How does the "start to play Bf42-Question" affect the Skill? I started since it came out and i'm still a lozr...
And about Category ... Sounds for me like "Tu tuut..."
I vote to fight it out in a "AdminOnlyBattle", so we/you can discuss this in a more intim, but neutral atmosphere.
...
...
I thought this day is the moment to shake hands...

> Iwo Ima is a vulcan island. Mount suribachi was pervade with 18 km tunnels.
> Iwo Jima was the only battle in pacific war, where no civilians were involved.
> After a 3 day Bombardement, the allies were landing under heavyerst counterattacks by japanese soldiers.
I think the following happend also on Iwo Jima. But i'm not 100% sure if it was on Iwo Jima.
> As the this battle was over, the allies thought, that the island would be clean. Before nightfall, some parts of the troups had to hand out all ammo, because of many casualties in the weeks before in night. To many accidents by drunken soldiers. They shot each other or themself. Only the nightwatch and MP had a few ammo.
> In the break of dawn, the Japanese, which were hiding in the tunnels under Mount Suribachi started a massive Counterattack with all they had, including own live. The Allies were completly surprised and not ready for a fight. (Some parts of the troups had no ammo, only MP and nightwatch). The only way to fight was man vs. man or later by using a weapon from dead enemys.
After some of these attacks on that morning, the allies reorganised themself and for the next ~30 days they had to clean out every hole and every bunker one by one.
26000 american casualties 6800 dead
From 20'000 japanese soldiers only ~200 survived.

So far i can say something about frank, that i saw him allways acting as a good admin. He takes time to observe disrupting players, he warns them twice, and if this doesn't help, he kick them. As it should be.
Why all start to roll this out... not everybody has a every day a good day and nobody is perfect. (Ok, except Timmos, he is allways nice to everybody
).
Could you start now to make love, not war?
Try to have a view from the other side, sleep over that, the next day you forgive each other and shake your hands.
After that, you can wash each others head in the battlefield.
How about Monday... only on Simple Fra... Clash of the Admins...

On AX is mostly laggy. But today, between 03.00 and 04.40, it was for me earthquakelike. But in my case it's anyway suspicious. I guess , my Computer can't handle my farts.

The other point is...
If the Known players acting things like this, they are a bad example for all the newcomers...

Lan is allways better, but anyway... it's possible to get a stable WLAN. I wrote a part of it and some more to another thread.

any suggestion for a wireless connection? My ping is low but jumps from 40 to 140 mostly in crowd situations. I must have big packet loss since i cant even make side hits easilly. If i could reduce the packet loss that would be nice already...
* Here is a good explanation and i think it could be very usefull for WLAN Users.
Different WLAN Modes have different standallone Channels. But it's in german.)

http://www.administrator.de/wissen/frei … 25360.html
In short...
> For 11g use 1, 5, 9 or 13
> For 11n use 3 or 11
I guess, it's better to use only 20Mhz if you have in mixed-mode and 20/40Mhz problems. Remind that two different standards, (if you have two machines, one with 11g and one with 11n) could conduct instabilities too, because it's jumping between the modes. In this case it's better to set manually a 11g only or 11n only mode.
The 5Ghz Mode can be more stable, but on the other side, it can be disturbed disturbed by weatherradarsystems.
With these tools you can watch, which channels are used in you area, (incl. Neighborhood). After the analyze choose an empty one, prefered are StandalloneChannels.

If you are sure, you have no virus, then you could try TCP Optimizer http://www.speedguide.net/files/TCPOptimizer.exe
If you are not sure... use Malwarebytes to test it.
Askyour neighbores about the inet, if it's there better, you search the failure in da house.
Between, ADWCleaner is also very usefull ...

Any chance to see what program is using my connection at a certain moment?
I just played some mins on the server and realised that i got massive ping jumps between 100 up to 700 for a short time and then it's normal and yet jumpng again...
It's possible to play but they occur like all the time really strange.
---
TCP Optimizer but only important for Vista and 7, but not for 8, in XP not in any case.
http://www.speedguide.net/downloads.php But i recommend only TCP Optimizer.
Set your InetSpeed and then choose "Optimal settings" save and restart. (You have also the possibility to reset by choosing "Windows Defaults".
...
But also important is:
> Deactivate Windows Update for playing games
> * Deactivate AV Backgroundscan while playing games, (named "Silent Mode" or "Game Mode" in AV or IS)
* (allways but specially for Games which doesn't need to much CPU Power).
...
But most important is:
> Stop watching porn while playing games. ![]()
> If others in the family use Inet, specially if they are watching YouFube or downloading something, your Inet can be unstable too.
> If nothig helps, use a cable, instead WLAN.
> On the other hand, there's a tool you can use to see, what other wlans-channels are used around you. If there are some using the same, choose a free one. (read * below)

