BF2S Forums Higher Jumping

Fuck knows.

I can hear a lot of glitchers/exploiters coming.

The game is full of glitches.  And as your sig describes, intead of arguing with people who are up in these spots, I'd rather go knife them.

Did I argue? Or did I just make a statement?

Argument and statement is a different thing.

I play the game regardless anyway.

Cod's built on the quake 3 engine, which had some wonderful little tricks that players exploited. Certain sweet spots in fps would mean that a player could jump higher and further than normal. The sweet spots are at 67, 125, 250 and 333 fps, with higher fps giving more of a bonus in jump distance. I've also heard some whine that 250fps makes you run silent so is illegal to use in competition, while 333 means that you make no sound while firing large weapons like lmgs, so this fps setting was patched out in one of the early patches. 

The thing is, you need to have constant 125 fps, 124fps does nothing. Your framerate may be fluctuating while you look around if your rig is crappy/your graphics settings are too high (staring at the floor will give fps boosts, looking at nice scenery kills fps etc.). There's also a chance that even with the boost you can't make the jump without a technique called strafe jumping, which you can go google because I cba to explain it
If you can't input the command you must be making a typo

Hope that helps

That doesn't make scence. Increasing your frames per second, won't make you jump higher...I mean, what about if you graphics card can't manage more than 125 frames? That's a total bs.

yeah, can you link us to the youtube vid(s)?

strafe jump is only genuine one i believe.

I agree.
On Pipeline, run off the roof and onto the white van to do a superjump onto the building next to the van. 'Tis awesome, only managed it once.

makes me want to go play now


I'm not going to try the jump thing but I still might play

Can someone explain, how the hell this should work just by increasing your fps? I liked to know that.

Increasing your Fps does make you jump higher, at around 300 you can clear barrels walk silently and have your weapons fire faster. This is why Cal/Tgl/Cevo capped it at 125.

What I am saying is, if you can manage to get say only 40FPS max, the default for the com_maxfps is 85. Increasing the FPS is pretty useless, because, the max FPS you can get is 40, and you can't even touch the default value, let alone the 125?

So you need to kill the graphics settings in conjunction with these FPS tweaks?

Yea, I just tried it. I use 1680x1050, as this is my native monitor resolution. And I get around 60FPS. I did the com_maxfps 125, obviously it didn't get up to 125FPS, so I lowered  the resolution to the lowest(obviously looked like shit), I got around 500FPS, and I was able to do the jump over the fence in Crash.

Pretty cool, so to sum it up. You have to reduce the graphics settings as well as increasing your FPS...Put, if you have like 2x 8800GTX or w/e fancy cards, then I think you can get pretty high FPS without lowering the graphics settings.

You can do the Crash jump with 125 fps I just look at the ground. It's the first fps jump that I learned. Anyways yes to get high fps you have tweak your config file unless you have an 8800 Ultra. Most Competitiors don't mind sacrificing graphics though so they can get the 125 fps.
