Title: Counter-Strike - best performance
Post by: magillom on 31 July 2005, 16:55:15
1. Download:

WickedGL (from Metabyte folder OpenGL32.dll regular/high resolution):

-OLD WickedGL from 'falconfly.de' web page:
http://www.falconfly.de/downloads/wickedgl-200.zip
(nice image and MAX FRAMERATE; ogl_hres.dll not work on VooDoo3; opengl32.dll (regular) works GREAT!; VooDoo3/4/5)
or
-Special WickedGL Compiled Driver:
http://pa3pyx.dnsalias.org/stuff/wkgl499.zip
(FULL FRAMERATE but...worst image!!!; based on WickedGL v3.02(?); VooDoo3/4/5; 1024/768 not work on my VooDoo3...)


ALL-IN-ONE - all Wicked ver in one archive


All WickedGL: v1.3, v1.4, v1.41, v1.50, v2.00, v2.01, v2.12, v2.14, v2.20, v2.21, v2.22, v2.30, v2.31, v2.99, v3.01, v3.02, v.3.03(?) & Special WickedGL Compiled Driver for VooDoo3/4/5 (all *.exe, ogl_hres.dll & OpenGL32.dll version)
+ BONUS -> 'real' glide2x v3.20.0.1007 from Colouress for more FPS:
http://rapidshare.com/files/6458076/WickedGL.rar.html



2. OGL and glide2x v3.20.0.1007 put into:

-C:\SIERRA\Half-Life (CS v1.5)
(not gldrv or cstrike folder!!!)

-C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\your_account_name\counter-strike (CS v1.6 Steam)
(not gldrv or cstrike folder!!!)

-C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\your_account_name\condition zero (CS:CZ Steam)
(not gldrv or czero folder!!!)



3. Launch V.Control and press "fastest":

Launch the game and use OpenGL, 800/600, 16 bit (if You have VooDoo3).
If You can't see the mouse cursor (MesaFX/OLD WickedGL) open the console (press the ~ key) and type vgui_emulatemouse 1.



4. For WinXP users:

ReForce:
http://www.pagehosting.co.uk/rf/
Use 100Hz (at your own risk!!!) on 800/600 res. In game: open the console and type fps_max 100 or fps_max 101.
U have 100 fps :)
(100Hz->fps_max 100=100FPS; 85Hz->fps_max 85=85 FPS...)

To see FPS type in console:
cl_showfps 1 or net_graph 3



5. CS 1.6 model fix:

-original model fix:
If you have CS:CZ and CS 1.6 on the same account it automaticly imports the new CZ models and character select VGUI into CS 1.6 as an "added bonus".
This models do not fit the same scale as the normal 1.6 ones so it causes aiming problems.
This patch fixes this and returns the CS 1.6 models to normal as well as the character select VGUI pictures.
//http://files.filefront.com/CS+16+model+fixzip/;4121887;/fileinfo.html//

-low polygon model form CS v1.3 (more FPS):
http://gamma.nic.fi/~amaki/files/hfps_103.zip

-blockhead model (much more FPS):
http://gamma.nic.fi/~amaki/files/hfps-pmodels-cs16.zip

Instructions 'How to...'

Extract the contents of this folder to:

-C:\SIERRA\Half-Life\cstrike (v1.5)

-C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\your_account_name\counter-strike\cstrike (CS v1.6 Steam)

-C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\your_account_name\condition zero\czero (CS:CZ Steam)



6. You want MORE fps?

Download this program:
http://www.sorber.be/laurent/hideout/p_omnitweaker.html
This is all user preference, it will boost your FPS. It is extremely easy to use just follow the directions...



7. For VooDoo3 PCI users:

Try to update U BIOS from this page:
http://pa3pyx.dnsalias.org/stuff/v3r21512.zip
My Voodoo3 2000PCI update to 3000PCI works great with 204MHz!!!



Have FUN!!!

Did you try that :
QuoteCS 1.6 (and all Steam releases of HL mods): Install WickedGL, and copy the opengl32.dll file from the wickedgl folder to your system (win9x) or system32 (win2000/xp) folder (you will have to disable file protection first if you are running XP, see here).Make sure to back up the original opengl32.dll file.

darn,how did that "remove file protection part" slip in? gotta remove it,it was part of an older fix that is not needed anymore,the correct fix is here (http://www.shifter.sk/helppage/default_fix.htm#voodoosandcs).

I was so pi$$ed on STEAM when I updated this fix that I have forgoten to completely remove redundant parts.will be fixed within 24hrs.

I had a Voodoo 3 and i couldn't play wolfenstein enemy terrirory so i tried that mesafx,after it failed to work i gave up and just bought a 128mb nvidia GeForce4 MX 4000, and i guess after all that stuff i did i didn't delete something because when i try to play Wolfenstein enemey terrirory it says "hwcInit: 3dfx device not found!". Under device managers it says Nvidia Geforce4 MX 4000 like it's supposed too and i have uninstalled cleared the game folder and reinstalled the game and it says the same thing..

System:
OS: Windows Xp Professional
Processer:AMD Athlon XP 1600+(1.4ghz)
Memory:768mb of RAM
Video card: Nvidia geforce4 MX 4000(128mb)

Any ideas?

When I put the "Opengl32.dll" in the Counter-Strike directory (not in "gldrv") and try to play in the Internet, the server kicks me because it thinks that the file "Opengl32.dll" it's a cheat.

What can I do in order to make it work? It really improved the performance...

In the case you recommend me to put the "Opengl32.dll" in the %System32%, how can I do in order that Windows doesn't replace the file every time I copy&paste it?

Cya!

you will have to disable the xp file protection.see here:

Thanks it worked perfectly!
Should I re-enable the 'Windows File Protection' once I replaced the "Opengl32.dll"? I mean for any security reason?...

Thanks! Bye!

Post by: r21vo on 28 December 2006, 23:36:50
Windows has no security by definition, so there's no real difference whenever on or off ;)
Title: Counter-Strike - best performance
Post by: ps47 on 31 December 2006, 16:55:34
nope,no need to re-enable it.a normal person would never need the file protection in the first place,this was meant for dummies who like to "clean up" the windows folder (deleting all dll files for example)..thats probably the thing I hate the most about xp-it treats me like a total retard..

Mother: MSI MS6199VA (Lastest Bios)
Processor: Intel P3 700mhz
Ram: 2 x 128 pc-100

Voodoo 5 5500 64mb AGP ( Bios 1.18 latest )
Power: XFX ATX 520M
Windows Xp Sp2
and Amigamerlin r31 11

Cs 1.6 runs properly with D3D at 20-40fps

but in OpenGl crashes before enter a server.


I WANT 60 FPS !!! =D someone play that game ? configurations and fps plz !

unpack this archive : http://www.3dfx.cz/download/sfft.zip to your windows/system32 folder and overwrite old files..start CS,select opengl,and it should run better.

if that wont help,try this: http://helppage.3dfx.sk/#voodoosandcs but I'm not sure if it still works,because steam changes things quite often,and I no longer have a working CS account to test it again..
