Title: iMac config help / suggestions
Post by: xlancealotx on May 23, 2011, 10:10:23 AM
Going from a windows PC and a 24 monitor I want to now take it to my iMac 27'.  I have it downloaded, but it's slow as crap (the windows machine is even older and hardware is not as new either.)

So I was wondering if anyone else was running on a mac and can suggest some tweaks for the q3config file that would improve performance.

Thanks!

Whether it's a mac or anything, tweaking is rather the same.
Have an eye there:
(DO NOT LINK) h t t p s : / / openarena . wikia . com/wiki/Tweak#Tweaking_which_improves_performance

Also try changing resolution (lowest isn't necessarily the most performant, not always logic)
And use: cg_drawfps 1
... to get a clue of how well OA runs.
