If I do those test alone, the server should rox for those who have nice pings usually and for 1v1 or 2v2 games but I think this could cause some pl in case of 4v4 games.
I would like to fix a date with you all connected to the server with friends of yours by telling them it will be for a 15 minutes of reboot then a frag party =)
Some things I will ear for sure if the test is released: cool like this! keep this parameters my ping is 8!!!
maybe after the test I will fix params and you will "only" get 40 pings but I wish this will provide a fluid gameplay and reducing laggs.
I think that everybody agree that it's better to get 40 of ping without any pl (do not always trust the pl figures on your client side also, I mean you could have a ping of 12, no pl noted in the scoreboard but sometime your weapon is not fireing: this is a pl so...)
If we are not 8 players at this date I'll bring friends of mine to complete the tests via irc
Who will be available monday 03 of spetember do do this at 21:00?
*Try to remember those commands for this night:
>netspeed 5000
(value between 2000 and 15000)
>stat net
to display the server configuration (netspeed, tickrate)
>stat FPS
to display the current FPS
>stat none
to clear the "stat net" command displays
I will prepare differents ut2004.ini server parameters files to change it as fast as possible.
I willl inject 1 file then reboot the serv, wait 1 minute for pings then I'll take a screenshot of your ping and note pl for players who get a bit. Then we will play and you will give me a note for your gameplay fluidity between 0 to 10 (if you noticed that some of your shock or rocket shots are not fireing, please directly note this params from 0 to 5 only.) we will play 2 minutes and I will pause the game to ask you to test another client side netpseed, so everybody will use the TAB touch to enter the command: >netspeed (value I will give you)
meeting point on SoA TS at 20H50:
