You should post this on the CFG topic. Theory did fine magic with mine

im not sure if its cfg or not so thats why i posted it here

I didn't think mine was CFG either, but it turned out to be

One thing, how big is your log file? You could try moving it to other folder so game creates new one. I had such problem with log that had around 200k lines.

 

If you don't have any packet loss(or like 1%) feel free to set cl_packetdup "0"

Fps can be decreased by pb spikes -> pb_sleep "500" and pb_lan "1" of course if you have pb enabled.

Other than that you have mostly lowest settings avaliable so if you still have fps lags, sorry mate...

 

r_primitives "0" has most fps for you? If not try 1 or 2, each time do vid_restart to check changes.

 

Edit: Did you use winmtr to check if everything is fine with network connection?

[daredevil]

You can delete PB folder and PB services. We don't use PB. We have our own AC.

 

Your config is huge filled with junk cvars which don't do much and some are invalid. Never use seta. Stick with "set"

That is what theory took out of mine. It was easy to bloated

Hmm, I don't have pb folder myself but some people reported that they couldn't connect to some FA servers cause of "disabled punkbuster". Can't recall who but I know it took place.

[-=HipKat=-]

Jay 2 doesn't use pb? I still play other servers that do, so it's necessary

[Aniky]

Jay 2 doesn't use pb? I still play other servers that do, so it's necessary

 

None of FA servers have PB enabled since long time, we have own anti cheat for that.

[Ann!b@l]

I even uninstalled pb on my pc months ago (don't do that if you play other games, might be required for the latters) since I only play on ET. So, no pb files\folder nor pb services running in background.. Only my etkey in ETmain folder.

[daredevil]

Jay 2 doesn't use pb? I still play other servers that do, so it's necessary

 

We even also auto generate etkey if it's missing AFAIK. So basically PB is not needed.

 

What you can do is kill/stop PB services when you join our servers. When you join others just enable it back. PB basically doesn't do any shit and none of the hacks after 2009 or so where detected anyways. Shit load of cheats work with PB.

I still don't, and never have understood cheating on a public server. MAYBE in competitive play, I Can see it, not agree with it.

 

WHy is it that after 2 years of not playing with PB on F/A servers and XP not saving, Redbaird had me pb_enable to start saving XP?  I added it to my CFG, actually, although my XP is reset before exec'ng my CFG......
