Stutter

[Animl-AW]

If the drops are coincident that would seem to imply a single piece of hardware. If they are not then it could be something in the way Frontier is handling the sessions or something locally triggering it still.

We’ve determined the timing starts when the player enters the MA. They probably won’t match time stamps.. still worth testing just in case.

Thank you Shane for trying to keep this bunch of cats that we are on track hehe

I can confirm that the 10 min timer starts when you land in the tower in the MA after logging in, and it's your own timer, not a server-wide one, each player will be on their own 10 min schedule, thiis would actually be more evidence that it's to do with each player's "session" or connection to the game server I think

I'm going to start agitating for FSO to be held in SEA2, as we've (9GIAP) lost 2 airframes to stutter when landing in the last 2 frames, and there's no need for it at all.

We’ve determined the timing starts when the player enters the MA.

I've timed it on numerous occasions, 10 mins from entry, regardless of the minute mark.  3:01 3:11 3:21    7:47 7:57 8:07  11:24 11:34 11:44  you get the idea.

I do still infrequently (less than once a week maybe) get a connection burp, which displays a much different spike and visual pattern.

heh, herding cats... yeah, I get there are other issues, but they aren't MINE!

I was referring to a TCP session but certainly could be broader. I haven't read everything but since Frontier was mentioned (and I know HT uses it) does this 10 minute drop apply to everyone or just those who do or don't use Frontier as their own ISP? I use Frontier and could not duplicate the slow download of the large install file some were having trouble with.

Frontier may treat traffic from other sources differently than it treats internal traffic. Of course I'm not sure a client using a Frontier connection won't route through other networks before coming back to Frontier. Since I'm near Dallas and use Frontier it's likely my traffic stays within the Frontier owned network.

Well, Verizon now.

Other trunk systems are used by many isp. They don’t own or manage every one the signal passes through. You can even be rerouted through another one if it reaches capacity or has tech issues. The way I remember understanding

Frontier doesn’t even exist up here that I know of. So comcast is used to stream it to frontier for me. I don’t hit frontier until it hits tx, the way I read it. And then it coughs blood in tracert. Drastic change. From 45 to 225 and a lot of timeouts.

The 10 min setting may actually be in the game itself.

I hope to make FSO and try DX11 there, then try the other events arenas.

It could be server it could be game. We don’t know what we don’t know. HT COULD ckear up some of these questions. It’s important to include his knowledge.

I like the bigger MFDs on the side in addition to on the lower touch monitor. Think I have a handle on the viewports and Helios replication. Anyone needs help/advice lemme know. After turning off vsync I notice no impact on perfomance.
