EXTREME Server Lag
Posted: Tue Oct 23, 2012 10:18 pm
When I try to start a server using Doomseeker, it starts fine. But when I go to join, it enters a mode i've seen with source ports that I call, Ice Lag. 
The screen doesn't pop in. It slowly slides in. I get a big long scroll of console text.
"Requesting Screenshot"
*repeat ad nauseum until screen is overflowing*
The hud is barely visible through the console as
Health: --
Ammo:--
Armor:--
And the arms numbers are completely not there.
I am running a Windows XP SP3, Pentium 4 2.26 GHZ, never any problems in Singleplayer mode. A 1 MB/S connection, also. Port 10666 is forwarded, but it always seems to be connecting through 10667. Why is that? Does the port have something to do with it? Why is it connecting through 10667 instead of 10666? Any ideas on how to fix this? Or am I wasting my sweet time on Zandronum for MP?
