Default refresh rates - 10-15-2002, 09:29 AM

Hello,
When I run the game it locks the refresh rate @60Hz.
My desktop is set to 1280x1024 @85
Is there any way to bump the in-game refresh rate up?
I have
(just upgraded)
WindowsXP
Radeon9700pro
and also have latest patch 1.1US/UK

I'm at work now so I don't have a link handy. But there is a 3rd party addon.
So you can use your current desktop refresh in your games.

I found this link but I dont remember if it's the same one I had b4.

You can also check http://www.google.com ,
Do a search on "ati refresh fix"

Open the console with the ~ key. Type fps 1, press enter, press ~ again to close console and the fps will display in the lower left had corner. Hope that is right oOo:

My monitor has a 'viewmeter' which tells you resolution and refresh rates in an active program.
(Viewsonic)
Your monitor might have the same if you go to your menu(menu button on the monitor), while in a game you can check the current refresh rate.
I had the same thing happen to bf1942 but I checked a thread which explained how to fix it.
check this thread out(it's the #4)
http://www.bfnation.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=2821
this worked by unlocking the refresh rates in the game.
I'm looking for something similar in mohaa.
I can't really say if this happened when I had WinMe never checked it then.
If not, I'll check out what rudedog suggested.

The screen has less flicker, 60Hz is kind of low, 85Hz and up are good depending on the monitor.

yes MOH runs opengl.

The refresh problem is WinXX related and not a problem with a particular game.

By using this 3rd party program, you can increase the amount of horizontal refreshes your monitor uses to display moving images. the more the better. Be careful running a refresh over your monitors rated rate can damage it. 70 -85 Hz is a fine and much easier on your eyes.

Thanks for the link Rubberman.

OK, I'm a little late, but here we go:

I find that the NV Refresh tool isn't all that great. I discovered Riva Tuner. It's alot more advanced, but still easy to use. Check it out here:

PS: I run MOH:AA at 120mhz! biggrin:
