2009-03-02 snapshot

[jlv]

I assume it's going over 500 right?

Does it also go negative?

What is the lowest fps you're getting?

[Matheus#112]

my offset varies between 40 and 0.
and ping between 100 and 200


SLOW, FAST, SLOW, FAST, SLOW ......

Can help me someone ??

[BenDexter]

mine also speed's up and slow's down...i'm getting a constant 60fps

[jlv]

Here's a small change. This has a progressive speedup/slowdown to sync clocks instead of having ranges where different rates cut in. I'm still not sure what's going on here since a time offset between 0 and 40 should never trigger double or half speed. The rapid catchup or slowdown are supposed to kick in at over 500 or under -39 respectively.

Let me know if it's better or worse.

Hey JLV, while playing earlier today I noticed the same thing.. That all of a sudden my bike would go into warp speed mode to catch up.. I haven't had any problems online until today? I played with the new snap last night on some SX with you and some others and had no problems.. Just today..

So after I read others were having the same issue, i checked my offset.. And indeed, it spikes well into the thousands when this warp speed occurs.. Im not totally convinced its this new snapshot, because I played last night and it was fine.. Just some insight from my experience with this problem.

Hey JLV, could we please have the skins display as a list, instead of having to scroll through them? Similar to the way the track menu works. My skins collection is growing too big to find the skin I want. Thanks

seems a little better not 100 percent yet mine gose negitive some times but only for a sec and i never get more the 100 offset and i always git 30-40fps

mi=y off set ping is -10-100 it jumps a lot, my ping is 300-400 which all so jumps a lot, with the old snapshot i never had this problem, but now i find online terrible because of this.. i hope you can fix this soon jlv thanks

[jlv]

Did you usually have a high offset with the old snapshot?

Also, no one is seeing negative offsets any worse than -10 or so right?

[yomo]

I occasionally have offsets of -7 ish but i havn't noticed an issue. I did have it ONCE very slightly last night playing with firthy but it just slowed down for a moment

[Joe]

my ping never stays the same and neither does my off set is that normal ?

[jlv]

If you have a stable ping the offset should go down to 7 pretty quickly and stay there plus or minus 7-8 ms. When your ping changes it should gradually adjust your clock to get back in sync. How much does your ping vary?

[Joe]

100ms at the most

[DJ99X]

So what is causing these problems? Is it internet or computer related? I'm not having any trouble, and my ping is 250ms, whereis, for example, Wakestyle, he has a ping of 50ms, but is having the slow/fast problem as well.

[Mittocs]

I think its computer related, The only time i ever experienced that was when i windowed out and came back into game and it was a little to much for my computer and it did that speed up thing to catch back up, I was like woaaahh??
