Lag w/ LAN when I host...
When my friend and I deathmatch via LAN and when I host, there is HUGE lag when we play Q3A with me hosting.
Strangely, this does not happen at all when we play Q2. I doubt my system is to blame, though I suspect that the G400-TV, with only 16 MB of memory, is the source of the bottleneck. BTW, his system is comparable to mine. He's got an Athlon 500 and uses the Diamond V770U video card.
Specs:
Asus K7M
Athlon 650
128 MB RAM
Win 98 SE
Current Matrox drivers (DirectX, PowerDesk, etc.)
Also, I could never get the TurboGL patch to work. Strangely, when I uninstalled it, everything worked fine in Q3 and Q2 - GL is pretty and quite speedy.
Thoughts? Thanks.
