In the original game the offset applied to the camera view during an earthquake was calculated at 35Hz due to the fixed refresh rate. This fixed limit has been removed however the view shake offset was still calculated on each refresh frame, meaning it was updating much too often and how much was dependent on frame rate.
Also, since build 386 a sharp tic's worth of latency was introduced to the shake as the actual offsets were not applied until the next time R_UpdateConsoleView was called.
The shake offset has now been moved alongside the calculations for view bob, view height, etc..., in P_CalcHeight (this really needs a new name...).
