After part 1: www.ut99clans4fun.opweb.nl/modules.php?name=UTbible I thought it was time that someone made a bible about all settings there are in ut99. It should be a usefull bible for any ut player or movie maker. I hope you'll find it usefull:

Is there a part that explains how to kick your ass on jolt deck :P ?

P.S: Nice information there. Some people will have trouble with no vsync on opengl though. If you're interested I can send you the settings that fix this.

[ginz]

that's impossible haha

didn't about a fix on vsync, so show me :)

Oh well, there's no harm in asking I guess ;) .

About the vsync and opengl problem. It seems to be related to ATI drivers so it shouldn't concern Nvidia cards. What happens is that UT doesn't run at constant speed offline and this causes all sorts of weird stuff on a server.

The workaround is to turn vsync on and set FrameRateLimit to 200 or something lower. This last setting seems to make a lot of difference. Also it's a good idea to change the netspeed so it can reach the framerate the vsync is set to. TNSe's page says that netspeed 5500 corresponds with 75Hz @<hidden> 1024x768 resolution.

I'm not sure what the problem is but maybe ATI has changed something which causes the game to work too fast (on this machine UT seems to be able to run at 300 in-game fps or more). That's why the frameratelimit would help.

I dunno if any admin saw this post, but imo you can update this tutorial http://wiki.unrealadmin.org/Tweaking_for_smoother_gameplay_%28UT%29 :)
