mp problems

Hi,

This is a problem a few of us are having in off2mp, but seeing as how mp in cfs3 is more popular, and has been going on longer, am posting it here.

To an observer following another plane, the center of the plane in front follows the correct path it is flying , and there is no apparent "stuttering", or jerking, which would indicate lag, but instead, the plane rotates, tumbles, and all sorts of other manuvers. being behind a plane that is flying backwards is not at all uncommon.

As soon as we get close to the deck, this and control problems increase dramatically.

just got a link to a post made by jg300-stoopy (thanks carnivore) , and it looks like it may have some helpfull info there, espcially the part about the gun fire effecting game play.

Should anyone have any input on what might be causing these problems, and in addition to jg300's post any possible solutions, it would be greatly appreciated.

What is confusing me the most at this point is, if this was a lag problem, the planes should suddenly appear to move forward, left, right,,,etc..

What we are seeing are planes that are moving forward smoothly, they just rotate around in all sorts of differnet ways as they fly. You can pretty much tell where the plane is going as you fly behind it, you just cant tell where it might go NEXT, as you have no idea what way the plane is really faceing.

and, the loss of control, as we near the ground, is really frustrating.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
