Lag

[Kyonye]

one thing i truly hate is lag spikes. they bother me more then Nazi's (ok, maybe not). they're still annoying though.

Wanna trade? LOL...If you ran BF1942 on one comp and on a comp with the same specs with PS online would PS run better? If so, then I'll be happy as a clam.(BTW, we need a happy clam smiley)

I have not run PS on my comp, it was a 2.2ghz out in SD

I hope m,y 1 GHz can chug along for the ride. My video card is good enough easily but my processor may be a littled taxed. Although there's no frame rate lag noticeable enough on BF1942 or any game I've played.

I agree Sputty.
It seems that I have the minimum requirements. I am too broke to buy another computer what with the wife and kid constantly draining my gaming funds. Which is why I am so glad to see the whole resource thing. It isn't caus eI don't think that I can handle myself in a firefight, I am sure I can do as well as most of you (nontwitch gamers that is.) It is that my computer will be chugging like a freshman in college. So I get to do somehting that helps the teams and I get to see some action. All I will have to do is drive my ANT out of the Galaxy, to the silo, then run around for a bit.
Of course I will have the setings down as much as possible. But I will be running away from times when there are more then 30 people on my screen at one time.

Thanks for the info on the EAX though. I didn't think of it.
Good GOD! Marrow wind chugs occasionally... That is not a good sign.

E&B lagged for me aswell. Not comp either. Net lag..God I hate that game....But I really hope I can make the quality of hte grpahics at lest a little better than BF1942 with no major lag. I don't see whyuy not but it may just be other things that vcause lag like the vastness and whatever. WEll, if I really need to upgrade I can upt my planned upgrade a couple moths earlier but I wouldn't like to

Just a quick note:

Battlefield 1942
[47.4 MB]
Version: 1.3


NETWORK/SERVER FIXES

-Optimization of server priorities to improve Net Performance
-Smoother object movements
-Text strings are sent to the server instead of ascii, resulting in smoother text entry.
-No Lag prediction if soldier is sitting in vehicle. This fixes the problem of pilots getting shot out of the cockpit when in a plane.

CLIENT FIXES

#Sound improvements and optimizations
-New and improved Sounds in 1st person view for the following weapons:

*Bar 1918
*Thompson
*MG42
*Browning

-New streamed sound implementation increases performance and decreases memory usage.
-Problems with SoundBlaster Live on WinXP and Win2000 systems are solved

# Graphical Improvements

They left out of the release notes a debug statement that was left in that lets you wallhack

hmm... i had been getting like a steady 110-120 fps in t2, but recently it has just gone to crap, i'll have to flip off EAX and see if that helps.
