Default HL2DM lag! - 13-12-2004

Is it me, or is my uber l33t cable getting nuts?

on normal games, even CS 1.x and such, Low pings 50.

On HL2DM, it says on the server i join "ping 50". then when i am in, the ping goes from 50 up to 200 and back. Like its having a RANDOM_LONG() build in or something. But even worse, its REAL ping, not faked

So, ok, i guess the physics just eat up a lot of crap. But then again, how do i optimize my settings then? Perhaps anybody else has suggestions?

the problem is there arn't a lot of great servers for HL2DM yet.. and the fact that there are still many problems with relaying information from person to person with all the new physics... remember there are a lot of variables now.. even on lan people have pretty high pings

Heyyo,

It's the physics. There's this 1 level I got, "evn_physics_b2" where you can spawn all the possible physics by buttons that align the side of the map. It's a multiplayer physics test level, so the more items you spawn, the more it lags down. Eventually even at pings of 80 you have to wait 1/2 a second to launch off stuff with your grav gun....

you can try editing those cl_cmdrate or something like that, and try raising your package count....


Later-a-much, and LONG LIVE THE D!,

Heyyo,

http://halflife2.filefront.com/

It's in one of those mappacks. You can see both from the homepage.

[EDIT]
Oh, for you Halo fans (like me) there's that barney_gultch map, a very early version of a popular Halo map... canya guess which? plus there's a Warthog ripped straight from HaloPC in there, ! just needs a texture fixup...
