Lags!!!
Hi,
yesterday I was playing FL on a server, where I had a ping of about 20ms. When trying to start some PvP, I realized that the game was lagging pretty much. Every 5-10 seconds the screen froze for about 1-2 seconds. The same happened to most of the other players.
When trying to find the problem, we had a look at the background programs that were running on our Windows systems. I realized that my Trillian messenger was running - it was connected to AIM, ICQ and MSN. After stopping Trillian, the lags were gone. I don't know if this was just a conincidence, but running background apps that frequently create Internet traffic might be the problem of some of the server lags...
Has anybody experienced something similar?
Bye,
