v1.1 Hit detection once more.

[K4on]

we all know the bf2 netsettings are quite old and not optimized for 100 players.






the ridiculous stuff mostly happens if the server-client connection has some serious packet loss or bad netsettings on clientside. it sometimes happen for me on our euro servers, but obviously not as often as you NA/SA guys describe it.

maybe you should tweak your netsettings abit and adjust it to your servers you play on?
PR usersettings.con can be found here: Battlefield 2\mods\pr\settings

useful how to's:
BF2 Tweaking - GC_Wiki

takes a bit until you found the best settings for yourself (some people say it doesnt work anymore since 1.4/1.5) but if it helped/works anyway, please let us know!

cheers

i remember that, after the 1.3 the punk buster now do the lag compensation automatically.

[K4on]

Punkbuster is deactived on probably all servers since PR 1.0, so you could go with that config for example:
SettingsManager.boolSet GSClPunkBuster 0, but don't know if that's a criterion?
But yeah, apart of the net settings I'm honestly out of ideas here.

[[R-DEV]Mats391]

These are the formulas the BF2 HitFixer used for the variables K4on posted:

Based off EA's default settings, there is a simple ratio to the three settings
    * The Latency Compensation is set to your ping / 1000
    * The Extrapolation is set to your (5.5 * Ping) + 489)
    * The Interpolation is set to your ping (no changes)

Not sure if they help.

i typed that on my console in game and nothing happens, and i go Alt+tab and kill the Punkbuster A process and i did not find the B, i played a full round with this in the Free candy van server with no problems.

[K4on]

Before you launch PR, try do change this in your \mods\pr\settings\Usersettings.con
This is my current config (my ping ~45ms [+ 20ms for the values], similar calculated to what mats said above):

rem
rem Settingsfile automatically saved by bf2
rem
SettingsManager.boolSet GSClPunkBuster 0
SettingsManager.floatSet GSDefaultLatencyCompensation 0.065000
SettingsManager.boolSet GSExtrapolateFrame 0
SettingsManager.U32Set GSExtrapolationTime 750
SettingsManager.U32Set GSInterpolationTime 65
SettingsManager.U32Set GSPerfLogAtPlayerCount 99
SettingsManager.stringSet GSPlayerName "K4on"
SettingsManager.boolSet GSShowNetGraph 0
SettingsManager.boolSet GSUseObjectCache 1

but yeah, as described here for me everything is fine when I play on euro servers, so I don't know if changing those settings still makes a difference or not.

Someone could check that by taking insane values and see if he still hits stuff.

its seems clear to me that the server does not have PB on by default, what did you guys did after 1.2 or 1.1 to consider that?

[K4on]

Apart of serveral issues with PRs own 100p code and Punkbuster, PB only supported up to 64 players/server.
Hence why it was removed with 1.0 release IIRC.

In the first part of the shooting, on my screen, I hit ALL the shots, including i see blood flown in ALL the shots. There even thinking it was some new Cheat of invincibility...

After 1 minute have happened this, i was examining if have a problem with the server.

Punkbuster has been disabled... That means the game is running with no anti-cheating software...?
