So I wanted to spend my 5 day weekend playing et lol, but I found out I cant because of low fps and lagometer stopping all this since I updated to win 10, any ideas about how to fix it?

Weird ET is one of the only things that works for me in 10 ... do you run with any compatibility mode or anything?

Are you sure your driver for your video card is compatible with windows 10?
What are your system specs?

Could be a conflict with dual video devices? I only have issues when the server is having issues, like the other day when multiple people were crashing at once and only a few were on W10.
Seriously, I haven't had issues with W10 besides when I first upgraded my realtek audio drivers were garbage, but have since been updated. Did you do an upgrade or a new install?

If you havent figured this out try using the console command "/r_primitives 2", it fixed all the issues i was having.

Hi You can try clic the exe with secondary mouse button and choose run as administrator, in win xp it was not necessary but in win7 is needed, maybe in win10 too.

Fixed! Just had to reinstall the Catalyst control center, direct it to allow applications to control the settings of the vid card then enter the /seta r_primatives 2 and now I'm rolling along at 90 fps. Game on!

I realize I'm late to the party, but thought I would add some to this. In my experience if you are running a relatively new graphics card the you should use /seta r_primitives 2 Since ET and Quake Live use the id Tech 3 Engine, the cvars should be the same: r_primitives [-1|0|1|2] -1 = skips drawing 0 = uses glDrawelements if compiled vertex arrays are present, or strips of glArrayElement if not. 1 = force strips 2 = force drawElements Source if you want to see more cvars: www.regurge.at/ql/

I'll be taking the plunge this weekend time permitting. Looks like the issues are pretty easy to solve, i.e. even I could do it!

Just a reference. I had no issues with my upgrade and was playing ET less than an hour after I started the upgrade. I have a Nvidia 630M GT in this machine.
I don't love MS, but I do feel a need to be a devil's advocate to the people that rag on them all the time.
