Lagging server

by **xochi** » Wed Dec 22, 2010 10:19

Hi all
I know that this maybe is normal, but last weeks it is very annoying.
I have it most of the times when i'm in battle with few persons and i am moving very quickly that everything starts to lag.
And then you get killed, that is very irritating.
But my question is how come the lag is now so hard.
I know before it was not that laggy on the servers when the IP: 213.239.219.249:27960. Can you explain how this comes.
And it is not only the map and the players,
i play also on outher servers and there I don't have the problem, But PS is my home

so I always play there.

This does not seem like "lag" but FPS problem. FPS is frames per second and determines how many pictures your graphic card can produce every second. If this gets below 30-25 you will sense a "laggy gameplay" ....
So, my advice is to turn on the FPS COUNTER, so that you can see if it gets low during battle. It's probably because of that

ah and how can I solve this problem because this is a new laptop so would be weird if the graphic card is not that good

Hey!!

Ammz is right :wink:

But xochi what graphics card you have? :?:

FPS lags have allot of reasons:

Artillery smoke could have sudden FPS drops,
The map can have some parts where you can experience some lower FPS
It could also come serversided because there are many people on, and allot is happening around you. Your computer must be able to process it ofcourse.

Afaik ET works from the CPU and not from the GPU. A better graphic card won't help it.. Not sure tho, thought I read something about that, a while ago.

I noticed it also that I lag more in PS1 than in any other server. So I have exactly same problem as xochi at the moment. And it isn't a FPS problem for me.

if it is my processor that would be weird i have a intel core i5 so that would be weard and graphic card is a ATI Mobility Radeon tm HD 5470.
So would also be weird.
My FPS are mostly 150-100 & sometimes 70 .

but for the rest it is weird. I think it is something with the new ip address that causes lag , maybe because there is a outher server that is like 1 digit different than you that causes lag :S

or related to your connection as it doesnt need 2 be something on ur pc like most ppl alrdy applyed here such as your video card and many other.

imo: ive worst pc then you post what u got here above, and i got quiet no lag at all.
should be weird if its caused by the dedicate server itself.

and if iam not wrong ps1 dedicate root server also share with 1 other ps server,

but its indeed a weird case if u say u aint got lag on other server then besize u had on ps1

No it has nothing to do with your IP address, I have the same problem but I am in wifi :cry:

Xochi you is not wireless? :?:

by **GooGle** » Fri Dec 24, 2010 13:42

i guess for the most of the people who play on PS1 is lag not something new, but have to say that the last week ps lags more then before? dont think its only fps stuff..
but enough cry its christmas time we must be happy atm and not cry about things like laag:)

btw merry X-mas!

by **xochi** » Fri Dec 24, 2010 15:14

i dont play wireless

. And lag is just irritatint you are shooting a guy and then you see him going like he is a god

or you just get stuck for moment.
I always have it when I am shooting against 3 vs 1 or when i have a battle that takes more as 4 sec :S. But i still dont know what is cause at moment.

Probably pc issues u got or maybe sux aim

or also possible bcuz of ping difrence with some players

hi xochi,

if you got the "Connection Interrupted" screen, than it is LAG, like here:

but if everythring freezes or your movements you enter via keyboard / mouse arent executed as fast as you enter them, than it is clientside related bad hardware. probably too much stuff running in the background of your PC with too less CPU power to support it.

by **boemerang** » Fri Dec 31, 2010 10:39

Heey guys
well i now one thing for sure its not my computer anymore that couses lag...i have played pretty much last two months and also i noticed that connection is worse.

To make the point, last week i bought new pc and its fast...focking fast

int Core i7-950 1366
d3 6 GB
radeon SApp 2 GB HD 5970
g510 keyboard
g500 mouse
samsung s223c screen 1920 x 1080

overclocked it and no suprise its realy fast can play rtcw et on most heavy settings trilliniar etc etc etc and still get een fps of 400
some maps dont theey even give me a drop to 80 fps but when i walk into the map it will be around 400 again.
Ofcourse i have to get used to my new mouse etc but i already noticed a gain of 5 % accuracy BUT
Still have a lot of lags ofcourse when your fps is set to high you also lag but capped it so no more fps lag i thought and now comes the clou,
i think it has nothing to do with the network your cable connection or your system or settings i noticed that when you play a map and you start the map and face forward your fps is lowest as soon as you walk into the map your fps raises, imagine some from the other side of the map has the same and you walk to eachother, as long as the two people walk same speed and meet in the middle your fps is pretty the same, but when you meet on 2/3 of the map there is a big difference in fps this makes it difficult to aim becouse you have to adjust to your fps i experienced it as lag.. but it isnt it is differnence in fps.

How to solve this wel tell me...the only thing i can come up with is that the server is not capable of running smooth or maybe the settings on ps1 are different so program on server is not set as good as ps3 or ps5 OR its just a bug in rtcw to many people with heavy systems rtcw cant handle anymore

i take it as it is...at least iam pretty sure its not my system that couse the trouble and that gives some rest..

All the best for the new year and frag you soon

To what fps did you cut it?

by **boemerang** » Fri Dec 31, 2010 13:01

com_maxfps 333

by **sjonge** » Sun Jan 02, 2011 15:01

boemerang wrote:com_maxfps 333

my game starts lagging at 333 as well
I suggest you cut it at 125 which should be plenty

by **xochi** » Sun Jan 02, 2011 16:37

thx boemerang and sjonge and all. While try it out i think i have to take the maxfps 333 becasue the 125 would be the low for my laptop so better higher then.
