Reading back a bit and as a though that might help to track it down players are not limited to using the engine that we supply as part of the update system. Unless a optimized engine is designed to run Urban Terror and Urban Terror alone you are all free to use any idtech3 based engine you wish, you know. ;)

If you want you can copy the ioUrbanTerror.exe used in 4.1 into your 4.2 folder and use that engine to run the game.

Interesting...
When I use the default 4.1 .exe and /connect to a 4.2 server everything works.
EXCEPT that I get MICRO FREEZES.

When I use the 4.1 exe in 4.1, I get no freezes.
When I use the 4.1 exe in 4.2, I get the same freezes I get with the 4.2 Quake3-UrT.exe .

OK now we are getting some place. Starting to smell like something to do with raw mouse support?

Maybe someone using this feature with no problems could post their settings?


Interesting read. Try capping at the lowest FPS and see what happens?

I assume you mean when you use the 4.2 exe with 4.1?

Negative.
When I use the 4.1 exe in 4.2 I get freezes.
It has no auth, or at least it doesn't automatically login with my authkey file; but if I /connect I can hit 4.2 servers

When I use the exact same 4.1 exe in 4.1, I get no freezes.

When I use r00t's 4.2 ioquke3.x86.exe in 4.2 I get no freezes.

"Micro stuttering" as that article describes would seem to be visual frame irregularity.
What I'm experiencing is more like a "lock-up".
Even with regular "4.1 yellow spike on the netgraph lag" I am able to shoot, but the shot happens at an irregular time. What I am experiencing during these new 4.2 "micro freezes" is a momentary nullification of the green lower portion in the netgraph during which time all commands are NOT received; and if I fire at the precise moment, my shot doesn't happen and my ammo is not decreased.

[thelionroars]

would this freezing/stuttering show up in a fraps recording?

[wTf|beautifulNihilist]

Never used fraps. Will try

[wTf|beautifulNihilist]

Fraps drops the FPS way down and causes it's own stutters.
