Interesting. What is most interesting is that you just confirmed that the constant 'choking' of my connection is not in any way my fault. Bah, I hope there's some sort of setting that they fix before the actual game comes out. Whatever choke is, it's ruining my gameplay.

Actually when choke is in effect you don't send anything to the server, that would be (packet) loss.
Choke is a measure of the amount of packets you would like to send to the server, - or the server would like to send to you, but can't since you've already used all of your allocated bandwidth.
You have choke because either your client or (most likely) the server has put a cap on you transfer rate. In CS (the original), you'd have choke if your rate was too low (either capped by you or the server) in comparison to the update rates, cl_updaterate and cl_cmd_rate, lowering these would remove choke (but make responses slower)

And Re: videocards for the rest of you, yes, I'm on it. I have allocated $200 to the cause. What is more annoying about the texture problems with my mega-crappy onboard video is that they just started last night. As I posted earlier here somewhere, up to a few weeks ago I had zero (0) compatibility problems with CS:S. Now, one giant, awful bug. Anyway. |
