yo guys, im new in the Forum but not in the game..
i play 1 year+ and i got some problems that starrted when u installed the 29 build.
first, i LAG badly.. and i dont know what to do.
the second is, i cant load maps and stuff, or it stucks on 0 % or it stucks on 3 %. thats driving me crazyyyy.
sorry for my bad english, and thx for help.
Serve..

Welcome to the forums! I don't think your bad English will be a problem though...
Well... If you have lag, it must be because you have a bad internet connection. Try raising the speed of your internet.
Also, I think that's messing with your ability to... wait, do you have trouble LOADING or DOWNLOADING maps?
-
when theres a new map, u need to load it, but i guess i mean DOWNLOAD
-
I have the same problem whith my sis comp and i have window vista, maybe you have it? when the map is loading. that dont move :/ the name of the map still here whith black window on low part.
-
i dont have windows vista.. i have XP..

Isn't that funny how I'm the only person here so far who has an avatar?

If it's downloading, it shows a progress bar. When It's loading, it doesn't.

LOL excrement strikes again!

That might work.

I prefer peanut butter. :) Or were you being serious?
Ic3 i download ur files, i opend it on winRAR and i got the list of the maps, now what should i do?
Paste them into:
C:\Games\Paintball2\pball\maps
That's the default folder for when you install Paintball2. It may be different for you, but it will be in \pball\maps.
-
LOL @ the peanut butter Mitchell. But anyway, Serve, does the game list your connection speed while downloading (i assume its downloading because there is no % status when a pre-downloaded map loads) the games? Like is it "x mb/s" or "x kb/s"? If its kb/s it would mean its connection, but if the speed is good it would be the game itself is freezing, right (someone with a little more knowledge than i)? As for the lagging i got the same problem so cant help ya there. And thanks for the map pack link ic3.
-
its steel dont work.
when i log in, i fail to login to conosole, is that matter or some thing?
-
Do you always have that problem or is this just recent?
-
ONLY WHEN I INSTALLED THE 29 BUILD...
-
Did you install the build update? Or just reinstall the build altogether?
-
i remmber i did installed the update, i try now agine and tell u what happen
-
i installed the update and its steel dont work =[
-
When you fire the game up and it tells you you cant log you on, make sure your username is correct. Then backspace your password out of the box and re-enter it.
-
i did that, steel dont work -.-
-
Can you log on with the same user/pass on the DPlogin section of the website?
-
yep
-
It shoooould work then. Re-create your profile in the game, make sure both usernames match, and enter the password without the auto-signin/remember pass.
-
Are you using any colors on your name? If so try to make your name all white. But why would a map not load because of your name?..
-
No, juicey, this dont have anything to do with the map problem. This is a... separate issue.
-
OKKKK but either way I still gave him an idea. Most people get kicked off the server because they aren't logged in correctly, or too much colors on the name, and that's probably his problem.
-
but i dont get kicked, its just wont load the freaking mapppp
-
BTW, i can get into maps that i load before this problem.
i cant get only into the new maps...
-
If you haven't already tried, try uninstalling and reinstalling the game. 8 times out of 10 this fixes most errors that occur.
-
i already tried that.
gues im hopeless..
any one can help me T.T?
-
Make a list of all your problems again...
- - Maps will load, but not DOWNload (Sticks at 3%)
- - Lagging
- -
Can't log on dplogin, works on site however - - Anything else?
And fixes:
- Connection/router speed- Installing update- Remaking account on game and entering password manually- Uninstalling and reinstalling the game
Anyone else got anything?
-
Try using an older version for now:
ftp://otb-server.de/pub/Game/Alte%20Versionen/paintball2_build028_update_pretest1.exe
See if that fixes anything.
-
Ace, i can log to dplogin AND to console, i solve this problem.
the lagging is not so bad, and its not allways...
only the download/loading problems.

Well lag is generated based on how close you are to the server and how close you are to your internet connection. If you're playing on your own server and your internet connection is 100%, then that should have a ping of... 17 I think?
But if you have something like 25% internet connection and the server you are playing on is the opposite of where you live on the Earth, then that ping's going to be pretty high.
The higher the ping, the higher the lag, so try playing on a server that has a low ping.
