and cmdrate/updaterate limits are there so u wont lag the shit out of everyone with ur lag compensation
lol :D Quoted from Koeitje
There's nothing wrong with interp ratio afaik. All it does is multiply the set interp? Basically all it did for you was save you from your own bad interp settings.
It is the method by which it does it that matters. Quoted from smziii
YEAH I WANNA PLAY WITH RATE 7500 and 25 cmd and updaterate!!!!!
Clientside interpolation has no effect on the rest of the server, cmdrate/updaterate do (yes, even updaterate). Completely different. Quoted from Fox
interp_ratio is used to determine which packets should be used when calculating the interpolation from one packet to the next. When set to 2, every second packet is used. The advantage of this is that if somehow a packet is lost, the next one can be used instead of the second next one. It's like a backup packet. So I have been wondering why it has been limited and so far none of your answers actually makes sense. :<
That's because nobody in this thread appears to understand how cl_interp_ratio works, or what it does (hi AnimaL :D). I agree that cl_interp_ratio should have any value >0 allowed, it would be beneficial for some. It would also stop all the crap using cl_interp. In ideal situations (no choke/loss), the following settings are ideal: cl_cmdrate 66 cl_interp 0 cl_interp_ratio 1 cl_updaterate 66 Interpolation is done on the client, so doing the following should benefit some with no effect to other players (hi AnimaL, again :D) cl_cmdrate 66 cl_interp 0 cl_interp_ratio 2 cl_updaterate 66 Bear in mind that you will never reach cl_interp 0. cl_interp just sets the threshold for cl_interp_ratio / cl_updaterate. As such, setting a threshold of 0 means you will always get the lowest available interpolation. I see no reason not to allow this.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=18834&post=342258 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 18:41:03 +0200 Reply by Fox https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-18834/page-1/?recent=343121#post=342242 Quoted from AnimaL

Correct me if I am wrong, but netsettings are there so they can be adapted to your connection. Like I said, my friend could play fine (and he still can on publics etc.), none of the teams we played against ever complained, but now since its a minimum of 40, he lags like hell. He notices the lag, and everybody else now sees him lagging, too. Basically these rules have crippled net settings optimization and kicked out players with bad internet connections.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=18834&post=342242 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 18:22:27 +0200 Reply by Koeitje https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-18834/page-1/?recent=343121#post=342122 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=18834&post=342122 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 12:34:29 +0200 Reply by waebi https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-18834/page-1/?recent=343121#post=342114 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=18834&post=342114 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 12:01:25 +0200 Reply by Specter91 https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-18834/page-1/?recent=343121#post=342060 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=18834&post=342060 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 07:17:56 +0200 Reply by derippez https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-18834/page-1/?recent=343121#post=342039 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=18834&post=342039 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 03:29:59 +0200 Reply by CursedGhost https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-18834/page-1/?recent=343121#post=342025 so u wont lag the shit out of everyone with ur lag compensation That doesn't make any sense on so many levels...]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=18834&post=342025 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 02:17:30 +0200 Reply by Animal https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-18834/page-1/?recent=343121#post=342024 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=18834&post=342024 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 02:16:35 +0200 Created by Fox https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/support/topic-18834/page-1/?recent=343121#post=342022 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=support&topic=18834&post=342022 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 01:54:42 +0200
