Hello first time poster here

I installed Vista Ultimate (32 bit) on my computer. I built my own computer from parts. Dual Core 2.4 (overclocked to 3.0) 4gigs ram and GeForce 9600 GT 512 ram (overclocked). I can run just about anything I have normally at full detail even the COD4 i just bought with no problems. But when I try to play Renegade I get warping over and over. The more going on the more people warp. This seems like it would be a router/internet/server issue. BUT I have another computer that runs just fine with Renegade. So it is not any other those options. All i can guess is either drivers or settings. I have installed all the latest drivers for all my hardware with no luck. Setting I have tried have it run on just 1 Core..same. I tried closign EVERYTHING else still same. I tried window and full mode...same. Turned Windows firewall off...same. I am out of ideas HELP PLEASE

thanks

You could try disabling network auto-tuning in Vista, I know it improves RDP performance a LOT, so it might help with Renegade lag too.

Info: http://www.kombitz.com/2007/02/14/vista-auto-tuning/

How to turn it off;
Quote:

1. Open up an elevated command prompt.
2. Enter the following command to disable auto-tuning
netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled





It's meant to provide some level of QoS for networking, but generally it just seems to slow everything down.

Could u, in-game, do F8 -> FPS and tell us how your FPS, SFP, ping and kbps changes over time? Also give us a cvlue about the amount of players in the game.

Also try doing F8 -> nur 30 so your net update rate is at the maximum.

In "my information", set your bandwith to LAN/T1 so you're sure Renegade doesn't put your bandwith to 56k.

150-250 fps --> could u go in the renegade options -> BHS -> put vertical sync on?

Is SFPS changing a lot? With only 15 players, it should be more or less a stable 59. Though that would be a server side issue.

Do you have a stable 59 FPS now? Or do it still vary?

Do you have a flatscreen? Does your 2nd computer have a CRT screen?

No. Things like Virtual PC 2007 don't provide DirectX9 type hardware to the OS you install on the virtual machine.


Renguard is a wonderful initiative

If the FPS constantly changes from 59 to 55 to 52 to 53 to 58 to 54 to ... that could explain the lag spikes; For the rest, i'm a bit out of ideas :-S. "Warping" is typically a bandwith problem. Maybe you could switch the port of your router and/or some cables as test? It's surprising, however, that other games wouldn't have the same problem then.
