constant freezing

ttriten82
in Support
I have had this problem before and for some reaon it went away without me doing anything and now it is back. It used to be that I would freez for maby 2 seconds then go away and only happen maby 8 times in a game. Now that it is back the freeze time varys from a 2 to 4 seconds and it seams to happen every 20 to 30 seconds. I do have a couple of UE's and have them screen caped but dont know if they are the cause because I had one of the UE's when the game was freezing and when it was not freezing. I installed the game from my T2 disk dont know if that makes a difference, I just dont understand why the freezing would stop then come back.

    Hi
    Is there anything else running when t2 is running?

    You might have installed a bad install. DL from TribesNext and check the md5 sum to make sure its a 'perfect' copy. THen install.

    Also, if you have a lot of scripts that process stuff (ei: when you kill someone, join a server, or something that constantly loops) can make the game slow down and jitter.

    Sorry that I have not replied in some time but I will try downloading but I don't know what the md5 is

    I've had a similar problem. It doesn't freeze for long, only about 1 second. It happens constantly. The only thing anyone has been able to bring it down to is maybe lag. I play wirelessly and pretty far from the router. I have noticed similar effects in other games, like Team Fortress 2. If you are playing wirelessly then maybe that is the issue. Try plugging your computer in directly to the router/modem and see if it stops.

    Not on wireless and hopefully wont ever have to thanks though.

    Also having constant freezing moments after joining into a game.

    What video card setups do you guys run?

    What video card setups do you guys run?

    Using a GeForce GTX 260

    Can you copy your clientprefs.cs file and post it? What os are you using? Do you have things like autohide task bar enabled? That may help.

    Also, here are some settings to try in the nvidia control panel wether you run with global settings or with program settings for each game:
    select anisotropic filtering and set it at 16
    override antialiasing mode
    antialiasing to either 2 or 4
    set antialiasing transparency to supersampling
    set antialiasing gamma correction to on
    cuda gpus to none
    multidisplay performance/mixed gpu to single display performance mode
    set threaded optimisation to off
    negative LOD bias to clamp
    any texture filtering should do ok

    I find little image quality enhancement between 2x and 4x antialiasing but 4x takes much more vid card memory bandwidth than 2x so 4x is of little use to me

    I also find quaility and high quality texture filtering to offer very little difference as to image quality and performance though I have tested both in benchmarks and seen 1000 less points in 3dmark when set to high quality over just quality

    just some settings to try

    you may have a heat issue, or some other issue unrelated to any of these settings but if you have issues when joining the card shouldnt be hot enough to lock up

    Settings changed lasted a little longer, almost a minute of gameplay before freezing prefs attached.
