TOOL: 3Booter, the Incooperative Game Kicker

Hehehe. Besides the night sky is so "awe-inspiring". It's practically the only time you notice it's brillance and vastness, never mind it's ever changing  "surprises". Unlike practically everyone else I know but my hubby, I never miss the meteor showers and the lovely light shows the "Northern Lights" provide us New Englanders. I don't live underground though, but in fact very much above ground - partway up a mountain, atop a foothill of the White Mountains and the White Mountain National Forest.

It works well for me as my pets of choice are Cats - I have 13 which are night creatures themselves. It seems their idea of the only good reason to have sunshine is to grow them herbal grasses and catnip, and as something that provides them a warm and toasty spot to nap away their day in a window.

So, the obtrusive, flashing, green "30" in the upper left corner of the screen. Desired result, problem indicator, or Liz doin' it wrong?

Running TS3 windowed?
That indicator is there, but ought to be hidden behind the fullscreen TS3 window.


What do the flashing numbers mean? Now that you told me about pointing the shortcut to the 3booter, I guess the programs are working and I'm getting the flashing numbers. I can put up with it since I don't want to fry my graphics cards, but am just curious about what the numbers mean.

The 'flashing numbers' are the Frames Per Second. As per Pescado's explanation, TS3 is locked at 30FPS anyway, so it makes absolutely zero sense to allow it to run faster.


If running it at that speed is the best thing for my graphics card, then I am grateful the program was created. Even though my computer is not exactly new, I bought it because of the graphics card, among other things, so I want to protect the card. I just didn't know what the numbers meant.

witch:
Minonda, you shouldn't be seeing large green flashing numbers. I had those and didn't need to have them over-riding the game screen. I tried re-downloading the fpslimiter and that seemed to get rid of them. In the cheat console/command line, you can type "fps on" which puts a tiny framerate number at the top right hand corner of the screen and doesn't dominate the game.

J. M. Pescado:
The large flashing green numbers thing is caused by the FPSlimiter display attaching itself to the wrong window. This seems to just happen randomly. There is not much we can do about it since it is a third-party program with no source.
