Wierd Lag!!!

[.:BoS:.Gringo]

k this is whats going on with the lag,when i enter a server(not all servers,just my clan one and some others) after joining a minute after i get this in the lagometer which freeze me complete for a second:

 

 

and also at certain time in our clan server,periodically,i get this one:

 

 

that happen periodically but that isnt just the problem here its the bad one,sometimes i get the disconnect message and lag out for 30 seconds and when im ready i see that i just died and respawn,what i mean its that seems like as i lagged out bad i get killed and than when im ready i respawned,so i need help guys i dont know what the heck is that,maybe some commands maybe a file,no idea,any help will be apreciate.

Find out if there is a specific, definate time interval between lag sessons after you first log in. If there is a definate interval (say every 3 minutes almost exactly), then compare it to the server's cvar/md5tool checking interval. I forget what the server command is for the interval.......I think it is pb_sv_sleep or something. If it matches up, then it is most likely pb causing problems.

 

Also, are you the only one that lags, or is it everyone on the server? If it is only you, then check simple things like your firewall if you are behind one (software one or router hardware one). It could be causing a delay in the communications between PB and you.

Having huge cvar and md5 check can make you lag each time pb is running them on you. Try to keep them lower than 15kb

k i checked and changed some commands,like:

 

pb_sv_sleep 100,had it 60

pb_sv_MaxDlRate 4,i had it 1

pb_sv_CvarFreq 2,had it 6

 

let see what happens and btw this is my pbsv.cfg fle for u guys to check it out and tell me if everything its ok there:

k im srry i skipped a lot but i think i had/have the same problem U are talking about

 

I would go into a server and Boom lagged out then back to normal then every few mins lagged for 30 secs then back to normal and it goes on and on- I would reinstall sof2 system restore the works- I have finaly came across My problem of it- I thought it was dude to steam and css-

 

When ever My printer is used On my computer I get the problem- Printer goes off during a game Im stuck with the lag ( now I keep printer unplugged) How I fix it-

 

System Restore- Then comp RS's then Defrag and It seemed to fix it

 

I am Not sure if that is Your problem Or if someone has helped U- which I think someone posted something

 

But just sharing my lag weird spike out problem

 

hope everything gets fixed Peace

yep im unplug my printer :D maybe its that,u never know,but mine wierd lag is just at the begining and than no more lag.

[AcE]

On the subject of weird lag can anyone explain this for me. This seems to happen every other day or so, I connect to a server enter the game lag for about 5secs and auto reconnect to the server and most of the time does the same thing as soon as i enter the game again. On the odd occasion this has happened it's happened during the game :angry:. I did post this on another forum a while ago but nobody had a clue and this issue stopped but now it's back and highly annoying :( any ideas ppl ?

[RodeoBob]

When a player connects, normally depending upon the servers config settings, the server goes through lots of things to get you cleared to play. The server could have CVAR and MD5Tool settings too stringent and it could lag out the client while it is checking for the those cvars/files. I would point to the servers PB configs for the cause of the problem.

Ok m8 cheers :)

Pointing to that Bob,i think thats the cause cause every server that i have noticed that has the cfg set to check for CVAR and MD5tool too,what i mean is that they are PB knoledge ppl. :D ;)

( just had the problem today- printer was used- Defrag and RS worked back to normal)

 

 

Well since i figured out why my game does this to me- have U figured out anything about yours? Or are u still having the same problems?

[.:BoS:.Gringo]

same problems and the printer is off,but im a try to unplug it and see.
