Trilanor Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Hey guys, First of all I want to thank the Ren-X creators for what they've built with Ren-X, it's really impressive and I love some enjoying Ren-X action from time to time! However, I'm expieriencing some wicked lag issues lately, probably especially since the last major update, the one when veterancy was introduced and stuff: I have low ping around 50, am playing on a EU server and my internet connection is normally flawless but I'm still having bad, recently really terrible lag. It's rather heavy lag spikes than continous lag, where other players run straight for 1 or 2 seconds before spawning somewhere else or I'm moved around several meters, around every 10 to 20 seconds. Now, do you guys know this issues? Or do you know any porrible solution? I really miss playing Ren-X, but I can't satisfyingly play a round with this horrible lag.

Schmitzenbergh Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Ok, lets start with the basic stuff first. Are you 100% sure the problem is lag as in "Online Lag"? Have you done any modification to your system recently that might as well be a culprit? (Driver updates or downgrades, hardware changes, newly installed software) It is quite odd that with such low pings you're experiencing so much lag. Do you have these lag spikes with other games as well? This way we can check if it's the game, the server or perhaps your system that's being weird.

Trilanor Posted September 9, 2016 Author Share Posted September 9, 2016 No, I haven't done anything like that. Nor do I have any issues with any other game, offline or online I will check and update my drivers tho, I don't think this could be the problem as they should be kinda actual, but I'll try it anyway. I would love to check if it's the server, but as you probably know, there's mostly only one filled with players. Also, the fact that hardly any other is experiencing the same and that the ping is so low wouldn't suggest it's the server, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fffreak9999 Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Hi Trilanor, the best thing to check would be your connection to some of the other EU servers, Constructive Tyranny and MPF-EU are good ones to test. See if the issue occurs on both servers, if it does, it is likely to be your side. If it only occurs on one server, then we can attempt to isolate the cause, but we have many players on CT who experience no issue in the slightest, so I am more inclined to believe the issue is your end.

nBab Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 It sounds like you're having packet loss. try command prompt -> "ping [serverip] -n 100" and see how much packet loss you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been playing again, I tried your command, nBab, but nothing happened... I typed it in F5...?

Sadly I haven't been able to play on another server than CT, no players. But tbh I also think it's a problem on my side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trilanor Posted September 28, 2016 Author Share Posted September 28, 2016 Can anyone explain the command against packet loss? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fffreak9999 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 It is either Stat FPS or Stats FPS in the F5 console Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He meant the command prompt in windows, follow this guide below: In windows open 'Task Manager', At the top of the 'Task Manager' window it should say 'File' Click on 'File' and select 'Run new task' A box should appear titled 'Create new task' Type in 'cmd' Press 'OK' You should now have a black window appear titled 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\cmd.exe' The third/last line should read 'C:\WINDOWS\system32>' With the window selected type in ping 31.186.251.169 -n 100 Post your results in here IF ALL ELSE FAILS: [DO THIS ONLY IF NOBODY HAS ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS] Additionally, this may make little sense BUT! " It's rather heavy lag spikes than continous lag, where other players run straight for 1 or 2 seconds before spawning somewhere else or I'm moved around several meters, around every 10 to 20 seconds. " Weirdly enough I think you may just need to reinstall your graphics drivers by uninstalling the drivers, restarting your PC, then reinstalling your graphics drivers. [Be sure to have the latest graphics drivers downloaded prior to doing this] Edited September 29, 2016 by Madkill40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternatively, look into improving that wireless you got. Edited January 15, 2017 by Madkill40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
