Sorry if there is another post on this somwhere else

whats ur upload?

whats ur average fps?



im guessing ur uplaod is similar to mine as ur UK

i use

cl_rate 25000
cl_cmdrate 80
cl_updaterate 70


have ur updaterate similar to ur average fps

try those vaulesm ur cl_rate wont make much difference tbh, most servers only allow 20k but set to 25k anyway

change ur other rates in small amounts ifur getting choke etc

I would recommend the default setting for u

[Exclamatio]

the default settings are ball bustingly low

[TopDog]

I upload at around 20kbps and download at about 250kbps

[TopDog]

got them at 25000 80 80

i remmeber i used to use 25000 101 101 in 1.6 and they seemed good, ill keep messing around till i find the right ones...

Default rates are terrible. I'd only advise people on 56K to use them.
I hate it when people abuse rates and purposly set them low.

and whats ur average fps?

[TopDog]

Average fps is 100

sometimes it goes to 80 but usually 100 or above.

nice man nice

i can get high fps on some maps but it wil drop on others so mine is lower

set ur cl_updaterate to about 90

What would the rate be for a 4.5mb downstream and 380kb upstream connection?

(Road Runner hates upload...)

Yeah, in dx7 mode you would pull even more :]

[deathryuu]

how about for a 2.5mbit cable connection(350 down/30 - 45 up)?
fps is 25 - 40.
