bump..

i want to see if i can fix the lag issue i have been getting..

we played a scrim last night on some random server and i remembered that i can finally change my rates

i went from a 40 ping to like 3-7ms (according to net graph), sometimes it would even read ZERO (???) and choke went away

you guys didnt accidentaly change the tick rate did you? haha

The rates are set in a mannner best for all players and best for the server, they have not changed in 6 months.

which is why i would like to see if tweaking will have any effect.

if my ping drops back down to what it was before when you guys first got the server, i would question whether the current rates are in fact &quot:optimal"

I believe as the rates are currently, there is room to change them client side. All the server has is a min/ max on the cmd and updaterate. ( unless I'm totally wrong)

The rates have not changed since we first got the server.

I had 60 ping 6 months ago, I had 60 ping last night. Sometimes people are so quick to blame the server for their shitty cable connection. We don't control the internet.

let me prove myself wrong.. by disabling the auto-rate command for 24 hours.

What the fuck are you talking about? What's there to disable, none of these cvars or parameters can be disabled, they always have a value.

Yes. I tell you what, I set the maxrate to 25000 and the max cmd to 100, this way you can run update rate 66 and cmd 90 or so, your update should be roughly 75% od cmd, and the max is 100 anwyay, this well exceeds what we need to be wide open on 32 players.
