image_filter
Changes texture filtering used for mipmapped images
"GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_NEAREST" (faster)
"GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR" (slower)

image_ignoreHighQuality
Controls high quality settings on materials. Can give a minor FPS gain in singleplayer
Set to 0(slower) or 1(faster)

image_lodbias
Controls lod bias on mipmapped images
Range from -2 (slower / crisper) to 2 (faster / uglier)

image_useCache
image_cacheMegs
image_cacheMinK

Controls memory set aside for temporary loading of full-sized precompressed images and files.

WARNING
- When set incorrectly this can cause Quake 4 to crash at startup or
cause instability/graphical artifacts in game. If you are having
problems at map start try setting image_useCache to 0, you must restart
the game to enable the change

Set cache megs to a higher value if you have 512 megabytes or more of system RAM. Guideline is 1/6 to 1/4 of your system RAM.

Set image_cacheMinK to 2048. This can be set lower than 2048 when image_useCache is set to 1 but may cause Quake 4 to crash.

Set image_useCache to 1 to enable background load image caching

512 Megabytes of RAM
seta image_cacheMegs "96"
seta image_cacheMinK "2048"

768 Megabytes of RAM
seta image_cacheMegs "256"
seta image_cacheMinK "2048"

1 Gigabyte of RAM
seta image_cacheMegs "384"
seta image_cacheMinK "2048"
NOTE: You can leave image_cacheMinK at its default if you are not setting image_useCache to 1

image_useCompression
Determines if textures are used compressed.
Set to 0 (uncompressed, high quality)
Set to 1 (compressed, slight loss of quality)
Important: Only set to 0 if you have over 256 megabytes of video ram.

image_useNormalCompression
Determines how normal textures are compressed.
Set to 1 for lower quality/smaller/faster 256 compression
Set to 2 for higher quality/larger/slower rxgb compression
NOTE: ATi 9x00 series or before should use a setting of "1"

pm_runbob
pm_runpitch
pm_runroll
pm_bobpitch
pm_bobroll
pm_bobup
pm_crouchbob
pm_walkbob

Controls 'bobbing' up/down/side movement of player. Can help if you get motion sickness
Set each of the bob cvars to 0 to disable bobbing

r_brightness
Does not affect FPS, helps with brightness.
Set between 1 and 2, if brightness is still a problem use r_gamma and/or r_lightscale

r_forceambient
The
r_forceambient controls how lights are drawn by the game engine. Any
light below a set threshold will be skipped. This will dramatically
increase FPS and particularly helps with CPU limited systems
Usable ranges are from 0.1(slower) to 1(faster). Faster is generally uglier than slower

r_gamma
Does not affect FPS, helps with brightness, do not set this too high or colours will become washed out. See r_lightscale.
Set between 1 and 1.5, adjust r_lightscale for settings high than 1.5

r_lightDetailLevel
Controls
the threshold at which lights are drawn. Any light below this threshold
is skipped. This particularly helps with CPU limited systems
Usable ranges are from 0(slower) to 9(faster)

r_lightscale
Does not affect FPS, helps with brightness and raises the intensity of all colours.
Set between 2(default) and 4, only use when you feel r_gamma and r_brightness have not helped.

r_Multisamples
Controls the amount of antialiasing.
Set
to 0, 2, 4, 8, or 16 with the lower number being faster and the higher
number being slower. Not all cards will support 8 or 16 settings.

r_shadows
Enables or disables shadows, very high FPS gain with the drawback losing shadows generated by enemies and objects.
Set to 0(faster) or 1(slower)

r_skipBlendLights
Skip all blending of lights, not worth the negligible FPS gain in singleplayer
Set to 0(slower) or 1(faster)

r_skipBump
Controls
bump mapping, can be set so that Quake 4 displays a flat surface
instead of a 'raised' surface on textures. Setting to 0 can help with
CPU limited systems as Quake 4 requires localised world lights with
bump mapping enabled.
Set to 1(faster / uglier) or 0 (slower)

r_skipDynamicTextures
Do not dynamically create textures, can cause problems with in game videos. Best to leave at 0 for singleplayer.
Set to 0(slower) or 1(faster)
NOTE: Leave at 0 for singleplayer

r_skipFogLights
Skip all fog lighting, negligible FPS gain.
Set to 0(slower) or 1(faster)

r_skipNewAmbient
Controls the rendering of special effects such as heat haze.
Set to 1(faster) or 0 (slower)

