[UPD] slac screenshot test #2

There's a small update to slac.. it is taking screenshots again, but it attempts to send them at moments when it shouldn't cause problems if a small lag happens.

Those who had problems during the previous test, please test again and give some feedback. :)

UPDATE: another small update.. optimized it a little bit, please check again if you had problems.. and tell me how it feels now COMPARED TO LAST NIGHT

ALSO, the screenshots will probably be of lower quality for now while I'm testing things out.

no lags, works fine :]
nice ads on web -.-

I put the update when I wrote this journal. :)
Parent
less lag but i feel it...this time on FPS side. (my Feedback)
what problems exactly with FPS? all the time, randomly, at some certain moments?
Parent
not always, happen that from 125/124 FPS i took 60, 2 FPS for 1 sec not a bad thing tbh but sometimes happen that i'm shooting and this FPS lag cause some trouble with my mouse :) Cant move it fluent. I just played and i feel it like every 50secs (around this interval)...my connection works fine not lag..atleast i dont see net lag.
Parent
now i cant join in any Slac server...saying awaiting Auth . We are in 5 in ts, 5 got the same problem
Parent
I had probs with ping 2 hours ago, but now its working fair
yay :{D

:3
why u always activate those screenshots when i'm NOT playing et!?
hope u will keep it activated for a while
haha, +1 :D
Parent
yea I also experienced a very unstable ping some hours ago, whether it was the YCN host, or it was SLAP.
if it was few hours ago, nothing to do with slac changes :)
Parent
it was about 2 - 2 1/2 hours ago, so it wasnt that long ago ^^
Parent
I put the update the moment I wrote this journal :)
Parent
ah k, so it was the YCN host server :p
Parent
i have to change my feedback, i reboot the pc i downloaded updates of slac, and now when the match starts i go 999 all the time for 2 mins...plus horrible fps lag during the net lag in the match, randomly

i just made the model smaller and covered up the spot where he used to be, took 1 minute total.
Parent
idd, realy strange knee ... he must has a boner in his pants xD
Parent
why is the nametag so far from the character? :(
Parent
low--- Photoshop skill :)
Parent
was actually already like that on the original -.-
Parent
Nais work, still waiting for the Linux client tho :oD

3-4 times in 1 map -.-
GOOD I DIDNT PLAY
lost to humM3L because of the lags, thx
50 dmg, hardly managed XD
Parent
well, the lags were really bad...
Parent
zajebiste
It gives me 1 sec lag. my ET freezes. 2/512 connection





And its very annoying

image: lagrv
when does it happen?
Parent
when it takes the shot. I can notice it. last time when you had this test i didnt notice anything
Parent
Slotu http://www.crossfire.nu/?x=user&mode=view&id=26366 who posted this laggometer first should look when he made the SS in the file properties and tell you the exact time and who all was playing in this match.

So u can compare his time with the SS time of the given player names on SLAC SS page.
Parent
felt a bit shaky :s
awesome !
had no probs during the last 1h or so, if it took any
e: it did, all fine :)
working fine same as last time.
had some lag this time , didnt really notice it last time because i was watching some ettv match but this time i had big lag , my ping was jumpy and it annoyed me , was thinking it might have been my connection but then i saw this post and checked the screens and everything came together :)
works perfect
I was playing a war earlier with ~150 ping and occasionally I spiked to 200 or more/froze for a second. I can only recall onetime it happened 4 second before respawn and completely locked up for like 2 seconds, nearly missed st >_<
managed to get a black screenshot only :(
what if slac catches u in console typing in ref/rcon? :P
what kind of answer you're expecting?

lol
Parent
One like yours ! .. haha, walked straight into my trap ":D"
Parent
what if binding it?
Parent
+1 every good ref/admin should have binded it

its even a rule for our refs/admins on our server
Parent
Your ref/rcon will be public.

Just ask chaplja to remove the pic
Parent
Because chaplja removing the screenshot will definitely be less work than changing the ref / rcon
Parent
Shouldn't happen to make ref/rcon's public.

Invalid argument.

gtfo.
Parent
ET.exe terminated in the middle of match without displaying any error message

According to teammates I was kicked for "some SLAC shit"

and so on...now it's like the first time about slac screens for me: ET is unplayable. Ofc if u will not fix, disable or dunno this thing i cant play cause my mouse is freezing now and i have to wait 2 mins to play...I will rage quit from ET.
nothing to do with slac
Parent
nope...scanned yesterday night and nothing noticed. My pc is fucking clean. Got this when SLAC make screenshots. U have to know that italians, most of them, got low upstream.
Parent
i dont rly need a format...my PC works fine, ET also got stable 125 FPS just when this updates starts of SLAC (screenshots) i got this shit..this is the second time.
Parent
YEAH LAGGED ALSO ON BIO
Parent
I know what you're doing Chapstick. You might fool everyone here but you haven't fooled me. When the time is right, i will bring you down.
Didn't experience any lag whatsoever.
I got some minor lags like freeze but it was more about the server so it's ok !
Connection freeze here!
After update i have like 60 fps, mouse freezes every minute, at least stable ping.
on grush at 3o3 (not even 5o5) i had 30 fps all the time, disable this screenshot system, because its the reason at all. I played all day without any problems..
999 ingame... and normal ping on TS3 sometimes..
no kind of laggz for me
thanks for info, i disable wallhack + hud hack
makes me lag hard

very noticable
uh oh fucking laggy lets all cry and give negative feedback so bad lag lololol
no lags at all for me :)
GONNA CHECK MY HACK
WELL, i had yesterday the same fucking lags... 800- 900 ping, when the screenies happend...
I was speccing a game last night and it killed my local NIC three or four times in a row, especially near the end of a round. The server was reporting that SLAC was outdated.
Had same yesterday, it could be Windows 7 problem. Happens often when I upload something and watch youtube or some other multiple tasks with uploading/downloading.

Here's a fix I found here:
(Local Area Connection > Properties > Configure > Advanced > set Task Offload value off)
Parent
I've never had this before on Windows 7. I even rebooted after the first two times and the problem still occurred even though I was only running SLAC and ET.

I'll give your solution a try though when it happens again. Thanks!
Parent
can you also test again? I've changed some things
Parent
I had like 6 times per war, ping jumps to 600, but nevermind I don't think that it is related to SLAC.
I havent noticed anylags today, fps are stable and so is ping
GJ :)
havent notice anything... COS THERES NO CLIENT FOR LINUX!!!
:( poor Niko
Parent
UPDATE: less lag but still got it durin the match with high ping and same FPS drop = freezing ET
