/snaps 60 /cl_maxpackets 120 Title: Re: Lower Ping Post by: TheMechanicalHand on August 07, 2007, 03:14:57 AM uhhh... small problem i tried on a server and my ping did not change at all
Title: Re: Lower Ping Post by: sago007 on August 07, 2007, 03:23:43 AM Maybe it is your geographical location. Ping grown with the distance and the number of routers the data have to travel trough.
I cannot get a good ping on the servers outside Europe. The Intercontinental lines are generally not well suited for gaming.

The /rate and /cl_maxpackets are both dependent on your current connection. Using the /snaps will provide you with a smoother experience if the server allows that setting to be changed, a key value for this is /snaps 40 (the amount of that the server sends out). When it comes to that /rate and /cl_maxpackets, use the /cg_lagometer 1 to determine what the best configuration for you is, for more information about how to read it, check this article (http://gameadmins.com/modules.php?name=Sections&op=viewarticle&artid=5).

/rate 25000 /cl_maxpackets 60 /cl_packetdup 1 /cl_timenudge -20 Title: Re: Lower Ping Post by: dmn_clown on August 31, 2007, 03:45:02 PM /cl_timenudge -20 Is only useful if your ping averages around 40, this should be set at the inverse of half your average ping (e.g. your average ping is 200 = /cl_timenudge -100). [edit] For masochists: set cl_timenudge to 1000 and enjoy the lag |
