Hi everyone, kmeel introducing himself

[kmeel]

Hey!
I'm Florian and pretty new to the game as you have noticed prolly, as I am asking a lot of questions about settings, configurations and whatever comes to my mind on how I can improve my settings. It's something I enjoy doing and messing with.
Found that the mainstream of the community is very friendly and helpfull, really shows how awesome this small left-over community is.

I'm from the Netherlands myself and am gaming on an 8600k@5.0 / 1080ti @2.0 for all you nerds out there.

Cheers

Welcome!

There's a thread on settings to improve play. The most important one is to increase your netspeed setting - as there are so many players and bullets and pickups etc you need as much bandwidth as possible for your machine to be told about as many of them as possible. I have a key bound which I press at the start of every map.

I'm on an i5-3570k / GTX 960 - hardly the speediest machine out there.

Welcome

Thank you!
I've done some googling while playing and testing last week. Currently I've tweeked my UT a bit;
Have the keybind for each game for netspeed 20000.
Monitor is at 240hz, with strobing on, fps capped with rivatuner at 300.
fov 120 @1080 resolution, but playing with this. might be a bit to high
Installed soundblaster update, not sure if this actually does anything.
Playing on 64bit.
And some tweaks to the ini files, also playing with it a bit.

Not looking for an unfair advantage, so please let me know if something is not appreciated. I surely don't have the skills to back it up in-game. But I do find it interesting to tweak these settings.

Welcome to Miasma. I just wanted to inform you all that there is an unwritten rule here to not shoot the player named "NOPE". He is Mildly retarted "probably, most likely" and we all try to not kill him at all costs.

No worries, my skills are poop
