anyone know how to fix screen tearing problems?

[Capt DirtBag]

Try this out: Edit newconfig.cfg under the "Main" folder. Add the following line: seta r_swapinterval 1
Hope this works it did for me, I got this from another Forum.

Tearing is generaly associated with vid drivers,
but if nothing else fails what that guy above suggested should help, it certainly wont hurt.

Doing that line after gets rid of tearing, but performance afterwards is shit. opengl sucks and so does the quake3 engine for using it. it just cant seem to do this shit flawlessly like direct3d.

You have no Idea what your talking about its not the OpenGL sucks is that Co's like ATI has shitty drivers, Nvidia has no problem with openGL.
OpenGl rocks and so does the quake3 engine.
the only problem I have with OpenGl games is that they are inherantly Dark, but this can be remedied very easily.

I can almost gurantee he has a ATI vid card, or his drivers are messed

I think he may be talking about V-sync... In that case, it is your vid card..
