I just need the basics. Gonna recon over the holidays.
Can someone tell me what settings are ideal for me (150ms ping)
or even why.
I've had them all at different figures at different times.
snaps 40?
rate 25000?
maxpackets 72?
Just the basics plz . Anything that will definately help connection/gameplay.
cheers.

What type of internet do you have? Do a speed check at speedtest.net and post back here with the results.
If you are using broadband/cable/dsl, try these settings: /rate 25000, /cl_maxpackets 100, and maybe /snaps 40. The default for snaps is 20 if you need to switch back.

Yeh I'm on bband and speedtest just gave me a download speed of
18mb sec.
?That's from a British server though.. (my ping is 42).
Those settings you suggested are near enough what I used in the past..
That should be Ok. cheers.

Try this out... dependant on connection.
LAN

seta cl_packetdup "0"
* seta snaps "40"
seta rate "25000"
ADSL / Cable / Wireless
** seta cl_maxpackets "100"
seta cl_packetdup "1"
* seta snaps "40"
seta rate "25000"
ISDN Bonded
** seta cl_maxpackets "60"
seta cl_packetdup "1"
* seta snaps "40"
seta rate "(See Table Below)"
128000 BPS: seta rate "14000"
112000 BPS: seta rate "12250"
ISDN Single
** seta cl_maxpackets "60"
seta cl_packetdup "1"
* seta snaps "40"
seta rate "(See Table Below)"
64000 BPS: seta rate "7000"
56000 BPS: seta rate "6200"
I personally on crappy dsl run maxpackets at 100 and snaps at 30... the other thing to take into consideration is your rig. My pc is kind of old.. so the snaps 30 helps with system lag vs connection lag.
if your playing at bba the important thing is to just kill all your video and sound fx due to the high player volume.
