ping spikes with mqwcl

[old.EmryS]

ive been using mqwcl 0.94c and 0.95, connecting to bw ffa from nildram isp - ive noticed that every few minutes i get a horrible spike which lasts about 30 seconds which i dont get when playing q3 or rtcw (both connecting from nildram again)

initially i thought it might be a problem with the bw qizmo so i started connecting directly to maxwell but the problem is still there - im considering going back to lego qw - any thoughts?

yo,

wild guess, but maybe ur using rate 10000 and forgetting compression?

(this only applies if ur not broadband)

im using ezcomp and rate 6700 - i dont get this problem with normal glqw or even with lego qw just mqwcl

well,
the only other thing I can think of is that Mqwcl has no fps cap (125 in later versions?) which could cause lag. Try capping ur fps to 72 or something a little higher.

( rate 10000 and ezcomp3 is better )
