    this personally doesnt work.
    All this does for me is make NS look like DOOM.
    I have everything on the lowest settings and i STILL get around 20fps. I'd rather have NS looking pretty and have 20fps thank-you....

    It's not your video card thats limiting you then, not much you can do but overclock or buy a faster cpu.

    Check out the Modelling forum section here and look for Ollj's low-poly models. If you ignore the (usually negligible) differences in looks, you'll benefit from 50% or lower polygon counts compared to the regular models.

    A note to all the Windows XP users: XP is only recommmended if you have 512MB or more of RAM since it eats loads, but if you do have 512MB or more it is much faster than any previous Windows. Also I think earlier ones like Win98 don't support anything higher than 512MB anyway. So 512MB is the break point, if you have 512MB or more go XP, if not then get more RAM before you upgrade.

    As a question, what is the best way to get rid of dust inside my comp? My cpu fan has a fair bit clogging it up and I want to get rid of it before I overclock it.

    When i omit such advices like putting your computer into H2O tank or into washing machine, what remains is taking the dust out with the more conventional means, like using the vaccuum cleaner, then dismantle your comp and manually clean the fans with your fingers or whatever advanced tool you have. You can also take the fans apart and put some vaseline in there, it will give em more RPM, less noise and they will also be more happy <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo--> .

    hehe i run ns at 30-50 fps in 1024*768 with a voodoo3 2000 (oc to 200mhz)

    long live win98, it is THE best with older gfx cards

    other pc stats: 525 mhz Celeron, 128mb RAM and using the amigerlin drivers + the wickedgl drivers for hl

    so im not upgrading until hl2 is released <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I dont get it...some of u have awesome systems and get puny FPS?

    When i had a tnt2m64, 196mb of ram, and 500mhz pIII (98SE) I got around 20-40 fps, no tweaks, all default drivers. It doesnt seem to make sense to me!
