sidekick007 Posted Friday at 10:21 AM Posted Friday at 10:21 AM I have been trying to play on Torchbearer and have been mapserved 4 consecutive times in about a 2.5 hour window between the hours of 1 to 3:20 PST.
Marine X Posted yesterday at 11:20 AM Posted yesterday at 11:20 AM Best first step is to reboot your Modem / Router and PC. Mapserves are usually caused by a connection interruption between you and the Servers in Canada. You can monitor the connection in-game using /netgraph. /netgraph number Allows the user to turn on and off a network monitoring graph. This graph will overlay on top of any other windows, and will always be in the lower right hand corner. 0 - Off 1 - Display a small netgraph 2 - Display a large netgraph. /netgraph by itself will return the current net_graph setting. Netgraph shows a visual representation of TCP/IP network data flow called "packets". A network packet is segment of a larger message after it has been divided into parts or units of data. Each packet is then sent across a network of communication lines and recombined on the other end. Interpreting the netgraph: Spike shape: The height of the bar representing server ping time in milliseconds. Short is good, long is bad. Green bars represent received packets. Short = normal/good Long = low bandwidth. Yellow bars represent retransmitted packets. Short = ISP/Router issues Red bars represent dropped packets Short = ISP/Router issues Blocks of Red = Interrupted communications " When it's too tough for everyone else, it's just right for me..."
