I have high packet loss when I open 3 continuum on three different computer. My friends sometime come over and play. My C2S will increasing to 3.0+ if I open three and so as the other, however if I only open two, those continuums run smoothly with no losses. This packet loss only happen in flagging zones. My ping is relatively low. Usually, there isn't a problem in any other game. Any help is appreciated.

Security:MaxShipTypeSwitchCount is currently set at 20, and yet it allows what appears to be an unlimited number of ship changes to anyone (might not be unlimited but I gave up around 130). I've tested it myself under an aliased, non sysop name, had a normal player test it, had several others test it, changed it to other numbers, recycled the zone, etc. Pretty much tried everything I can think of and still its as if the setting is totally ignored. I know its not the Security:SecurityKickOff setting as that is currently set at 1 and if Security:MaxDeathWithoutFiring is exceeded then you're kicked off and it says in the log thats the reason why. I'm really stumped …

Hey hey, Using a Lenovo X301 with Integrated Intel 4500HD graphics. Latest drivers, latest directx, Profile resolution set, refreshs et , etc etc, FPS is ok on an area with no action and no tiles, then instantly drops to very jerky when theres other ships/tiles etc. Software Emulation fixes the problem, but I was wondering more about the cause and if it can be avoided/fixed. I know the 4500HD is crap, but I'd have atleast thought it could pull 1440x900 (res of display) at 60fps quite comfortably. Any ideas ?

Just so I can gve this link to my friend who can send this to his dad? I would really like to see him back in continuum, as he is from the VIE days. Thanks all, -Req

Hi, I just bought a new monitor and I can't get SS to change resolution. It gives me low res no matter what the setting. It's wide screen LCD at 1440x900. With Cont. open, I can select a large res, but it doesn't matter. Thoughts? I've updated Direct X & monitor driver. Running XP. thx, 11

S2C loss and Trace showing 50% loss and increases....

Hey there, I have been playing Continuum now for Oooo liturally years. Decided the other day to re-install it on my new computer, but for some reason I keep getting an extremely high S2C % and when doing a trace run, first refresh everything is fine, then next one is 50% loss, then increases up to 90%+. I have Vista Home Basic and a Wireless router, but never had any problems with this on my old computer, which used the same thing. Any ideas what might be the problem?

By default, for Advanced Options I use Show Default Resolutions, Avoid Page Flipping, and No Framerate Limit. I have tried Creemy's set of Advanced Options (and it did not work): Avoid Page Flipping, Disable Clipping, and No Framerate Limit. I have tried unchecking everything Advanced Options with no success. I have tried checking Banners in Advanced Options with no success; instead of banners appearing blue'ish, they appeared lightblue or skyblue colored.

Hi, I'm TerminatioN, current sysop at SSCC RedStar. We are experiencing a problem where players will be kicked out of the zone and are unable to re-enter. Here is what happens: The player will be in the zone for any random amount of time and for whatever reason (my only guess is severe lag), I will get a red sysop message saying "WARNING: Packet flood from" from their IP. Shortly after they will be kicked from the zone. Upon attempting to re-enter they say the client will sit at the black screen as if trying to connect to the zone, but it will stay there for a long period of time, after which they get the error message "Check to make sure that you are connected to …

Firstly, I'm using Vista... On this computer anyway. I'm unsure if this problem has already been addressed but I'm wondering why I get this error when trying to install Continuum "Setup was unable to create the directory "C:\Program Files\Continuum". Error 5: Access is denied" My bad if this was in the F.A.Q.(which I scanned real quick).

I just installed MW4: Mercenaries... The game loads fine, plays the intro animations fine, then I get to the Pilot selection screen, I hit 'new', then as soon as I mouse-over one of the 4 factions, instant freeze... no 'crash', but total freeze, can't alt-tab out, have to ctrl-alt-del. Basically it should play some small .avi file at that point... I checked in the folders, the avi's are there (it gives an error if they are not, anyway), and I can play them fine. I only found 2 topics on the internet about this crash, one without solution, and the other suggested to make sure you have the codec and try k-lite codec pack. I already have that codec pack, and I can play t…

Fuzzy here, i am using ubuntu edgy eft and am able to load continuum using wine. The game itself loads fine and i am able to get into the main menu . But when i go to download zones it says that it cant find the servers to download. I am trying to connect to auto.subdir.net auto.subdir.org sscentral.sscuservers.net sscentral.trenchwars.org ssdir.playsubspace.com warpath.hlrse.net shar . It wont connect to any of these. Could it be that i am behind a firewall or something that would be preventing me from accessing these files. I am trying to do this on my work computer so i don;t want to tamper with it too much. I'd love to hear from yall with any suggestions or things to…

Hey, just started getting the problem where continuum.exe continually kills itself and relaunches but never opens. I'm on Windows XP SP3 with patches up to date. I've uninstalled pretty much everything from the system that could be resident in memory and scanning processes, disabled automatic start up of everything non-windows, disabled DEP both by adding continuum.exe to the exception list, and after that didn't work added /NoExecute=AlwaysOff to boot.ini to disable DEP completely Changed the max frames to render ahead to 0 in nvidia control panel. Tested all compatibility modes from continuum.exe properties and tried Run As... No luck with anything so far. Rea…

Hello, I have a zone called Aarbear test. I've been going in and out of it for quite some time... even today. This afternoon I decided to reinstall continuum because I had the subspace folder on my desktop... and I just wanted to reinstall it so everything would be in the correct spot. (programfiles/continuum) I took out all the files I didn't want to be reset, my profiles/macros/banners ecc.) I also took out my zones (aarbear test) folder. So I reinstalled continuum, replaced the new files with my old files I wanted to keep, and I also stuck my zones folder in my cont folder... because thats where i have always kept it. So I proceed to log into my zone... and it doesn't …

Hey guys, My Zones are all red. I have already made sure that Continuum is not disbled or blocked by firewalls, and have even uninstalled and installed it two times. I have used System Restore, since SS was working just last night! Right now, since I uninstalled, I have no zones at all and can't even "Download" them anymore since SS does not send information back to me. Looking at my network connections I can see that I am sending Continuum information but am recieving 0! Can anyone help me out?
