Hi Guys,
Hope you can help, i've been having a few problems with disconnects on lfs recently and can't work out the underlying cause - mainly 'cause i have no idea how lfs works.
The 'lagbar' in the bottom left: what does this measure the lag from and to? When i get disconnected the green bar (presumably mine) occasionally rises until i get disconnected. However, when this green bar is rising (and it rises for a good 5 seconds or so before disconnecting me) i still recieve all the car data and chat info etc without any lag what-so-ever (and indeed those around me recieve mine). So obviously i'm not lagging despite the lagbar indicating as much. This happens consitently on more than one server.
I've tried rebooting modem/ router/ PC and reinstalling lfs and even using QoS on my router to set the priority for the lfs ports to high.
Why would i timeout when i'm not lagging? Are these pings (for the lagbar) sent through on a different port to the game data?
Any ideas?
Thanks.
