I don’t think uuuzz is still active.

Is BF1942 Plus still recommended for Client install?
Can I roll back to previous version or is it better to reinstall Vanilla and patch?

Thanks

I used Moon for testing as it's local to me and thus 10ms to 30ms is obvious and easy to detect.

Good PING:

High PING:

I ran a high rate ICMP with payload for 20 minutes.  It's very consistent.
9 ms min / 11 ms average / 16 ms max.

uuuz I need help with a strange issue I've been experiencing since 1.34. Upgrade was released.

The presumably fixed ping in scoreboard all of a sudden jumped up from 10-12ms to 30ms.  The NetGraph tools and TCPdump of the UDP stream indicate that jitter increased significantly affecting hit detection and ability to lead moving targets etc.

However this issue is not network related.  As part of the troubleshooting I setup a fresh game install on a different PC and joining the same server one PC plays good, while another experiences the issue.  From console ICMP to the server RTT is always good regardless of game state.

The ping does not change for the duration of the round, once joined it is consistent 10 or 30.  It changes only on map change at the end of the round.  At this time a new UDP session is created, thus perhaps the negotiation of the session causes a problem.

I can post the data I collected and I have a TCPdump where I joined a round a minute before end and had a good ping, but next map the issue occured.  I'll post other data I collected.  UDP packets don't really provide latency information and I am not familiar with the Server - Client communication to troubleshoot on my own.

Hope you can help.

I have an additional joystick automation script.  It's using joy2key but feel free to add it to your autohotkey config.

Enable POV directional switch on the joystick to look left/right and above you, like modern games.

Pointing the switch in one of the 4 directions (Left / Right / Up / Down), will execute 2 actions in sequence.
1. Press and hold mouse look trigger. (Until you release the POV switch)
2. Move the mouse cursor in the corresponding direction. 
*Be advised that mouse look disables all other controls. Thus use it to take a quick look, find your prey then release to engage.

To use it as is, go to oldversion website and download the old good joy2key version (3.7.4) is what I use.
Create a new profile, then go to joy2key folder and edit the .cfg file you just made to paste in these settings to your POV buttons.

[Joystick 1]
......
POV1-1=2,   0,-100,   0, 0, 1, 0,  0
POV1-2=2, 100,   0,   0, 0, 1, 0,  0
POV1-3=2,   0, 100,   0, 0, 1, 0,  0
POV1-4=2,-100,   0,   0, 0, 1, 0,  0

*My mouse look toggle button in game is set to middle mouse click.  Either update the game or update the first button in joy2key.
