IMPORTANT: Please edit your prefs....

[Mr Phobik]

UPDATE MARCH 19TH/2011: The IP for my master has changed. If you have never set up my master on your game then please visit my original thread here for 1st time instructions. This same info below can be found in the original thread as well. I made a new thread so people see it.

---------------------------------

STEP 1)
Please change [game/client/prefs.cs]:
IF YOU'RE ON VISTA/7, CLICK THE COMPATIBILITY BUTTON AT THE TOP:

Code: Select all

$pref::Master1 = "2:65.39.236.105:28001";

TO

Code: Select all

$pref::Master1 = "2:phobiks.dyndns.org:28001";

CONTINUE TO STEP 2:

STEP 2)
It seems A LOT of players still haven't increased their TT Packet Rates. This will decrease the lag for yourself and the server in general. You will notice a huge decrease in lag when applying these changes and a huge drop in loading time. It is imperative all players do the following!:

In the same file you added my master [game/client/prefs.cs] - find the following 3 lines:

Code: Select all

$pref::Net::PacketRateToClient = "10";
$pref::Net::PacketRateToServer = "32";
$pref::Net::PacketSize = "200";

Change the values to the following for each line:

Code: Select all

$pref::Net::PacketRateToClient = "32";
$pref::Net::PacketRateToServer = "32";
$pref::Net::PacketSize = "450";

DELETE THE PREFS.CS.DSO!
Alternately, you can just download the prefs.cs for your OS below and replace your old prefs.cs with the following: (This will set the master and packet rates)

Windows: http://www.mediafire.com/?jgr1y0oqy8e4cbj
If below Vista/7 : Place in game/client, and delete the prefs.cs.dso
If on Vista/7 : Navigate to game/client, then click compatibility files (if there is) and place it there, then delete the prefs.cs.dso. Refer to the image below for the compatibility files button.


Mac: http://www.mediafire.com/?k1midieii1thh
Right click TT application , select show package contents.
Navigate to Contents/Resources/game/client, and place the file here. Then delete the prefs.cs.dso

THIS WAY IF MY MASTERS IP CHANGES, YOU WONT HAVE TO CHANGE ANYTHING. IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY POINT TO THE NEW IP. THIS WILL MAKE THINGS MUCH EASIER FOR ME (AND YOURSELF).

I'm not sure how LGM's patch works, but the mediafire d/l and prefs-replacing worked splendidly! Can't wait to be even more lag-less! Thanks pho!

Is this just a re-post of what you already had us do a month ago? Or is this different? Please clarify in your top post so we keep confusion to a minimum.

[Mr Phobik]

I edited the first post. Hopefully this clears things up.

You are now required to make the changes or you will get no servers found.

[LGM]

Hosters!

Don't forget to make the changes on your server copies, too.

The server list looks pretty short. I know I hadn't made the edits on my server copies yet... make sure you do.
