I’ll stick to my retro incabulator. The typical logarithmic amulites do just fine.
Good that someone is looking into this and trying to better it. But if you know how 'game smoothness' and 'reg' works, there is no chance of it working for everyone and it could actually make it a lot worse for the majority. Like seeding clouds to make it rain - it always comes with a cost of something else. The game is so old and near extinct that running experiments on it doesn't really make a difference anymore, so best of luck!
Are you implying that there’s only so much of the “improvement pie” to go around? Confuse by what you’re saying here tbh.
Uuuz made it sound like just desync fixes between client and server at the cost of added stress on CPUs (which is likely negligible on todays systems), as opposed to taking from one person and giving to another.
a patch for "perfect" hits would be great too
just saying
Maybe try his “experiment” feature and see what you think. It seemed to make a noticeable difference when enabled from what I could tell. Some others seem to agree.
Has anyone else tried this feature of BF42 Plus? Uuuz is asking for more feedback
Praise uuuz!
Am I missing something? I haven’t seen Paul crack down on any of the buffoonery on the forums. The inmates of this asylum are free to roam about as far as I’ve noticed. He mentioned on Discord that he thinks politics shouldn’t be discussed in the game server, but nothing about the forums or Discord.
If you think moderating the fringes of speech is the cause of this forums downfall then I’d like to invite you back to planet Earth, but something tells me your head will remain in the clouds.
very excited for the buddy list add-on! great work uuuz
No fairy tales here. You just admitted that you've done it. And I know for a fact that you reapplied it within the last year as well because I noticed it myself. Who knows what other changes you've made because you've even said that you're not willing to be transparent about it. Stop projecting your lack of conscience on others.
Picture this, we are all happily playing football at the school playground, teams are balanced, everyone is friendly to each other, then these two brothers come along, they enter the pitch without permission, take the ball away and say, we either play or no one plays anymore. We let them play and they start provoking and humiliating everyone, no one is having fun anymore, but them. Bell rings, we run to class, having wasted our playground time with them. End of story.
Such a ridiculous and disingenuous take.
Now imagine this: the owner of the game ball, who also participates in the football games, secretly modifies the game ball to alter its behavior during play without informing the other players. When the players detect the change, the owner denies any alterations and discreetly restores the ball to its original state (but introduces other unknown changes to the game). Despite this, the owner continues to deflect blame and portrays someone else as the troublemaker.
PitViper loves that ban hammer when his ego is damaged
I didn't say Moongamers were without fault. There are plenty of instances where the admin behavior is questionable or worse. You can feel however you want about it, but they've managed to capture and retain new players while Simple is struggling to repopulate. And FWIW, MG has gone above and beyond to help inform the population that Simple is up and running on a new IP.
I criticize Moongamers plenty, and they are mostly great about responding when something warrants attention. Quite presumptuous of you Cal because you're wrong, but that's not what's important. Hopefully, these things being worked on can revitalize the server because this game is healthier when Simple is thriving.
Mr. Angeleyes, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this thread is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
Valid criticism is met with "Haha" and a disingenuous request for feedback. The house is on fire, but leadership insists on fanning the flames. Reap what you sow.
This would be great if you could collaborate with uuuz. Seems like the perfect scenario to utilize his server.
Here's a showcase of the vehicle select screen that uuuz created. All of this is server side as well.
Really cool server side mod made by uuuz. Also caught a rare kill on film as well lol
So what the hell exactly is going on @ 0.16?
I mean he hasn't even actually lead him yet, watch, that crosshair sniper dot doesn't even actually read his head at all,
its fired behind short, yet still scores a hit?
Combination of high ping and desync probably. I also think that the hitboxes (especially running perpendicular to someone) lags a bit behind what's actually on your screen
Ggs! That was on Uuuz's free for all mod, which is a lot of fun and well-suited for 3 - 6 infantry. A lot of action and great practice. Here are some clips from the same round ninja posted:
ChatGPT has an enlightening response about hackusations in BF1942.
Prompt: I have been playing a video game for nearly 15 years. The game is about 20 years old. It's a multiplayer online first person shooter. I usually perform well in the multiplayer games, but the other players frequently accuse me of using cheats. I've done everything to prove that I play without using any cheats or enhancements, even submitting video footage of my perspective of the same rounds that they have accused me of cheating. Why would players treat me this way?