r_skipOverlays
Skip overlay surfaces on textures. Negligible FPS gain.
Set to 1(faster / uglier) or 0 (slower)

r_skipPostProcess
Skip all post-process rendering such as distortion on windows glass / etc. FPS gain on some systems.
Set to 0(slower) or 1(faster)

r_skipSpecular
Uses
black for specular lighting. Specular lighting adds additional lighting
to a texture's surface. Not worth the minor FPS gain in singleplayer.
In multiplayer setting to 0 can help with CPU limited systems.
Set to 1(faster / uglier) or 0 (slower)

r_skipTranslucent
Controls translucent interaction rendering such as the loading bar and logos on containers. FPS gain on some systems.
Set to 1(faster) or 0 (slower)

r_useCachedDynamicModels
Controls dynamic model loading, if set to 1 the game will use its memory cache for models.
Set to 1(usually faster) or 0 (slower)

r_useDepthBoundsTest
Specific
to Nvidia hardware and enables UltraShadow II’s depth bounds test
feature for 5x00/6x00/7x00 cards. Defaults to enabled (1) in Quake4.
Set to 1(faster) or 0(slower)

r_useOptimizedShadows
Determines if static shadow volumes are used rather than calculated in real time
Set to 1(faster) or 0(slower)

r_useSMP
Enables
or disables use of threading for HyperThreading enabled or Dual Core
processors such as AMD X2 and Pentium 4 HT. This can cause stuttering
and or stability issues on some systems.
Set to 1(faster) or 0(slower)

r_useTurboShadow
Use a faster technique for generating dynamic shadows. This may cause loss of shadows on systems with older display drivers.
Set to 1(faster) or 0(slower)

ui_showGun
Shows or hides your on screen gun model.
Set to 1(slower) or 0(faster)

C'est quoi la vrai commande a mettre dans la config?
g_muzzleFlash
Controls muzzle flashes when you or the enemy fires a weapon.
Set to 0 (faster) or 1 (slower / more realism)

seta g_muzzleFlash "1"?
ou
g_muzzleFlash?

Merci.

g_muzzleFlash

Set to 0 (faster) or 1 (slower / more realism)

seta g_muzzleFlash "1"? config
ou
g_muzzleFlash? console du jeu

Merci.

Dans la config du jeu, toujours utiliser: seta g_muzzleFlash "1", mais si tu veu exécuté une commande directement durant que tu joue, tu tape direct dans la console du jeu: g_muzzleflash 1

HAha..moi j,aime ça être servit rapidement..thanks mate!!

Entk j'suis en train de me monter un Quake3 de la mort hyper beau graphiquement avec tout les setting qu'il-y-a...avec du antialiasinga 8X et de l'anisotropic a 16X ..ça va être débile...

image_downSize

dans la config est-ce..
seta image_downSize "0" ??

Neutrinos_Burst68 a écrit:image_downSize

dans la config est-ce..
seta image_downSize "0" ??

Oui, je te l'ai expliquer plus tot...

Controls resizing of standard textures. Helpful if your video card has less than 256 megabyte of video ram
Set image_downSize to 0(disabled) or 1(enabled)
Set image_downSizeLimit higher(slower) or lower(faster)

Vu que j'ai trois fois la puissance d'une carte de 256meg,j'en ai une de 768 meg,j'ai mit..
seta image_downSizeLimit "3072"

Ok..thanks

Dans ton cas avec la machine que tu as, je me demande pourquoi tu te casse la tête avec ces settings !!!

Ta juste a aller dans le menu du jeu et choisir l'option ultra ...c'est pas compliquer, mets toutes dans le tapis...

Hummm,,,c'est sur que de mettre tout dans l'tapis dans les setting du jeu ça aide a avoir le plus beau jeu possible mais moi je pense que même a ça tu te doit de mettre des extra graphic setting dans la config du genre seta oldrail sans ça tu n'aurai pas l'effet de tourbillon quand tu tire avec,et le seta oldplasma quand tu tire avec tu a une genre de neige partout alentour du rayon qui revole,et le lodbias -2 qui rend ton image beaucoup plus crisp et nette..Mon gars ce quake3 en e beaucoup plus dans le ventre graphiquement parlant que tu ne le crois..
Et moi je veux le maximum...

Oui je te comprend, mais avec Quake 4 c'est différent...à moin que je sois dans les patates, mais il me semble que tu joue avec les settings de quake 4 dans le moment, faudrait pas que tu mélange les 2....c'est bien différent de l'un à l'autre...
