Performance improvements •
-------------------D3D8 to D3D9 wrapper-----------------------------------
The 64-bit build of the game comes with an experimental D3D9 renderer, which offers better performance with modern hardware, but has issues such as broken graphical effects. Therefore, it is recommended to use the following unofficial D3D8 to D3D9 wrapper with the 32-bit version of the game, which will display the whole graphical featureset of the game combined with better performance.
Download latest version of d3d8.dll from:
https://github.com/crosire/d3d8to9/releases
*Put it in the system folder
-----------------Disable "Reduce mouse lag-----------------------------
The game comes with an option to "reduce mouse lag" checked by default, however this option actually functions like a waitstate for the GPU and was put in place to help with input lag in the sub-30 FPS range, which was not uncommon for systems of the time of the game's release. On modern systems this option often cuts FPS in half without any benefits, so it is recommended to disable it. This may also solve some reported Windows 10-specific issues.
Open path-to-game\System\ut2004.ini
Find ReduceMouseLag and change each occurrence to
ReduceMouseLag=False.
Save and close the file.
----------------FPS------------------------------------------------------------------------
Look for section [IpDrv.TcpNetDriver].
Change the value for keys MaxInternetClientRate and MaxClientRate to 20000.
Look for section [Engine.LevelInfo].
Change the value for key MaxClientFrameRate to whatever you want the FPS-limit of the game to be. Dont be surprised if the game doesnt show you your desired FPS limit as its average, the game only has a few limits it actually supports.
Look for section [D3D9Drv.D3D9RenderDevice].
Change the value for key DesiredRefreshRate to the refresh rate of your Monitor in Hz.
In order to activate unlimited FPS you have to type netspeed 20000 into the console every time you join a map.
-----------------FOV----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
open console in game and type FOV 120 or configure in user.ini with desiredfov