Today, later, in Kursk, he was going on with the same imputations... called me a lier, that i am a tkiller, a hacker, ... etc.
Aldo, (or alvarez) and Atez were there too and perhaps one of them knows him.
I ask myself only, why he speak the same way, as the "Jesus" who tkilled one by one that day on Iwo Jiima, then he logged out, rejoined, did the same again. etc. etc.
If this this is only a stupid joke from another Jesus, then i ask him to stop with that.
...
...
First i ask myself, why you are so disgruntled , if you were not this jesus. (I wrote he's name was "Jesus").
On the other hand, today in the map gazala, (Map was around 14.25 CET+1), a "Jesus" was acting the same way, as this one in Iwo Jima.
Jesus was starting in a plane and get tkilled by the gunner from the stukka, which was starting too. I wrote (for the admin), that BfSoldier (i hope i remember the tkiller right) just tkilled Jesus, from the gunner position in the stukka.
But... what happend. Jesus wrote ... "Arkos lie".
Why and wherefore he came on that. It was in fact the same answers, like the jesus in Iwo Jima wrote, when i told him, that the Chat is logged. (stop shoting me, Arkos... but i didn't etc.)
Later, he wrote, that i'm a snake, and in the following map (Rhaid on Agheila), as he said it again, he was going on with... "go and write it in the forum". Why he come to that all, if this jesus today would not be the same as the one in IwoJima.
If it matters, then an admin could watch, which keyhash this jesus today had, to find out, who this one today really is.
...
...
Muahahaha ... this would be great, also if there are only 20-40+ players. But, i suspect the server needs a cooling down phase after such a battle.
...
...
A bit late, but not to late, i hope. For people, who still can't play in theire desired resolution....
...
In the case, like nämeless had it, you have to delete the profile in Battlefield 1942\Mods\bf1942\Settings\Profiles\Custom- folder.
This can happen, when the format of the video.con is corrupted.
After you deleted the old profile start the game, and make a new one. Then choose one of the standard Settings, as- exp. "high" and adjust a standard Resolution, which you know is supported by your monitor and save it. After you adjust Qualitysettings. When finished, save it and exit BF1942.
Now you can edit your new Custom Profile's "video.con" (Battlefield 1942\Mods\bf1942\Settings\Profiles\Custom- folder) and there you enter your desired resolution and refreshrate in the line "game.setGameDisplayMode xxxx xxxx xx xx"
As. Exp. > "1920 1080 32 60"
(Or 1440 900 32 60, (60 is your refresh rate, when you have a CRT or a lcd which makes higher refresh rate, use the refreshrate you want to play with. On newest lcd's up to 144 Hz)
Then safe and start the game and load a SP FastGame to test it. But it should be ok now. The Maps are now in your custom resolution and refresh rate.
(between in video,con the max. setting for "Texture Details" is 5)
And don't forget to change the FOV in videodefault.con as it's discribed on that page. http://www.widescreengaming.net/wiki/Battlefield_1942
For 16:10 you have to use 1.2 / for 16:9 1.3333 etc.
Your videodefault.con should look like this (Exp. 16:10 AspectRatio)
renderer.setFullScreen 1
renderer.fieldOfView 1.2
renderer.globalLodRadius 1
renderer.globalLodRadiusScaleFactor 5
console.showStats 0
renderer.allowAllRefreshRates 1
People who play without vsync can edit the following line too.
renderer.lockfps 999
(Between. > "renderer.allowAllRefreshRates 1" is the line which unlock all resolutions and refreshrates from your screen. But only original resolutions.)
After you did all this, and it runs, configure the your keyboard settings and play. (otherwise you could safe the folder "Controls" from your old profile and copy it into your new one.
If somebody needs help... write me a pm
But, i guess, most people have allready solved that problem. If you have still not the desired resolution, i know what's the problem. But this goes to far at this moment.
...
I forget. ReadOnly is not needed in my case. It works. Anyway. If it works once, copy your profile to avoid ev. upcoming problems in the future.
...
...
In this case, i vote for Berlin and Stalingrad, fighting with Bazookas only
can you imagin 160+ firing zooks and the smoketraces in the air?

I've collected some Windows XP registry tweaks, if anyone is interested in speeding up their Windows XP. Everything is commented, so you can select what you want and copy to a new .reg file.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
XQSetup is a free very usefull tool.
It's free Prof. Version. Key is written on owners page.
(OS Win98 > Win7, but my recommmmendation is up to WinXP. On Windows 7 it's possible that not everything is working, as 7 changed after the support of this tool ended. I used it to on 7, but i know the tool and its functions since many years).

