i want to tell you how it was on my training :D
but you have the same name ;D
I already sent two mails to PB regarding this issue. This has resulted in me getting a special punkbuster file, which doesn't make me lag anymore. I can't recall its exact name but it's just like all the other pb files, pb(randomnumbers).dll
I'm willing to share this file with all of you guys, but it cost me some effort to get it. The first 10 persons to reply to me will get the file in a PM!
8 people remaining!
I noticed that taking a pbss is causing a freeze for a sec or 2 on my pc ( bind x rcon pb_sv_getss pbslot ), but I also have this with other pbss settings, like the one overdrive used from me in his topic about it, so if its the GV/CB scripts or just pbss which suck, I don't know, but I do know that I never had this problem until some months ago :[
well, for the one who pushes that bind-button there might be a slight lag, but normaly for the other clients there should not be because:
Your ET-client is telling the PB-server to take screenshots (pb_Sv_getSS), then the PB-server tells the players PB-clients to take a screenshot and send it back.
PB tells your ET-client that "Hey I took a screenshot from these players: 1, 2, 3 etc" to kind of make sure no problems occured. While your ET-client communicates with the PB-server there might be some kind of lag so you better do it while re-spawning or use autoscreenshots.
This scenario is more plausible then fact of how it works, but it still gives an idea why there might be a slight lag.
I've read some stuff that autoss might cause lag when the interval is too short (which is/was too short in the CB/GV configs, we editted it on the gtv matchservers) because it's making the server write screenies to the hdd all the time, I never had that before though.
PB aint a problem
After a while i found out it was that minimz0r (made by Lightning I think).
Im using q3e minimizer now, its lagfree ^^
2) thats not a mod, those are just modified settings, most of them are the same as before (before = pbbans settings) but some changed; the pbss settings and some cvar interval settings, imo those settings aren't causing lag..
butttt, maybe its possible that the (imo) _huge_ cvar and md5 checks are causing lags, but i'm not sure about this
Been whining to donex and killerboy every day for the last week. Donex agreed on the 450x150 pixel pbss. He's trying to get into contact with the GV admin who can change the pbss size.
Should be fixed within one week. or i'll go to spain to give
:)
no do your job
