A bug...Or problem...Or...

[Player_One]

Hi,
I've bought an retail version of Red Orchestra from a shop this week, the game is awesome, everything's fine, played a few matches on the Internet already. My problem or bug is that when the servers players count goes up to 16-20, or either it's an an very big map, all characters (soldiers) begin to rotate insanly in all directions and I can't understand what are they doing (but all they do is just watch infront of them). Any suggestions how to fix it?
Regards

System specs, just to get a better picture and what connection do you have ?

 

[Player_One]

I have cable connection, getting 80-120 ping on most of the servers.
My system specs: Intel Pentium 4 1700 Ghz
Memory: 766 MB RAM
Video: GeForce FX 5500
Anything else needed?

In that case I think you should check the Tweak guide to get things loading a little faster, look for things like turning pre-cache to False rather than True.

All the information you need is documented.

Give it a go if you have not done so already.


Good Lucks !

This happens to me as well, but there doesn't seem to be any logical pattern as to when it will happen. I figure it is just because I am using a PC that hardly qualifies for the game and because all of my settings are on the lowest they can possibly be. I don't think it has anything to do with the type of connection I get on servers though.

It always happends on computers where the processor got problems, more players means the processor got to do more work so thats why you probably get the problem. Try to set ragdoll stuff to low, and decals to off (basically try to reduce all cpu power when possible)

Well, I found a thread here about it, tweaked the engine line a bit in .ini file (set it to 128 since I have 766), and it worked! Loads a bit faster, and now everything is OK (even in servers with ping 200). Thanks for the help, guys!