By the way, if you ask yourself, why i am, like i am...
And the real reason, why i'm still using CRT's.
...
Ok, you got me... this is the reason, why i'm using CRT
No motion Blur, no ghosting, etc. and much more Dpi as in every HD LCD (Max. resolution 2304x1440@80Hz @24" 16:10 CRT = (visible area ca. same as a 22.5" lcd) and i can play games in every Resolution and refresh rate without degradation.
Here you can run the "Alien Invasion" and other monitor tests

There was once a server... The most important rules were written in red, big over the entire screen before a mapstart.
Perhaps it was BFA Coral Sea, but i can't remember exactly. There is a way to make some of most important rules visible to everybody before the map starts. This would help to avoid upcoming trouble.

> On weekends, the server is well visited, but when Addon-Maps starts, only 50% of the people follow.
> Another thing is the timer limit.
The gameplay starts often to be very good 10-20 minutes after the map started. This is the time, when the situation changes, means, the Team, which was inferior is coming up and the moment, where the real game and fun begins. But only for a short moment, because of the Koitus Interruptus by Timer. This specially in Battle of the Bulge with around 30+ people or in Tobruk.
In Tobruk, the APC for allies is a good thing. I remember one battle, where one was driving the APC between frontline and axis base, perhaps 40 meters to the right of frontline right flag in a sink. From there we had a great coming up and strike back.
And in case of the Timer for Tobruk... the map ends anyway, if allies lost all flags and all of them are eliminated.
> In my opinion, CTF in El Alamein are sometimes to short. When we all have really fun, the round ends by timer.
...
Is there a possibility to use "MapChangeVotingSystem" to a "TimerOffVoting". I think, only when it's a funny game, people will vote to deactivate the timer, (as example 2/3 ratio). (Perhaps you remember Wolfenstein Enemy Territory, where this was possible too).
...
> At last... what about an old fashion way CTF Berlin Inf only. Perhaps it would boost the Teamwork.
> After all this, i don't ask to deactivate Chutes in BOB. I understand, that not all people can fly very good. But... i have to say this here too.
If Chutes would be deactivated, people, who can't fly very well, would or could change to allies, to repair factory or defend the island with AA's or be an engineer to repair factory or RadarTowers. In this case, i would prefer to forbid to attack the Axis Base. Like this, it would be an old fashion way "Attack & Defend" Map and, i'm sure, it would boost the Teamwork. I remember many good BOB battles, where it depended on some single tickets to win or lose because of the factory, which keeps 2%, when Axis Tickets were going down, because we had around 10 engineers who spend theire lives to reach the target under heavy bombaredements.
(As allways, don't forget, i can't speak nor write english. I'm sorry, but you have to live with my grammar and orthography.)

Edited. "Another thing is the timer limit" > In case of Tobruk

You can use an old harddisk to install another OS to play older games. Newer mainboards support the choice of the booting primary Harddisk by pressing a f-key, while starting your PC.
The only thing, what you have to care about, is to disconnnect your WinVista/7/8 Harddisk, while installing as example WinXP. After finished installation, you shut down your PC, connect the original Harddisk, and while starting you press the f-key to choose, from which harddisk you want to start.
About this BootingChoice, you find informations in the manual from your mainboard. Asus is as exp. F11. If some OEM PC's/MB support this too, you can find out.
If somebody needs help to find out, if it's possible or not, write a PM.

In fact, i think, it is a PC thing. AMD Timestamp Problem. I found out, what i can do against it, and like this, the gameplay isn't that bad. Not solved, but much better. But there are still moments it changes while playing, but it's better.

I was log in to server "simple fra" at ~10.28 (GMT +1). Map was "Iwo Jima".
As i spawned on the carrier, jesus immediatly tkilled me. When i want to fly with SBD, he hopped into Gunner and shot the plane. He was going on with that and ignored all warnings.
With -6 he logged off, rejoined and then he start the same again and again.
After his rejoining, i warned him, that he would become a ban also after his second rejoining. He was laughing, and told me, that his friend is admin. I answered him, that i'm sure, his friend would not like to hear that.
As i told him, that the chat is logged, he begone to write, i should not tkill him, or wound him. But in fact i never shot 1 bullet o him. I told him, that also the stats are shown in the chat.
He was going on...
...

You can read the chatlog. It was between 10.28 (+) and 10.38 GMT +1 (Iwo Jima)
Im sure, that i'm not the only one, who comes to the conclusion, that the player named "Jesus" deserve a ban. And because his so dumb, he deserve a 1 week ban in my eyes, or minimum 3 days.
Perhaps you can watch the log, bec. i think, it was like this, before i was joining the server.
...
Beside... who is this admin friend he's talking about? If this is true, this one should think about this "friendship" or at least wash his friends head.
