have you tried it on a restarted server? (Try on a server with 0 players)

and please be certain its really necessary xd

The moderator just hooked me with the dummy. And he did not let me help others over the map. And when I wanted to exclude him from the vote for the block. He just threw me into the spectators. (edited)

Now that the practice exploit was fixed can someone explain what was the problem? Or link a message from #developer since Im probably not the first to ask xD (edited)

I still don’t understand, he writes about creating a map, although he has never created one, and there is something written there about the letter A, I don’t know what it’s about

they want you to play on a server without the letter [A] (Authorized) - so they know you're not a bot

join any and finish a super easy map - takes 2 minutes !

have you tried whitelisting? do you use a vpn?

Guys, semi serious question. Why Does Teeworlds make my computer run hotter than most applications and is there a way to limit its resource usage?
22:05
Cause I think it literally makes my laptop run so hot it starts to overheat

gfx_refresh_rate 200
22:06
would clamp fps to 200
22:06
u can do even less
22:06
try out what works for you
Avatar
whats it now, unlimited?
22:06
If so why
Avatar
because it's not easy to find a good default value there have been discussions about 4x the screen refresh rate for example
22:07
also as stupid as it sounds clamping fps can also cause stutters
22:08
bcs the GPU might downclock and clock up again
22:08
frequently

i dont know how this really works but isnt it just bad juju to let it hog as much resources as much s possible?

depends on what you define bad
Avatar
Ima try these solutions but it seems almost like allowing what in effect is a CPU/GFX equivalence of a memory leak
22:08
Well is there anything good about it in a game simple as this? : P

ppl buy rtx 4090 and use it for cyberpunk to use 500 Wh

that used to run on like a Pentium IV

is that good, bcs they have a nice looking game or is that bad

to a certain extend it feels smoother with more fps
22:09
on 240hz monitors i'd claim <700 FPS is laggy
22:09
on 60hz maybe 240FPS already look fine
Avatar
It doesnt make sense that a monitor with a faster refresh rate would suffer from a higher fps.
22:11
or rther from a lower fps

<700 means: smaller than 700
Avatar
it would just show the same frame twice
Avatar
have you heard about tearing?
22:12
the screen does not update the whole screen in one go
22:13
more fps can make these update chunks be more consistent
Avatar
Sure but why would you suffer more from a higher refreshrate one with the equivalent fps on a lower refreshrate one

Achul

let's rephrase it: ofc 500 fps still look better on 240hz than on 60hz
22:14
but that doesnt mean that 1000 fps dont look even better
Avatar
Nono what I mean is why would 100 fps on a 240 hz look worse than on a 60hz
Avatar
it doesnt
Avatar
well then : P
Avatar
but 1000 fps look better 😄

I highly doubt your eyes can perceie the difference

100 fps cant even fill the 240hz refresh rate

as said
22:15
i claim i can see it under 700 fps
22:15
bcs i own a 240hz monitor
22:15
so my eyes can see the difference
Avatar
Thats interesting, Ive never had a problem running any game at 120 fps or less.
22:18
Or rather I see no issues
Avatar
if i can also spot the difference between 700 fps and 1000 fps is probably only possible if i play with both for a week or smth but under 700 fps i see it directly

that's totally fine, then just play with 120fps
Avatar
Have you done a legit test on this?
22:18
Like a double blind study with a mate
Avatar
i lowered the fps until i noticed the game felt less smooth
22:18
so yes
22:19
you have to know i played this game a lot
22:19
so maybe i just notice it more easily than other players
22:20
also notice i have around 10k fps unlimited
22:21
so 1000 fps and 500 fps are not much different for my GPU
22:21
maybe 2-3 Watt more usage
22:21
the fact that it is not idle is the bigger difference actually
Avatar
I dont know, it doesnt make much sense to me in many ways.
22:24
I did a bit of googling but I had studied the issue of FPS long ago in my life
Avatar
41W with 500fps 43W with 1000 fps

anyway if you want less tearing, less fps should be in your interest
Avatar
Avatar
Achul

no
Avatar
Because you want less conflict in the images
Avatar
sure but that creates huge input delay xD
22:25
then u can also turn on vsync
Avatar
In fact if you want the least possible tearing id run at 120 fps on a 240 hz
🤨 1
Avatar
that is simply wrong xD
22:25
turn on vsync and u have no tearing
22:25
even if it's exactly 240fps
Avatar
Sure, but vsync is its own issue
22:26
we were just casually talking about what the point of high fps is in regards to tearing
Avatar
but 240fps vsync (or vblank) is better than 120fps no vsync i guess
Avatar
You wont get a "smoother" game at ultra high fps. What you might get is a very very very very slightly better aim where that particular crosshair updates just one tiny fraction of a second faster at a particular point
22:27
for you to fire a headshot a tiny fraction faster
22:27
but possibly at the expense of more tearing
22:28
and I just dont see the advantage in this game of this kind of thing
22:28
but to each their own, try it if u want

u will get a smoother game the higher the fps are simply bcs u will be more lucky to hit the update cycles of the screen chunk updates

how do i change fps in teeworlds annywya btw?

and to be precise, it's always also a matter of input delay
22:29
sure with 60fps u have no tearing... but the 240hz screen will be useless then
Avatar
Oh right thanks, seems to be helping a bit with the overheating
22:30
Yeah
Avatar
btw overheating is basically a different word for, your hardware is not designed properly
22:30
normally the GPU first downclocks
22:30
if it overheats, ur coolers are too bad
22:30
i'd return that laptop in that case
Avatar
I disagree that you get a smoother gameplay but it depends on how much is happening on the screeen. Or how fast youre moving your field of vision. I dont really know where the cut would be
22:31
oh yeah my coolers are shit my laptop is full of dust lol
22:31
but i cant bother openinig it atm

u disagree, but i am certain xD
22:32
i can also play hard gores on 60fps, it's simply not as smooth
22:32
it's not like u suddenly have 0 skill
22:32
if u are fine with 120 fps that's totally fine for me

i cant play teeworlds with less than 200fps bro that's true not opinion
Avatar
no need to use more 😄
Avatar
well i dont play anything hrder than hard so ahha
22:36
But in regards to tearing, if we assume that tearing happens with higher fps then clearly that would not be smoother gameplay. Vsync syncs fps to refreshrate or slightly below anyway
22:36
so then its really pointless to have higher fps, unless i misunderstand what vsync does
22:36
but as I said, maybe people have different understandings of what smooth means, as it can lead to more precise aiming and stuff like this even if its b such a small degree Id call it indifferent

i am trying to activate (cfg) deep fly and others with buttons for example i will have mouse three turns it off and mouse 4 turns it on but it only works when i copy and paste and even if i type it letter for letter it does not work. if i press the binded buttons it says console: failed to open 'dummyNormalMode.cfg' same thing if i type it in letter for letter too
