  5. [CLOSED]Microphone being stupid

    in Closed Tickets

    Posted

    To confirm for you @Grechenko 1st MRB; does your microphone work in any other applications at this time? E.G. Discord?

     

    Additionally can you confirm if this is a built in Microphone (e.g. Laptop mic) or if it is an additional peripheral to your computer (e.g. headset/tabletop mic)?

     

    If this is a peripheral microphone does the issue persist on multiple devices or only on your main computer?

     

    What troubleshooting has been attempted to date?

  7. Touchpad not working after Windows update

    Brief Description of Issue: Touchpad not working after updates

    ***Medical Supply Staff ONLY Below this line***
    Current Status:
    Resolved

    Main Technician: J. Flores

    Supporting Technician: C. Marsden

     

    Can you confirm if the touchpad is reporting in your device manager after the updates or if it is no longer showing up there either?

     

    There are two easy ways to get to the device manager:

    Right-Click your start icon and then select Device Manager (keyboard hotkey sequence is Win+X and then M), or to open the start menu and type in "Device Manager" and open the app from there. The hard way is to go to Control Panel and dive down to the Device Manager, don't do that, it's not 2003 lol.

     

    I know that on my Acer gaming laptop I have a hotkey combination (Fn+F7) to disable the touchpad on the fly, can you check to see if your F# keys show any icons that look like a pointing hand superimposed on a rectangle on it? If there is one try pressing that with the Fn key held down and test for functionality.

     

    When was the last time you know the touchpad was fully functional? Do you have a restore point on within the OS for that date or prior?

  8. cl_interp - setting, color

    in Day of Defeat: Source Questions

    Posted

    Generally speaking you should not be using a static cl_interp value. If adjusting from the default 100ms you should be basing it off the difference between your ping, and the average ping of the opposing team.

     

    If your ping is lower than the opposition, your cl_interp value should be your ping+10% average ping of opposing team.

     

    If your ping is higher than the opposition, your cl_interp value should be the average ping of the opposing team+10% of your ping.

     

    The reason for this is in the name of the command you are running, cl_interp = Client Interpretation. Which relates to specifically the Interpretation of where the playermodel should be drawn on your screen compared to reported location of the hitbox. With lower lerp settings you can actually introduce problems of hardware lag due to the time it takes the signal to go from GPU to screen + refresh rate being higher than the lerp in ms (for those homies obsessed with running the lowest possible lerp that also have ungodly low ping) as the computer will try and draw the character model at the exact location last reported in the server connection.

     

    With a more variable use of this setting you allow for more cushion and accurate representation of where the player is, and how the model is drawn. All of this is based on the communication delay between you and the server, and should be interpreted based on that delay. You have 60ms ping, opposing player has 130 ms ping, account for about 70-75ms lerp and now your screen draws where the player is more accurately and with better reliability. Same scenario, but you are accounting for 33ms lerp, now you are attempting to account for 2 player locations per response back from the server to you, and 4 responses back from your opponent. Of course the player model on your screen is not where the hitbox is, odds are it's about 5 pixels behind where it's currently being drawn on your screen because the server still hasn't confirmed your clients new "prediction" of where the player will be, thus the shot doesn't register and you die.

     

    The default lerp is the default for a reason. Because after all is taken into account on a full server, odds are a properly configured cl_interp will be within 25ms of 100 in either direction (that's right! Sometimes it's more beneficial to have a higher lerp). I personally usually play with default cl_interp unless playing on a low population server with a lot of users with lower ping times, then I will go through and make the adjustments based on the math above to make sure that the reverse lag armor is neutralized.

  11. Looking For Advice & Recommendations!

    in Hardware Guides & Maintenance Questions

    First suggestion would be to at least double your RAM (make sure you get the same speed of RAM you already have as it will use the slowest clock speed of the RAM installed). For handling an upgraded GPU you will likely need a beefier power supply (recommend at least 450W. As for Graphics cards I run an NVIDIA GTX960 and get consistent framerate at customiezed Mid and High graphics settings at 1080P 60Hz in HLL. Framerate sits between 50 and "80 FPS" (60Hz monitor only can draw 60FPS hence the quotes).

  12. President Trump and the Mob

    in Politics?

    1. I do not know what kind of rules this forum has. There is a lot of mass censorship these days so I do not know what you censor on your forums. If you want to discuss this with me further, you can add me on steam, and we can discuss it in a lot of detail. That includes anyone else on this forum. 
    2. Interesting story, there is a member of your community, who had me added on steam, and he was discussing Trump with me. After I corrected a lot of his false information about Trump, and he ran out of responses back to me, he just said "you are a racist" (the usual response), ran away from the conversation, and blocked me. It is really sad to see people this closed-minded who cannot be willing to get challenged. 
    3. I will just say that there is a tremendous amount of false information by the media around Trump and this incident. I will not say more because I am worried this forum will censor me (sad days we are living in). So all I am going to say is, there is a lot of false information about Trump, and blaming it on him, and what he is and is not responsible for. 
    4. Back in June, there was a lot of protests by a certain group (which I will not say the name of because of censorship reasons). During those months many people died. That group was a wing of the Dem party. The people of the Dem party did not condemn the violence. I seen main media platforms have professors on their show that outright argued on live TV that "property damage is not violence". I seen anchors on live TV media argue that "who says that protests need to be peaceful?". I seen Dem party members continually dodge the question of violence being done by this group. The media kept on saying how the protests were "mostly peaceful" despite burning buildings, and dead people, ect, and they kept on telling how how the group is not responsible for this. But now, they did a complete 180 degree turn, and everything they been saying for months is not the opposite. This is propaganda at its finest. 

