Hi, and thanks for the tip. What line in the doomconfig.cfg file is it that
controls the refresh rate?

DaveL


You'll have to add this line in your doomconfig.cfg file:

seta r_DisplayRefresh "85"

I put this line right before the seta image_ stuff and at the end of
the seta r_ commands. BTW: Just make sure you monitor handles whatever
rate you set it at.

You might have to make the doomconfig.cfg file "read only" so this
command "sticks" and doesn't get overwritten. Just remember you won't
be able to change any settings from within the game while this file is
read-only. (just uncheck it to toggle it off -right click /
proprieties / attributes)

The other way which I don't use, is to create a autoexe file that has
all your tweaks in it. To me it seems like more work then its worth,
where editing the doomconfig.cfg is simpler.

ps.. a few more lines that are handy to add:

bind f10 com_showfps 1
bind f11 com_showfps 0
com_videoram xx ] where xx equals your onboard video ram..

Me too. D3 game aborted to the desktop when it tried to jump to a cut
scene. I updated to driver to cat 4.7 and it's fine now. I have a
Visiontek 9600XT. I run the game in medium quality at 1024x760 and it

plays
ok. I might need to turn on vsync as I do get some tearing.

I fixed the tearing by uping the refresh rate to 85Mhz instead of the
default 60Mhz. (using MultiRez or editing your .cfg file)
