Title: Terrible terrible hamachi lag
Post by: kcdowdy on August 24, 2010, 02:59:00 AM
Hello again, me and a friend are desperate, We want to play a game with atleast no lag.. Over hamachi, And it is laggy as heck, Can anyone help us? :D

Me and him are both using the same thing, DSL 2.1, The host is the only person never to lag, Well, Bots don't either but for people connecting it's horrid.. So does anyone know how to improve this? (Both of us have 1M up, Which is enough for 20 packets a second.. Which is very very smooth..)

There isn't anyway to improve this except to use REALLY simple bots like AW's and BW's. The game :FFFUUU  Ra2 is just laggy for some people. Usually the host has much less lag/ none at all.

RA2 and Online Play never mixed very well

your best bet for lagless multiplayer is to set up physical lan with 2 computers.. thats what I have done in the past

Oh hey welcome back :)

I have to agree with SM and Joe here, but yeah. RA2 always was laggy.

Atleast Gamespy worked.. the packet loss is immense with Hamachi. Unplayable in all cases but the host's unless using FBS/SnS.
