disconnected from server
Hello guys!
I tryed to get help from z8 games directly but of course their support is so ****ty that they never gave me any answer other than ''re install the game'' so im here hoping to get any sort of help..
heres my probleme :
Very often when I try to join a game in crossfire it shows up the ''joining game room'' windows and it freezes there.. after a while it just says ''disconnected from server'' and the game closes.. When I finally get to play and join a room half the time at the end of the game when it shows how much exp and gp you won the game crashes and I dont get any exp or GP.. and once again after a while it says ''disconnected from server''... It happens even more often when the game im trying to join has some of my clan members in it wich make it impossible for me to play with my clan... So I gotta forget about scrimming because I know im never gonna get to connect...
I've re-installed the game twice and I even re-formated my computer and the probleme is still there.. Its not a probleme with my connection because I play other games like COD MW2, counter-strike source and league of legends with NO probleme AT ALL.. So I dont know wtf is up with that **** game but please someone help me!
thank you

that happens to me sometime (only like 2 a day ) but i think it could be your internet and or your computer that u need a better one.benoitlaveur wrote: »Nah its not my anti virus or my firewall... because I ran the game with both off and still does the same thing... + Im not even getting answer from z8 games... They say they answer ur question within 24 hours.. Its been 4 days now and no answer. -
I have a dual core 2.4 ghz 2 gb of ram and a nvidia 8800gt it should run crossfire without any probemes.. Plus I completely reformated it... And as I said I play counter strike source, call of duty modern warfare 2 and League of legends with not probleme at all.. So i doubt its my internet

I can't offer any advice on this but this has been happening alot more to myself and my clan members since the new patch, before the patch I hardly used to get any disconnecting. Now it's everyday, yesterday I logged in then got disconnected before even entering a room 5 times in a row.
I've double checked all my settings, I don't use any firewall, anti-virus or resident malware programs. My router is still the same with the ports open and my IP is in the DMZ.
So there has definately been some kind of connection change happen with this patch, even if others don't have any problems. If I find any kind of fix I will post it asap. -
Update. Ok, I remembered a trick when I used to have Windows Vista but I couldn't remember the command. I know this was for Vista but I have found this also applies to Windows 7 and it has helped some people with connection issues and also in reducing lag.
Check it out here > http://www.kombitz.com/2007/02/14/vista-auto-tuning/
I am testing this now to see if it helps. Stay tuned.

OK, well I've been playing alot today and so far I haven't been disconnected once. So maybe my above solution is helping. Might not work for everyone but could be worth a try if disconnecting is bad for you.
Haven't noticed a change in ping/lag, but then I don't really lag much anyway.
I'll post the details here's so people might understand it more.
Windows Vista and 7 has a feature called 'Receive Window Auto-Tuning'. What it does is to adjust the receive windows size continually based upon the changing network conditions. So depending on what your connection is doing it can limit your connection and preventing things from downloading correctly. It can cause network time-outs and problems for certain applications, web pages, msn, and online gaming, amoung other things.
The default setting is normal, which mean windows does what it thinks is best, but this isn't always best for your system.
You can change this setting to disabled, so it isn't continually changing your network speed.
1) Open Command prompt in administrator mode. (Start Menu, find Command Prompt, right click it and 'Run as administrator')
2) type in netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
3) Press Enter.
Note: You can change it back to normal again by typing netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=normal. You may want to know this if it doesn't help or causes other problems.
If anyone finds this helps please leave feedback here. Thank you. -

Heres the problem
I found out from another site that the connection to the internet is the problem, like here it is. Lets say your connection is bad then so is the lag, but this lag is like 5000 and you have no clue its coming, so what really happening is that your connection goes dead for like three seconds and it disconnects you, this also happens to me a lot! -
