Hi Chris!
I want to do some benchmarks on Quake3 Arena but it just dont work.
Someone told me to type \timedemo 1 than \demo demo001.dm3 but I don't see any FPS indicator. The only thing that happen, is the demo speeding up.
Also, I get a "cheating protected" message when I type \timedemo 1.
What am I suppose to do ?
Thanks.

Drop the console with the '~' key, and type 'timedemo 1,' then 'demo demo001.' Once this is done running through, drop the console again, and your frame rate will be displayed.
Great, now those Quake III timedemo nightmares are coming back...
Ciao!

How can you make Q3 loop in timedemo forever to test the system ?
I was wondering the exact same thing. Anyone? Would be nice for some of my overclocking tests. Used to be much fun to run crusher.dm2 and wake up the next morning with it still going!
Ciao!

Forever looping demos idea
Create two .cfg files; loop1.cfg and loop2.cfg
loop1.cfg goes like this:
timedemo 1
demo demo001.dm3
exec loop2.cfg
loop2.cfg goes like this:
demo demo001.dm3
exec loop1.cfg
To start the demo loop, type exec loop.cfg at the console
Will this work?

I have done it before but it slips my mind. I will ask John C again, he told me the first time...

You don't have to use the console or type anything to run the demo benchmark. Just choose demo instead of Single Player or Multiplayer at the first menu...
if you were looking for just to know constantly how many fps your getting type in
~
then type
/cg_drawfps 1
this doesnt show a average framerate, but it WILL show where the worst/best framerates are (indoors vs. outdoors, etc)
i discovered that a GeForce DDR can somehow give 13-5x fps at 2048x1536x32xhighest quality
i have a screenshot of me getting 39 fps at 2048...
all i have is dual P II Xeon 450 2MB, asus XG-DLS, 768MB PC100, win2K, geforce DDR
