Click...... Think....... Click....... Think........

Post by Dan »

Installed ShotOnline, problem is when I go to play golf itself... It takes a while to do things that I have clicked. Like when In multiplayer I can see them do it straight away on mine but mine takes soooo long. I know it cant be FPS lag or anything like that... Anyone have this problem?

System Specs

AMD 64at 2800+ or 3200+ something around that mark.
1GB Ram
Nvidia 7600gs 256MB

He has a 2800+ Athlon64 754pin cpu.

I was watching what happens and basically id take my shot and it would appear fine, like as soon as i clicked the bar would come across for power and i could click it no problem on my pc, then he'll see my shot, no lag.

However, when he goes to click the golf ball to play his shot, the mouse curser will disappear, then there will be what almost feels like a good 5 seconds lag, then the power bar will activate, then he can click again to give power then again to aim, then another 5 seconds pass and his shot will finally happen, then on my pc i see his shot.

So when its his turn basically, theres a ton of lag. But it feels like system/game lag, not frame lag or anything.

Fo you have any other programs running in the background that would be consuming resources or bandwidth?

Well we fixed it.

Basically his RAM timing was WAY off!

Was running at PC2100 (DDR200) Speed, which made the whole PC really dodgy., also in single channel mode too.

We fixed it all up and now it runs at PC3200 (DDR400) speed and dual channel, runs like a dream, shot online is awesome now lol. :D
