Olykiller Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 hello guys like usual, ive some problems again et lagging rly bad, getting up to 800 ping and that 'connection interrupted' so first i thought it was some background proces that makes me lag but i saw ET is taking over 25% of CPU (ive new pc, i5 core) any ideas how to fix it? maybe it has to do with windows 7 ? (its rly shit btw) grtz Oly Quote
Administrators daredevil Posted October 4, 2011 Administrators Posted October 4, 2011 25% CPU is fine. Make sure you are not running 2 copies of ET or one is not hanged. Quote
Olykiller Posted October 4, 2011 Author Posted October 4, 2011 its rly not fine with the lag :/ had some problems with install but im pritty sure i only have 1 ET.exe gonna be hard to find whats causing it Quote
Achiyan Posted October 6, 2011 Posted October 6, 2011 ET is a really CPU intensive game for its age. what about your video card? my laptop has to be set on low settings to play without lag while my pc i have everything maxed the hell out Edit : well, maybe its my CPU and GPU combo in laptop, ionno.

Olykiller Posted October 6, 2011 Author Posted October 6, 2011 i use low graphics and ive a new pc so my vid card should be fine, cant be the problem Quote
Administrators daredevil Posted October 6, 2011 Administrators Posted October 6, 2011 2 things: 1. Run WinMTR 2. post your lagometer screenshots. I can help more. Quote

(its rly shit btw) grtz Oly You must not know much, because win7 is very good, aswell as i5 CPU (Depending on which model you got) Also, even if its a new cpu, video card CAN be the problem. It really depends on what video card you got, even if its new. Quote
Achiyan Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 oh man, now that i think about it, my laptop runs Win7 x64 and i get the hard lag and high ping. never really thought much of it. when it had Win Vista x64 game ran fine with most settings maxed and resolution at 1366x768...now i gotta run with minimum settings @ 800x600 and still lag/ping. is your Win7 x64 or x86? on x64 Vista (my pc) i got all maxed and play great even with a 176 kb/s connection...only problem i have is neighbors net Quote

Olykiller Posted October 11, 2011 Author Posted October 11, 2011 ok for some rly weird reason ive kinda good ping now. just some spikes this is rly weird, dont understand it..anyway i can play decent again Quote
BlackBull Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Problems of lag and ping them every so often I also have because of my connection that is not as it should be! Especially when we have two PCs connected to the internet I can virtually play (I mean if a PC is on youtube and on I try to play ET) I phoned my manager or often have access to the system even though I do not believe that much, okay we will see, good or bad I can play!
