PepsiFairy Posted July 26, 2004 Report Posted July 26, 2004 There seem to be a slight problem with my S2C Packetloss, its ALWAYS at a steady 0.6. a little backgroundAt first my ISP were offering 1mbps down and 400kpbs up, (still had the 0.6 s2c), when they upgraded to 8mbps down and 1mbps up i had to get a new modem, but is still having the s2c issues. this is in EVERY ssc zone. Even when the sscu redstar server was in sweden i was having 10 ms low, 20 avg, 30 high and 0.6 s2c. My C2S ploss is always 0.0 im connecting through a d-link 604 router, but even without it i still get the 0.6 ploss.Other people in my area havent tested continuum so i cant verify if they have the same problem, but i do know one guy that lives about 1km away got 0.1 s2c and 0.0 c2s. (yes, he is using the same ISP) i have also been trying on different comps, but still have the 0.6 ploss.So any tips on how to fix this?

DJ muppetmaster Posted July 26, 2004 Report Posted July 26, 2004 Yer i get the same problem although my set up isnt as fancy as ursi got 1mb dsl and ive had no lag trouble for ages since i changed from 56k to itbut suddenly for some reason i get probs including my PL at 0.6% and c2susually below 0.1%, wtf is going on? this isnt just in ssc zones in other zones myPL is always at 0.2% Quote
MasterDrake Posted July 26, 2004 Report Posted July 26, 2004 s2c is the server to you its a server side problem :\ Quote
DJ muppetmaster Posted July 26, 2004 Report Posted July 26, 2004 Yes i know what S2C means. but in every single zone including those hosted by myself?and we both get 0.6% PLand my friend next doorwith 512kb gets 0.0%PLboth ways?not sure if ur rite -DJ muppetmaster- Quote
Bargeld Posted July 26, 2004 Report Posted July 26, 2004 turn off stuff in the background... installing apps that run in the background can steal your bandwidth and cause small ploss like this. All of that aside.... 0.6% is NOTHING. You lose an average of 6 out of 1000 packets. Could be server game data, could be position data, could be checksums, could be weapons... but its minimal. The only time you really start noticing ploss is when it gets above 3 and 4 percent. I play on a wireless laptop with 2.5% s2c and I don't care. Quote
DJ muppetmaster Posted July 26, 2004 Report Posted July 26, 2004 do you think i dont close all programs?ive closed firewall, antivirus, turned offstretched wallpaper, i only find this weird because ive rarely had PL past 0.1% andnot had it for every zone i enter.....the thing with mine is it really does shownot just small position jumps full weapons lag i fire a bomb and it goes thru ppli fire a gun and it dissappears straight awayagh its bad-DJ muppetmaster- Quote
Dav Posted July 27, 2004 Report Posted July 27, 2004 you dont really need to worry untill the packetloss reaches 2%. Ad barge said shut down any other internet programs if your worried about it buy .6 is nothing to worry about and it will go away soon enough anyway. Quote
DJ muppetmaster Posted July 27, 2004 Report Posted July 27, 2004 i dont care now but i have NO other internet programs running read the whole post Quote
Samapico Posted July 27, 2004 Report Posted July 27, 2004 but...... why .6 ? why is it always at .6? 2 ppl with the same problem... why not .7 or .5? ... OMG.. IT'S ... IT'S... TEH ALIEENNHZZZ!!! :syrus: IT'S THEM!! GO H1DE URSELF! FAST! :ph34r: :jules: :jules: :jules: :jules: :jules: Quote
MasterDrake Posted July 27, 2004 Report Posted July 27, 2004 who be that you both access the server through the same path Quote
DJ muppetmaster Posted July 27, 2004 Report Posted July 27, 2004 er.. no, fine where do u live Samapico?im from uk im guessing ur from us so that theory is out the window Quote
Samapico Posted July 27, 2004 Report Posted July 27, 2004 me? from US? wtf? ... I don't want to! Quote
PepsiFairy Posted July 27, 2004 Author Report Posted July 27, 2004 I live in the most southern part of sweden. Quote
Bargeld Posted July 27, 2004 Report Posted July 27, 2004 the thing with mine is it really does shownot just small position jumps full weapons lag i fire a bomb and it goes thru ppli fire a gun and it dissappears straight awaythis cannot happen... and it definately can't be blamed on ploss. The game client will always make bombs and bullets hit the enemy on your screen locally, because it doesn't have time to send it to the server then receive the response back from the server, then display that response on your screen.You can never see what the other person sees, so you will never really know whether your bullets/bombs hit. No offense, but what you describe simply cannot happen... You are exaggerating quite a bit. Quote
DJ muppetmaster Posted July 27, 2004 Report Posted July 27, 2004 maybe im exaggerating but PL with me is bad on my other comps its fine but on this one is like the demon of p; but im not exaggerating about bombs going thru ppl and bombs going thru me...... and when i mean disappear straight away, i mean it disappears after the screen goes to next image, i do know u know i wudnt be writing in tech support if i didnt know otherwise....

Bargeld Posted July 27, 2004 Report Posted July 27, 2004 the only answers i have are: A) no prox, looks like it's going thru them and u a cloaker sitting in front of you Quote
DJ muppetmaster Posted July 27, 2004 Report Posted July 27, 2004 this only happens sumtimes, it could only be all the time if it was in the server.cfgso no and a cloaker in front of me thats just dumb cuz the bomb doesnt even explode..... next... Quote
Bargeld Posted July 27, 2004 Report Posted July 27, 2004 There is a point at which your knowledge of the game is exceeded by others. You have hit this point here with me. Either I am unable to properly describe how the architecture of this game works, or you are unable to understand my description. Regardless, for over 7 years I've seen people SWEAR they got hit with a 600 damage bullet in alpha. The max damage is 400, therefore there is another explanation. The same is true here. You swear something is happening, but you are unable to determine it yet. Grasping at reasons and !@#$%^&*igning them as the problem does not help, nor will we learn from it. And BTW.. a cloaker sitting in front of or on top of you WILL cause a bullet to "disappear as soon as you shoot it." Quote
DJ muppetmaster Posted July 27, 2004 Report Posted July 27, 2004 ........... i have a problem and ur arrogant at!@#$%^&*ude ur using isnt helping.... Quote
Bargeld Posted July 27, 2004 Report Posted July 27, 2004 Then lets BOTH keep it calm and try to figure it out. Certain things need to be done in a certain order, so when ppl suggest a solution, sometimes you might want to try it a second or third time, rather than just skipping it. We are here to help, and you simply aren't taking it. Quote
PepsiFairy Posted July 28, 2004 Author Report Posted July 28, 2004 One more question though... my session always d/c at 20-22 hours but my internet is up and running just fine. (im connected to msn, irc, bt, etc..) Quote
