2142 "skating" issue

WISH · 05-16-2008, 01:23 AM

Hey All,

I remember there was a fix for this video issue when the game first came out but I can no longer find it (actually a friend of mine is having the issue).

Basically what happens is when trying to move it locks for a moment and then all of a sudden you it starts "skating". Nice smooth motion, with none of the normal walking/running video. My friend seems to remember there was a key that needed changed to resolve the issue, but cannot remember.

If anyone knows what I am talking about, your help is greatly appreciated.

Skating happens from your perspective when that other player (or high ping server you join) have players with really high pings.

I don't know about a "key" (key command?) that solves that. Sorry.

Thank-you for your response.

I understand the latency side of the skating, but this only happens to this person, whose ping is generally in the 40-80 range and happens on every server.

I know on Xbox Live there were people who would unplug and replug their internet cable and that would make it look like they were lagging around so no one could hit them. I don't think it's possible with PCs, but who knows. It could be something like that.
