CPL Netcode To Be Changed?

Posted by Ripper at 09:55 8/10/2002.

I noticed over at sogamed that the CPL are looking at changing the ex_interp value from 0.05 to 0.1.

"The CPL netcode committee (Nuccio, Hoedemakers, Thorstensson) is currently looking at changing interp to 0.1 from the current setting of 0.05. Once CPL Commissioner Frank Nuccio gathers more data about what’s in the upcoming version Counter-Strike 1.6 more information will be released. Look for a final decision this week!"

After bds's feature where he basically made people believe that 0.05 was the correct value to use, it comes as a surprise that their now looking at changing it. Perhaps Zibbo's explanation had something to do with it?

	Necroboy 10:08 8/10/2002	Come on all you cfg whores with 0.05 change it now! [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Weebull 10:12 8/10/2002	He also said ping booster was the best invention for CS since the buyzone, and look how succesful that is now. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Ripper Rush! 10:14 8/10/2002	yeh i looked all over sogamed and couldn't find the URL to zibbo's explanation, if someone can find the link it would be much appreciated. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	mav masters 0f ownage 11:07 8/10/2002	finally, i cant wait for 0.1. 0.05 can cause some really jammy frags and isnt the most accurate way to play the game. Roll on cs 1.6 [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	chamber 11:15 8/10/2002	Zibbo's explanation in short: No matter what interp value the client has, the server always assumes it is 0.1 . So lets take aztec as an example. I'm sitting at the ct end of the water with my colt(and an interp of 0.05), you come running out into view(with an interp of 0.1). In that situation I will see you 50ms earlier, but if I fire directly at your head, chances are that I will miss as your hitboxes are 50ms behind the model. That's why you see so many headshots which look like they are totally behind the other player(ie they should've totally missed)... Bleh not so short but does it make sense?

	Dr_Evil^ 12:04 8/10/2002	Going back to 0.1 is going to make a lot of snipers very average overnight. Will be interesting to see who suffers and who can play through the change. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	dravicus 13:08 8/10/2002	Dr_Evil^ wouldnt b so sure on that, i use interp 0.1 and have experimented with other values and i find 0.1 is better for sniping, especially for hitting moving targets. dunno if thats just me though :o Lets see how it works out. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Necroboy 13:11 8/10/2002	If the hit boxes is behind the person wouldnt that be good for people with slow reflexes? You see the guy, shoot where he was and get a kill? It cant really be like that? thats dodgy [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	DaKid 13:15 8/10/2002	I awp with 0.1 and it does me when I'm on form ... zoom_sens 1.0 as well ... [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Anon 13:20 8/10/2002	Weebull, it was very succesful until recently Valve FIXED the bug in HLDS that PingBooster was made to fix. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Legacy` 14:18 8/10/2002	I find 0.1 more accurate, and can awp well with it on. I think locking the value will make for more accurate gameplay. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	DaKid 14:34 8/10/2002	Be nice if they locked everything (barring rate, cmdrate, updaterate and sensitivities), so that we can even the field a bit ... I know a lot of the top players would get a lot worse very quickly, but that's half the fun surely :) [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	LordOfBlood 14:44 8/10/2002	lol when i changed back to 0.1 about 3 weeks ago I started hitting lots more :D Must have uber fast reactions ;) LoB [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	DoZ Anti-saviour of UKT 14:53 8/10/2002	Predictive netcode and varying interps, rates and fps make for a fun game of what shots should hit and what shouldn't [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	chamber 15:47 8/10/2002	That's exactly what its like necro, most people take time between getting the xhair over your enemies head and pressing fire, so naturally it falls slightly behind them, therefore an interp of 0.05 rewards them in a sense...aswell as letting them see you earlier...

	nzg 20:46 8/10/2002	oh please dont tell Sev he might cry, f***ing moron. finally CPL / bds have listened to reason. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	Del 21:49 8/10/2002	>After bds's feature where he basically made people believe that 0.05 was the correct value to use Aye, a year ago, and I think he'd agree 1.0 was the 'better' value nowadays. tbh I'm glad sense has won out over all the misinformed bleating about how 0.05 was more accurate for low ping connections because of the netcode and similar tripe.

	Sev^ 23:39 8/10/2002	btw. http://www.sogamed.com/forums.php?id=13141&forum_id=2 If you're prepared to read a few pages. I don't claim to know everything, but everything I say is logical conclusion based on solid fact not second hand information from public forums. Im merely the voice of reason in a community of idiots. [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	shads theb0g 00:33 9/10/2002	i still think kinhell had the best theory, even though half of it was drunk/stoned/ranting bollucks :D [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
	shads theb0g 00:34 9/10/2002	but hard coding enough commands should prove that cs is just random not so much to do with config [ Comment: Report \| IP: Logged ]
