended have been. Mouse is set to smooth. Im not sure that it's a ram problem because the bluriness isnt associated with a hard drive hit or anything. Gonna add more ram anyways and try the 6.67 drivers and hopefully that improves some of it.