    I disagree with this statement. This, and I am not exaggerating, is the end of America. The reason is very simple. Never before in American history have I heard party members calling for censorship laws and "truth committees" that you have in authoritarian countries. Some American people dislike Trump so much that they rather see the most sacred Amendment, the first Amendment, be completely destroyed, and side with the party of Censorship and the party that openly called for laws for the persecution of dissidents, than to see Trump be re-elected. It is not about Trump being re-elected or not that is the problem. It is the problem that the Dem party turned in the party of pro-censorship, and they will go after their opponents from this day forward.

    Here are the exact steps that will happen in the days that follow. First, Trump will be banned from twitter. Second, Dem party will call for the persecution of Trump and attempt to imprison him. Third, the Party will eliminate the Electoral College, eliminate the Supreme Court, and possibly eliminate the Senate (they all openly mentioned this many times).  Fourth, the Party will possibly add new states to the US which will definitely vote in favor of their Party. Fifth, the Party will pass "hate speech laws" which, in actuality, will persecute anyone who speaks up against the party. Sixth, the Party will seek to pass laws controlling information on the internet and what people get to see. Seventh, the Party will pass "anti hate laws" which will put people in prison which are dissents of their cause.  Eigth, the Party will entirely abolish the US Constitution under the pretense that it is a "racist document", the Bill of Rights will be removed, and they will install a "Social Constitution" which will only be filled with their Party values. 

     

    None of this is going to happen in just 2 years, or 4 years, this will happen possibly over 10 to 20 years. But it will happen because from this point one it will be one-Party one-Rule coming forward, permanently. 

     

    I hope I am wrong. I hope that in a few years we can all read this post and say "Wow, you are so wrong, you cannot possibly have been any wronger". I pray to Science that I am wrong. But all my observations lead to this conclusion. 

     

    Another possibility is that the United States will secede. Once it becomes clear that the Party is a permanent Party and they are in favor of all those policies that I described above, then some of the non-cult states will secede. The question is whether the Party will go to war with those states, that issue I do not have a prediction on. 

    I mean you are right in that Trump did not call for the storming of the capitol building and that it is being misrepresented in the media about the extremists who took it onto themselves to attempt to "protest" in such a way. Just as the actions of smaller satellites of dissidents around the black lives matter protests in the summer where misrepresented. This is simply a matter of course with the American News Media, regardless of which side's puppet news station you are watching. For example, I live in Portland Oregon. Was there violence and property destruction? Yes, several of the "protests" this summer degraded into Riots. But only after the Policing agencies escalated force against what was at the time peaceful protests. After tear gas and less than leathal rounds were fired into the crowd, the crowds they responded with violence and property damage. When these action stopped being taken against protestors  said protestors stopped taking actions against the police, and stopped destroying property. The Federal Marshall's then came in, and began instigating the crowds again with beatings of protestors and the return of tear gas, which resulted in an escalation from the protestors yet again. Then the Local and State Police informed the Federal Marshall's that they were to desist and once they did the property damage and violence from the protestors.

     

    Where the protestors right to escalate and retaliate? No, of course not. Were the "riots" misrepresented in Right Wing media? Yes as half the story was portrayed as it painted a better picture for their target demographic. Where the actions of the extremist elements undersold and minimized by left wing media? Yes as half that story was portrayed to again enure the best picture being painted for their target demographic. capitalism isn't about what is true, or right for you, or right for me, or right for everyone. It is about WHAT SELLS and the allmighty Dollar. Ask anyone runnin that hustle in the hood, or puttin the screws in to build the houses we live in or offices we work in, or the people negotiating the deals in the board room that decide what work goes where and who stays employed and who doesn't. They all do it for one reason, it's all about the Benjamins baby.

     

    As for your concerns of us censoring you, Don't spew bigoted rhetoric and voice your opinion in a respectable and intelligible manner as you have done and you are fine. You are allowed to have whatever your opinion you like, you can share it if you like, but we will not tolerate bigotry and discrimination within our community. Think of it the way the Military was before Obama. We won't ask if you don't tell.

    Strandx2,Sturm,stug,Donner Extended,schlag,dijon,foy,kalt45,hells highway,anemia

     

    If we were to run this as the rotation we would be looking at 250 minutes which is 4 hours. Let's go ahead and see about adding 2 more maps and then we will have a 5 hour FNFN set up and therefore Strand cannot loop and all you masochist fuckers out there can have strand in an event lol.

     

    Alternatively more votes/nominations if we end up over 12 maps long we will start going with maps that have multiples getting bumped off. Let's keep it going and see if any of our BAR friends have maps they would like to see on the event list yerrrrr

    If the issue comes back an alternate fix is to delete the bandage.mp3 file from within the users download files. The server will update the file when they rejoin which forces the game to redo how it pulls that information from the client.
