Rates Discussion

[khaotik]

YOu want to see Lagg, but NO lag? go intoa server, type cl_smooth 0
Everyone will stat jerking arund like puppets due to the engine no smoothing eye predictions.

What you are seeing as 'lag' is Latency 'lag'
Lower the smoothtime, the less the game smooths eye prediction.
ANd yes, it really is in you head.
Example-> I can enter your server and have rates
Rate0 Cl_cmdrate 0
Cll_updaterate 0
Cl_interp 0....... Without using any odd characters, like - + or _
But I wont be lagging. Which is impossible, since no rates= No client connected.



Another thing to note.
THe NEW orangebox update, makes the old !rate command pointless.
Since interp for servers is NO LONGER THE SAME AS IT WAS BEFORE.

if the rates are forced.... then why exactly can someone lagging with incorrect rates change to correct rates and it fixes the lag???? just curious
