Create a wordpad file put the following in it:

Put the following in it:

// bind "Vsync on and off"
set vsync_on "r_swapinterval 1; set vsync vstr vsync_off;vid_restart
set vsync_off "r_swapinterval 0; set vsync vstr vsync_on;vid_restart
set vsync "vstr vsync_on"
bind F9 "vstr vsync"

Note - Your key to bind may vary.

Save the file as text named as:

custom.cfg

Save it in your 'main' directory.

Your autoexec.cfg has a command:

// execute custom binds and commands
exec custom.cfg

It will automatically run the custom.cfg file.

*What will this do?*

It'll let you toggle between vsync on and vsync off.

You'll notice an immediate FPS boost with vsync off but you may notice texture tearing indoors. In this case I recommend turning it on. With mostly outdoor maps you may notice a performance hit with vsync on. I recommend toggling vsync off when you play those.

To show the FPS counter, add the following to your MOH:AA shortcut and run it - you will only need to do this once per installation:

+set ui_console 1

The executable should look like the following:

C:gamesMOHAANetDemoMOHAANetDemo.exe +set developer "1" +set ui_console 1

Your path may vary.

After you run the game by itself, do the following:

~

FPS 1

The ~ brings down the console and simply type FPS 1.

Exit the game.

In the future the game should display your FPS readout.

If you want to turn off the command, simply do the samething but type:

FPS 0

Hope this helps!

Also, add this line to the end of your custom.cfg

seta r_displayrefresh ##

## = the refresh rate of your monitor.

For instance I run mine at 85 on my desktop so I have the command:

seta r_displayrefresh 85

This should remove any flicker effects if you get any of those.

And, if you want to get the most out of your FPS, especially with vsync off, I recommend pushing your FPS to the max.

Put the following line in your custom.cfg:

seta com_maxfps 120

The default is 85 but this should give the most out of your potential FPS.

Have fun!

Nice work

Never forget the command cmdlist. All the console tampering commands that you need.
