Why 'com_maxfps 250x' uncaps Quake Live's frame rate

Don't you jump the highest with com_maxfps 333 anyway? Or did Quake Live change this from Quake 3?

    In Quake 3, yes. Here's a nice, short video on this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=he02vJvKaRs

    To achieve 333 fps in Quake Live, you can unlock fps with `250x` and then use an external frame limiter, setting that to 333.

    I haven't tested this, but I would guess that they addressed this bug in Quake Live.

    Tho I still would expect there to be some physics-related issues and other oddities when running the game at 1000 FPS.

The sad part: strtol(s, ..., 0) would've handled hex input automatically...