ChatGPT's Response:
It's unfortunate that you're facing accusations of cheating despite providing evidence to the contrary. There could be various reasons why other players accuse you, and it's important to consider different perspectives:
Skill Discrepancy: Sometimes, players accuse others of cheating simply because they find it hard to believe someone can be exceptionally skilled. Your years of experience in the game might make your performance seem extraordinary to less experienced players.
Frustration or Jealousy: Other players might accuse you out of frustration or jealousy, especially if they are struggling in the game. Accusing someone of cheating can be a way for them to cope with their own frustrations or explain their own shortcomings.
Misinterpretation of Gameplay: Some players may misinterpret certain gameplay mechanics, skilled maneuvers, or lucky shots as evidence of cheating. This misunderstanding can lead to unfounded accusations.
Cultural Norms: In certain gaming communities, there might be a prevailing culture of skepticism, and players may be more prone to accuse others without solid evidence.
Previous Incidents: If you've faced accusations before, some players might carry over those suspicions even if you've proven your innocence. Reputation, whether accurate or not, can play a role in how others perceive your gameplay.
It's essential to stay calm and continue enjoying the game. Engaging positively with the community, explaining your perspective, and maintaining sportsmanship can help alleviate misunderstandings over time. If the accusations persist and affect your experience, consider reaching out to game moderators or community managers for assistance.
I hope it’s just the OS and not actual changes that have been implemented without at least informing the community
ggs ninja, always fun
Seems to be working very well for me and my 150 ping. Outside of the typical delay, shots are registering far more often and without the need to lead due to ping.
However, I have tried this patch on 7 or 8 different servers with pings from 30 - 220 and SiMPLE seems to be by far the most inconsistent. It really feels like other changes have been made to the server or game for it to behave differently. This experience is unique only to this server. Several SiMPLE regulars have also mentioned that Moongamers now feels better to play on post-patch. The difference in game performance and consistency is noticeable between the two servers. It'd be great if leadership could look into this and revert or correct whatever may be causing this drop in quality.
Recorded through Gamebar?
OBS
I shortened the video to just the sniper shots
Hi. Looks good.
What about sidenotes/disadvantages? Have you found out something? What about being killed around the corner? etc. Have you tested it?
That feeling of being killed around the corner can happen from time to time, especially if the shooter has a higher ping. Even with that, it only means that you were on their screen and they hit you. It's still an improvement over shots not registering at all.
I haven't found any disadvantages so far. It's not perfect, but it's pretty nice and a huge bump in quality even at lower pings.
Hey everyone,
I'm sure some of you all are aware of the new hit registration patch that was created recently, but I wanted to share it here as well.
There is server-side patch that drastically improves the hit registration while targeting infantry. On the stock version of the game, you are required to lead your target based on your ping. The higher the ping, then the further you would need to lead your target. For infantry especially, a ping above 80-90 usually meant that you were going to have a tough time hitting your shots since the hit registration gets increasingly worse the higher your ping.
Now players can aim directly at their target without having to worry about leading to compensate for ping. I've tested this extensively on pings as low as 8 to as high as 220. Even at 220 ping, the hit registration was better than having 30 ping normally. Watch the video below for an in-game demonstration before/after. The video was recorded on the Desert Combat mod, but this patches vanilla and other mods as well.
And to make things even more convenient, this patch is able to be applied server-side, which means that the regular players will not have to download or install anything as long as the server they're joining is running the patch.

Honestly, much of this really wouldn't be in question if he merely used his real alias instead of a smurf name. Obviously, he must be up to no good if he is concealing his identity regularly.
But yet, the combined intellect, analysis, and variable competencies from the entire BF community with an accumulative experience of over 2 or 3 centuries can only conclude that these behaviors are UNEXPLAINABLE and SUSPICIOUS.
To really cement this lunacy, the accusers are ALWAYS unable to provide a personal perspective of these unwinnable gun fights and supposedly inhuman encounters.
The more likely explanation is that the complainers are conceited, unimaginative, illogical, and only interested in the self-preservation of their ego.
But ignore me, this is only my second post, I'm an entire ocean away and these cheaters wouldn't be able to compete in a competitive 8vs8+ environment anyhow...
yep, such a brilliant players would be millionaires in Cs-go for example, but them are still giving away precious talent in old Battlefield 1942....
You can almost taste the vanity and faux apathy. I'm sure the sarcasm helps you cope though.

I only see Master and Cran breaking rules in that video. Polluting the chat with unfounded hackusations.
Very embarrassing for you.
Your twitch videos show mediocre infantry skill and not very much intelligence from what I’ve seen. The difference is incredible. I think you should study and learn instead of coming here to complain.
