Is it going to be tweaked at all? I'm being booted from every server I'm playing on after like 20 seconds, and I suspect it's aCI going after me for what it sees as high ping, even though I'm always below 80 (almost anyway).

>aCI

>any relation to ping

 

um, no, nothing built-in does anything relating to ping

And are you sure it's ping related?

I've seen several people having an issue where they join some server (any server at all) and after a few seconds every character stops in the map, the player keeps moving for a few more seconds and then gets ejected from the server (server connection time out, or something). Is it what happens to you?

I got a friend of mine here in the village that has that problem. I went there, synched windows time, verified the game cache, unninstalled the anti-virus, disabled the firewall... and nothing worked. I'm yet to find what is causing that (that computer is coming here in about 24h or so to format, so we have about that to try any debug on that error).

Sorry, NTA, I thought I remembered seeing someone else get booted by aCI for high ping one time, thought it was happening to me. =P Soz

 

And Paul, yes that is exactly what's happening. Yeah I don't have any AV software installed on my computer, and its firewall is dormant as well. I find it weird because I was able to join servers back when we did the launch event and even within the last several days, but now all weekend it's impossible to find a stable connection in any server I visit. I'll try and recheck my connection again.

I doubt the CI kicks for high ping, unless you got an unstable connection and your CI packets gets dropped all the time. it's most likely a ping kick plugin with a fake kick message.

It's not anything related with plugins. That friend of mine has that problem in every server, even when he was playing on teknogods.

It's some other one of those IW5 absurd things like that one with windows time.

The guy didn't drop the computer here to format yet. I'm taking the delay to think of what should I test before formatting it.

Ok, that guy just dropped his computer here. I just entered the game normally and it's working without a problem.

So, the problem is with the router.

If your router has that option, just enable and set the DMZ host on your computer's local IP

Ok, that guy just dropped his computer here.

I don't think that's quite healthy.

It's quite healthy for old computers, actually (unless you want to use the hammer instead of just dropping it)

As for leaving the computer in my hands for me to mess with it... well... that's another issue
