There is only one reason I can think of for using -fps without -sp. The server I run on is at home, behind a cable modem with a 1Mbps upload cap and a hideous rate limiter courtesy of the ISP if I go over the cap. When I connect from friends houses to play, I find that I have to set -fps to some ridiculously low value (1 or 2) and turn down the quality in the TurboVNC Viewer in order to avoid hitting the cap.
I'm not sure how the game will perform if I limited the 3D rendering rate to the -fps value. --- Thanks, Dyweni On 2013-06-04 20:51, Nathan Kidd wrote: > On 06/04/2013 06:27 PM, DRC wrote: >> On 6/4/13 3:16 PM, Dyweni - VirtualGL-Users wrote: >>> You are correct.
