Hi, I've been playing on the same machine for ages, and suddenly, after a break and with no changes to my machine, both 4.1.1 and 4.2 are showing serious lag. I've checked on another machine and the same problem is occuring. I don't have any network issues in terms of dropped packets and my ping is no different.

Because I've tried both clients and two machines and have the same problem on both I suspect that either the problem is my router or upstream. My lagometer is showing very low (thin) green line at the bottom (its normally higher) and I keep getting regular periods of big white spikes increasing in size. The green line is often broken as is the line at the top and the green line sometimes becomes broken in to small bits of line ............

Does anyone know how to investigate this problem? Where are log files kept etc? I am running on Ubuntu studio 64 bit (I have tried low-latency and generic kernel with same problem).

Many thanks

Hi.
I need you guys to tell me what settings in network part of game to set up.
For me of course. I have 4Mb adsl connection. I have not have big problems with this until i instaled new update.
But it is, know to give me a lot Connection interrupted text and then i must restart game in order to play. That was before i instaled newest update.

Now the ping is in constant movement, it move a lot in only 1 sec (20,30,40,70) it change ping so fast that is almost inpossible to se ping values(numbers) and than game stop for second or two, like stop working, but when that pass it work.

I still have problem. Game fork fine, but on every minut or two it take stop like slow down and fps is drop down to 0 and that last for 1 second approximately. I do not have any background programs that are activi, becouse i want good perfomanse in game. I try to change resolution in game than to change fps rate from 30 to 125 and it is same. Did game system requirements maybe change?

rate "25000"
cl_maxpackets "42"
com_maxfps "125" or "83" when your system can't handle stable 125fps

Do you share your internet with others?
Have you the same problem on all servers?

I've noticed that my ping will oscillate when swithching from the default value of 90 fps to 125 fps. If you set cl_maxpackets to the same value as com_maxfps this will go away.

in console:

\com_maxfps 125
\cl_maxpackets 125

anything else is probably a networking issue related to playing on wireless, sharing your connection with other traffic, or maybe your location and the standard of networking infrastructure there compared to the load.

Ok, I just was confused because the in game gui was not changed, go for 125 packets then.

[PredraG]

What change in this new update, and bring this lags ?
I will try this one later
/com_maxfps 125

/cl_maxpackets 125
Why dont you add in gui this values?

When you say confused you mean that in gui max is only 42. Right? Guys put than in gui in next update. You mean to add 125 in console, like the thelionroars say it. Right?

This game is based on very old technology, with many years of building on top of that. Unfortunately, this often means improvements to some part of the game can lead to problems somewhere else. I've heard the menus are particularly bad.
