DirectQ 1.9.0-Bugs and Questions (April 2013)

[OV3RDR!VE]

1) After an hour or so of playing, my character will start sinking into world and taking damage, and the game becomes unplayable. A quick save and simple load DOES NOT fix this . Only engine restart helps. I was playing Insomnia (Large maps) also I saw this in Unforgiven (very often). It seems like part of the ground becomes "solid" , something like this. It HAS TO BE fixed. Absolutely.

2) How to make Sound quality Higher? Any commands with KHZ? I compare this quality with MHQuake.exe (6.0.0) and quality of the last one was much higher.

3) I tried to launch Nehahra , but when I start new game it crashes while loading (I did not see the error)

p.s. I very enjoy port DirectQ . There are only necessary settings which can make this game looks like DOS or Modern graphics for best quality , a lot of mods support . Very cool at all . BUT these things have to be fixed.

sorry for my ENG ,Im Russian

just played Unforgiven and after about 20 mins I started sink into ground again , thats so annoys me , beautiful port , but this f*ckin bug , very sad. (DirectQ 1.9.0 , DirectX 9.0 , Win XP 32 bit )

Im about WINDOWS XP SP3 , how to increase quality here ? . I think the best way is adding command like s_khz for increasinfg quality In-Game directly like in another ports

p.s. I very wish that BUG with sinking will be fixed , thats very important , also sound quality fix and nehahra support should be added =]

MH , Where are you ? I hope you will come and look specially at these things. Simply want to have a stable port and gameplay , DirectQ is the best !!!

[OV3RDR!VE]

It looks like kind of "overflow" , today I mentioned (when it happened) , corpses start flickering and some time later I started sinking , something like that . annoys a lot =[

I believe you should be using a locked 72fps (or 60,depending on whatever refresh rate your monitor is running at) to avoid weird anomalies like

ice skating
lifts not lifting right
falling through map

It seems familiar....

ps : I would like to note that I haven't ever experienced these issues, on Windows 7 32bit & 64bit alike.

А почему именно DirectQ?

[Mindf!3ldzX]

and why DirectQ? lost in translation

Im using vid_mode 24 that means 1024x768 @ 100hz . In game custom settings :

cl_maxfps "160"
host_maxfps "160"
pq_maxfps "160"
sv_maxfps "160"
sv_aim "1.00"
sys_ticrate "0.00625" // was 160 (Default 0.05)
vid_mode "24"
vid_vsync "1"
vid_fullscreen "1"

The game becomes sooooo smooth after using this (stable 100 fps with vsync on)(CRT monitors are the best)

for hgdagon

Здаров , Да потому что это пожалуй самый лучший из всех "не супернавороченных портов" что я видел. Он сохранил душу игры , всего лишь изменив пару опций в видео меню , можно сделать вид игры как в DOS , так и в более современном стиле (Выбор частоты обновления и тд).
В общем лучший порт из разряда "ничего лишнего"

Lowering fps to 72 does not help , the same situation
