Pam4 CL_MAXPACKETS=30

jonski

Pam4 installed on our server and when I join it , it kicks me for CL_MAXPACKETS=30 should be between 60 and 100 . So I go into the mp cfg and change it to 100 then save it , come out and go back in and it is still set to 100 . Now I go on the server , it kicks me for the same reason ...I go back intot he mp cfg file and it is set back to 30 again .......grrrrrrr .


Anyone have any ideas ?

When you type in cl_maxpackets in console does it show up as being set to 100?

If it does it might be a bad line in your servers 'pb/pbsv.cfg', it should say
pb_sv_cvar cl_maxpackets IN 30 100.

We had the same problem with r_fog, it kept kicking us for having fog off even though we turned it on.

Twas a silly mistake easily rectified ... I had the game running in the back round , when I shut down the game and tried it it worked fine .

Should I have the maxpackets changed anyway ...like in CS:S I had it set to 100 all the time , should I Have it set to 100 for public games ??

I asked the same question to the person who was telling me about this command! He said: "don't ask, just do it, it helps". That's the dumbed down version for you right there!
