These rates helped significantly, but there's still gaps + spikes when switching between players--they're just a little smaller now. When I was testing the new rates, TF2 crashed with no errors, and just seemed to disappear right from under my mouse. But I suppose that's another issue for another time.
My rates were: rate 40000 cl_cmdrate 33 cl_updaterate 33 cl_interp 0.10000 Using 66 instead of 33 is the closest thing to a proper fix I've seen yet! Is this something that can be implemented on weaker client systems without worry? Our servers don't have replay enabled for the same performance reasons. Not ideal, but nothing ever is. I don't recall many people really complaining about it. Thanks for the help, Jake On 1/6/2013 10:55 AM, dan wrote: > On 05/01/2013 19:43, Jake Forrester wrote: >> Thanks for the info.
