thanks!

Here you go. There's a few glows and other settings you could toggle for a few extra fps.
Also change cl_maxfps "1000" to whatever your highest steady framerate ends up being with ths cfg.

on the ezquake menu options, graphics, you can choose "fastest" from the preset list. looks very fast  never argue with an idiot. they'll bring you back to their level and then beat you with experience.

gl_texturemode gl_nearest VS gl_linear_mipmap_linear
Using gl_nearest has NO performance benifit 1. best case (in combination with low gl_max_size): identical fps 2. worse case: less than half the fps
gl_linear_mipmap_nearest vs gl_linear_mipmap_linear
1. best case: 3-4 extra fps 2. worse case (in combination with low gl_max_size): identical fps 'on 120 ping i have beaten mortuary dirtbox and reload' (tm) mz adrenalin 'i watched sting once very boring and not good at all' (tm) mz adrenalin [i]'i shoulda won all
