its just choppy dunno whyComment

Choppy in single player and online or just choppy online only? The former means an OpenGL issue, but if you only have the choppiness online it more than likely isn't an OpenGL issue at all.
If it is OpenGL problem, try this experimental DirectX8 ProQuake and see if it helps. This is sort of a hybrid of DirectQ and ProQuake where MH made the Direct3D support modular for plug-in to other engines. No brightness support and don't ALT-TAB out of it. Otherwise seemed rather solid. Make sure you set the -width and -height in the command line because resolution changing has issues too.

Then trying the above to see if it runs smoothly may work.Originally posted by JeSuS View Post
If you try it out, please let me know if it does run smoothly for you on Windows 7. If it does, it would certainly be an OpenGL issue.Quakeone.com - Being exactly one-half good and one-half evil has advantages. When a portal opens to the antimatter universe, my opposite is just me with a goatee.

Thanks for info. This at least will help everyone understand a bit more about issues with Windows 7 and Quake. I'm glad it appears to work for you.Originally posted by JeSuS View Post
In time, this particular build should mature and eventually there may even be a Qrack Direct3D8 build.

Awesome. I might try a test merge with JoeQuake as well which might serve as a way to ease Rook's path for attempting this.Originally posted by mhquake View PostShould have a new code dump for you shortly Baker, lotsa things cleaned up and fixed.Quakeone.com - Being exactly one-half good and one-half evil has advantages.

The D3D8 experimental build gets rid of the dropped frames issue, however, I can't figure out how to change the refresh rate from 60 to 75 hz. When I change it in Quake and hit apply it doesn't change it. The game also looks kinda dark and the "gamma" command doesn't change anything. Another minor issue is when alt+tabbing, black boxes surround all the characters on the hud and the textures look pixelated. Are there any command line parameters to fix these issues?Comment
