A word on game pc and game server home builds is in the works. Stay tuned.
-
A word on Readyboost and Superfetch And that word, or words, is USE THEM. These are services found in Vista and 7, and all furture M$ os will use likely them. Their roots are in XP's prefetch service, but they are much more advanced, to the point of even knowing the usual times you fire up a certain app. Use them.…
-
A word on mice and ports: Most of us run a usb kb and mouse, right? Well, sometimes running a mouse on the ps2 port, if your system has one, will reduce latency a bit. Many mice come as usb natively but have a ps2 adapter in the box as well, if you lack a ps2 adapter go find one. Once again, this is not a night and day…

Try it and see.

There are at least two time parameters at work here. One is cpu time the thread can run for, wich is allocated by the os and somewhat depends upon the pci or system bus while the other is the time the os allows a thread to run. Up (uniprocessor) systems usualy run at a normally 10ms time slice while mp (multiprocessor)…
-
I suspect that it allows the ai to complete whatever task they are tasked with before the timed task routine changes their task. This is what makes them start off on a patrol and in the middle of the map as they are going to the enemy base they turn around and go back, as they have been retasked. Realtime seems to…
-
Try it. Use the stock ai and see how they play first if you can. Then run the upgraded ai. They perform much better and do things they normally don't at lower pri settings. The upgraded ai should be pretty spectacular in realtime but they were better anyway.
-
A word on consumer grade routers: Rooters are everywhere. They run teh interwebz. And you might even use one at home. If you do and that rooter runs the Linux 2.4 kernel in its os you can reduce latency a bit by employing a rooter that runs the Linux 2.6 kernel. The 2.4 kernel is not preemptive whereas the 2.6 kernel is.…

Roberto, next time you are messing with the ai, set the server to run at realtime under task manager. Even the stock non-Lagg ai are pretty ferocious and do things they never do when the server is not running under realtime. They are even better with Laggs, of course. By the way, ms os don't really do realtime, they fake…
-
A word on in-game network settings: If you haven't already done so, in the game, open the options menu and select networking. If you have a form of broadband as an innerweb connection, select cable/t1 rate and set the packet size to 450 and rate to 32 or whatever the max is. If you are on a slow form of dsl or even dialup,…
-
A word on DHCP and DNS: Leases are messy. If you are old enough to know or have a lease you know they can be messy. When your system boots up, one of the things it does, if you use DHCP and DNS to obtain an ip address from your network, is request an ip address and DNS server info from the DHCP server online, and it does…
-
A word on netstack tuning: You might be saying to yourself what is this netstack he speaks of? I know no netstack. Besides, what does this stack thing have to do with our beloved game? I am here to reveal your netstack to you wondering eyes and expose and expound upon its features, how you can control and adjust those…
-
Its all due to the lack of balance inherent to the game.
-
Sniping of any form is Blakhart approved.
-
A word on services: Services, also known as daemons in the *nix world, are background servers that perform tasks on your system. Some of them are needed so as to be able to boot, some are superfluous and unneeded by most. Some are always running, taking cpu time and memory but you never use them. So, what if we could stop…
-
Do you have any other maps with ai, maps such as dx, scara, the classic tribes map types? I would love to have them. Roboroute would be a good way to teach the ai routes to cap with.
-
Hi! Perhaps you've heard of networked search engines? They're very popular today, and with good reason. http://www.astrolorf.com/t2scripts.htm
-
I wonder if the fixremap script would help?
-
Should have mentioned that in the post re frameskippa huh.
-
Isn't there a button to make all the binds default? Or just delete the keybind file after saving it of course. The game should remake it.
-
Did ya get rid of the script dso?
-
I misspoke to a degree in my above reply. Networking can have an effect similar to reduction in fps when the network is having dificulties such as packet loss and lag. When this happens you will see the screen stutter or even freeze, but your fps remains normal. So this begs the question; how are you measuring fps?
-
The router will have no impact on frame rate. Fps and networking are unrelated. I am thinking there is something going on with your pc when this happens. Something running in the background or whatever. Do you have "power saving" or similar enabled in the vid card driver or anything? When this happens, what is running on…
-
So heavies move as fast as in classic? The spam will be familiar at least.
-
Are you sure your'e not confusing spam with skill?
-
Alt plus f4 activates the built in t2 aimbot.
-
Also, if you run the frameskippa script you will show higher fps than refresh rate, even though your vsynch is enabled.
-
Well done thou faithfull t2 player.
-
Try another driver and see if that changes anything.
-
Have you set up the video settings in game?
