Nickname plays with custom skins all the time and if they didn’t work on our server he’d have *edited*ed at me at me about it by now. We allow custom skins but not custom materials and effects because of the abusive and cheat potential. I don’t see that changing anytime soon.
As for interp you’ll have to talk with Lemm because that’s a server setting but in all honesty if your rates are where they’re supposed to be then YOU shouldn’t get any lag. It’s others that should.
If you’re getting choke then that’s likely the cause of any bullet registration issues you’re having and unless you’ve tried it with Vsync on I’m not going to start monkeying with the server. If you want our help you need to at least try what we tell you.
Not complaining on effects, understandable when you can get effects to show a big arrow to where the bombs is.
Now I am following your tips, only thing I cant do is run a big lan cable to my room, so i switched to my wusb300n with xp drivers (most stable and best) and made sure it got the right drivers (took some time to *edited* slap vista not to autoinstall drivers) then I cleared up stuff on the router to avoid some lag spikes, then i followed #13 suggestion disabling the autoscan feature on Vista, but im still left with horrible ping registration on the server, however I looked around other servers and found no problem with bullet reg, though there might be little choke, its not as bad as the average i get on WCU, along im not the only one to have Bullet reg problem.
But this interp thingy does bring back “past” forum posts about bad bullet reg.
Maybe Lemm could allow some testing with cl_interp, maybe leaving it for one day changeable on client side from 0.010 to 0.030 with cl_interpratio 1?
