Originally had this running on an Athlon 800/Windows 98se and had no problems. Â Upgraded the computer and now having tons of warping in multiplayer. Â
When I hosted no one would have problems, ran perfectly. Â Now that I'm on this new system people see warping, folks running in place, and extreme lag (5+ seconds before a guy dies) when things look ok on the menu (ping about 300-400ms).
Any reason this is going on? Â This is basically the only game the clan plays anymore and unfortunate that we can't get it running. Â Single player runs fine as does the other games I have installed (FS2002, etc). Â
XP 1800
512MB Crucial pc2100 (2x256)
Dragon +
Geforce 3 Ti200
431 Power supply
XP pro
So there is no problem hardware wise that would be causing a problem (I wouldn't think), and everything else runs fine. Â I've changed compatibility mode to 98se and still the same results. Â The firewall is turned off. Â The 20% reserve has also been disabled. Â
I can give a full system rundown if you folks want it. Â It's connected to another pc (nic to nic) but even unplugged and not seeing anything else we have the same problem. Â
Nothing has changed except for the rig and o/s. Â Any ideas? Â It's weird cause pings are the same as they were, just tons of warping now. Â
Thanks, I'm completely out of ideas.
Edit: Btw I'm on cable, the pings are high due to the location of the other folks, it's always been like this and not the cause of the warping all of a sudden.
