The biggest process I found that creates the saw tooth is Windows Imagine acquition. More then likely if u have a scanner or all in one printer, this service will be on and what it does is constanly monitor your USB port for the scanner.

You guys figured it out already. Everyones connection was bad last night. I was losing planes 1 vs 1, with a ping time of 27ms. I think it is Al Gore's problem since he invented the internet. One think is for sure, nothing to do with coad or anything HT related.

~~Net lag~~

Remember last big mission? More then 40 planes you could see?

(I dont KNOW if limit still exists, but i dont think so.)

I know it was more than 40 planes 5 years ago.

It was the 64 plane limit at that time. I suspect it went UP with the release of AH2 but I can't prove it.

Its NOT easy to test with any certainty, and if I was HT, I wouldn't touch this thread.

Good luck finding an answer.

Oh, was it 64? I thought I remembered 40.

Why wouldn't you touch this thread? It seems like a fairly reasonable question to ask, and I know the dissapearing plane phenomenon wasn't just happening to me. Plus it only happened when I was right near tank town, and there were a bunch of guys there.

Seemed reasonable to connect the two.

I see some unexplainable stuff & have a netstatus that's rock steady & plenty of PC for the job *see below* w/ a DSL connection. ( I go into msconfig & disable everything in the services/boot/startup that I don't need & restart before I play AH )

Athlon 64 4000+
7900GTX video card
2 GiGs of patriot dual channel memory
etc.-etc.-etc.

True, the last few days "felt" strange. I loose sight of opponents a lot more, they seem to "vanish" and reappear..... but as long as i dont have any hard facts that proove its a bug and/or a net lag issue.... its probably just me and my usual suckage gone worse.

Blame Vonage and the weekends!

Well, speaking for myself I only saw it happen in areas were there were A LOT of people (i.e. tons of tanks sitting on the ground).

Just flying around normally I didn't experience anything out of the ordinary.

Urchin

Because he has nothing to gain & potentially lots to lose.

I mean really, if you were HT, would you explain how the guts work?

Wow. I thought it was just me.

BTW. Wasnt net status either. I checked
