Vertical Sync problems with geforce 3, also how do you show

Is anyone else having Vertical Sync (when you turn real fast and the graphics get choppy) problems with their Geforce3 card? I made sure that the Vertical Sync was turned on in my desktop settings but it didn't help. Also how do you view your FPS in game?

Wow, this guy is giving me insight in something that bothered me for a while, I was always getting smooth gameplay but when turning, things would appear slightly choppy or like line cuts... what the hell is that ?

I GET THOSE LINE CUTS or whatever they are.....game is smooth, but this fluttering or whatever it is is sooooooooo annoying...hopefully its only in the demo...maybe there is a fix?

I use to have the problem with all games until I went into the desktop settings and clicked that Vertical Sync always on box. It use to work in Quake3, but then it stopped. Maybe the newer drivers did something? But anyway I have the problem in all Q3 games now, RTCW MOH ect.

Ok here's the fix:

go into: ...MOHAANetDemomain open up newconfig.cfg and add the line: "seta r_swapinterval 1" without the ""

Hey that works, swap interval!

What does it do anyhow?

Thanks, you saved me alot of visual headache.
