force clientsettings (rate interp usw)

[derWalter]

i hope you build in a system to force clientsettings, the client cant change

i dont know, is there the possibility to give a cvar two values?

force client, cvar name: fc

fc cl_updaterate 100
fc cl_cmdrate 100
fc rate 30000
...
..
.

and so on.


i know @source there is zblock for

[haGisson]

when they do it right, there should be no need for zblock

[zeng]

I like this idea =)

[tiger]

I think it's already included with the new netcode (not sure though).

[rezOnance]

Hope this is included tbh =]

[paradox]

source engine already has:
-sv_maxrate, sv_minrate
-sv_maxupdaterate, sv_minupdaterate
-sv_maxcmdrate, sv_mincmdrate

[cirNe]

i dont want this included or any rate commands forced. i prefer using net_graph and changing my rates to best suit online play or be able to change it from server to server. for 1.6 on an average server in online play i prefer using 80/80/15000.

Look at #20


we coded our own netcode system (if you've ever played CPMA and experienced arQon's excellent netcode, you'll be happy to hear that it's a modified version of that). With our new netcode, you're not even able to touch or change console commands such as cl_interp, cl_interpolate. The only variable involved is a custom command called cl_interp_ratio, defaulted to 1, which will only do anything if you have absurdly high ping.

We feel very, very good about our netcode. In our playtests, some players have 20 ping, and others have 170, but it feels quite good even if you have 170 ping vs. someone who has 20.

[haGisson]

wait for the 1.04 release, then talk about interpolate problems etc.

[sevoii]

I'm all against this, there was already a thread posted about this. Use the search tool.

what about:
LOCK choosen settings (e.g. cl_cmdrate ...etc (NOT chrosshair settings))
when pressing ready or when the match is LIVE++1+++è1

[Barbapapa]

You can do this already in source:

sv_minrate 25000
sv_maxrate 25000

sv_mincmdrate 100
sv_maxcmdrate 100

And you have them forced basically :).

[derWalter]

they are in since 1.6 :P

but they force them only on connect, players could change them with the userconfig, to whatever they want.

[haGisson]

put config.cfg on read only and the values won't be forced -.-

[adz]

i thought there is no more value with '25000', because of the new net code update on steam where it only has the max rate 30000?

fc rate 30000
fc cl_cmdrate 100
fc cl_updaterate 100

[derWalter]

yeah in source its 30000 in goldsource its 25000.

in the new netcode i dont know...

[yuri]

btw gold source has max rate capped at 20 000 => beyond this value it has no effect
