Lag on Lan with just me?????

Sat May 24, 2003 2:51 pm by She-Devil

ok I finished the SP mode and decieded I would give MP a try so loaded the game up in Lan MP mode so it's just me playing, and everytime I get into any kind of battle I get red lag flashers!, now how can this be possible the packets arent going anywhere, Noone eles is playing it's just me on a closed lan running the server and game on the same machine.

Specs:
2ghz athalon
100 mbit net card
WINXP
1.5 gig memory
2x 100 gig HD

Any help would be appreciated would hate to stop playing because the lag is so bad
TIA

P.S.
has anyone come out with a mod so I can play a female???? massive Identity crisis playing a guy

I start the server, setup a password only game and then start the game, then search on lan sometimes I have to refresh the list for it to find me, also I am on cable that might have something to do with it, cable is one huge lan in it's self.
it is so odd because I have been playingon other MP INTERNET games with no lag but on my game on my server I lag to death

hello, i play FL on my dusty old c64

huahuahua

i mean, i play FL on my dusty old k6/2 400 [not SO much difference to my c64 anyway

in SP all works quite well
[music off, textures,objects,effects to the max all other minimum, resolution 800*600*16
looks a bit ugly,but with such a nice game, i tend to not think of it

in MP all comes to a grinding halt
even on my own local server [AFTER the v1.10 patch
the problem is on the pc of a friend [1400 mhz athlon the server crashes every 30 minutes so we play on my server [doesnt crash in hours but this way I can only fly around and trade
as soon as there is some fighting going on around me i have 2 maybe even 3 fps

and yes , it can be made this female-mod
BUT first the voice is a BIG problem
second the outfit, because i have heard that even when you change that old bastard trent to a nice-looking man-killing amazon, it reverts to the standard bullfrog-face in some cutscenes
and third the animations, i think only for the main charactrers there are quasi-lip-sync-animations, i now have a face that never moves the lips when talking
[NO its not the robot
