[Guide]How to reduce the lags!

[_FoulSoul_]

well i was searching for guides how to reduce lags in mmorpg...or any games since i had lags in sunworld2. and now after what i did i got no lags ..working like a Charm.

so i found way how to reduce the lags ingame, that working for me atleast.

*Working on windows xp SP 2+! (about vista,wind7 i didnt tried) so i don't know.

Basically, this fix is deactivating the Nagle algorithm to improve your ping.

now you will edit the registry TcpAckFrequency & TCPNoDelay.

1) Run > regedit
2) Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces
3)go to the folder which looks like {7DBA6DCA-FFE8-4002-A28F-D2B57AE8383} one of them, in this folder have you're all IP's ...etc
4) Right-click on the interface and select New->DWORD
5) Set the name to TcpAckFrequency (case sensitive)
6) Set to a decimal value of "1"
7) now Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSMQ\Paramet
ers
8)Right-click in the right hand pane and add a new DWORD value, name it TCPNoDelay, then right click the entry and click Modify and assign a value of "1".
9)Click Ok and close the registry editor, then reboot your PC to take effect.
====
For vista/win7

so do this for windows 7 and vista:
1 run “regedit”
2 Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\servic es\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces
3 Browse the items under interfaces until you find one that has an IPAddress entry matching the network interface you want to affect (typically LAN IP addresses start with 192.168 or 10.0); note that if your IP address is automatically assigned by a DHCP server you may need to look for a matching DhcpIPAddress instead of IPAddress
4 Right-click on the interface and select New > DWORD (32-bit) Value, name it “TcpAckFrequency”
5 Right-click the new TcpAckFrequency value and select Modify, enter “1″ (Hexadecimal radio button should be selected)
6 Right-click on the interface and select New > DWORD (32-bit) Value, name it “TCPNoDelay” (note that TCP is all uppercase this time – that’s intentional)
7 Right-click the new TCPNoDelay value and select Modify, enter “1″ (Hexadecimal radio button should be selected)
8 Verify that both TcpAckFrequency and TCPNoDelay now show up in the adapter’s property list with types REG_DWORD and values 0×00000001
9 Exit regedit and reboot

it reduced my lags totally in sunworld 2, before i had delay and lag as all..now i havent after done it i hope it will work for you all too.

[Furi0usS]

I read the tutorial, did everything. It's very interesting.

[the_belgian]

I can be that windows 7 tester but i'm waiting more "OMG it works "

[Furi0usS]

It depends on your system and more things. For me it is not working.

[_FoulSoul_]

for me it is ,just for the check i deleted the registry edits to see if lags come back without this registry guide ....and yes lagging like hell without them.

so for some people it will work like me..and for some not..

[cybernatus]

I need a laggy server in order to test it but unlucky, i'm on Vip.
But I will keep this thread on my favourites cause it still very interesting.

Thanks a lot "Hope it works for others people".

[_FoulSoul_]

i recommend you to try it on servers like sunworld2 to who playing, or any hardlag server

Ok, im trying it out.

Well same as it was before xD

[the_belgian]

7) now Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSMQ\Paramet
ers

Not in windows 7

[bkz1stnubz]

wow unbelievable lol i never though i'd see the day when swsro2=nice lol please sticky this thread

[.pR3y]

Well when i click modify again on TcpAckFrequency, it doesnt go with the second one(decimal). It's always on the first one... That's why i think doesnt work for me:S

Actually the Win 7 RWIN is dynamic depending on packet loss/fragmentation. It's not a fixed size..
An RWIN with a fixed value is not the best solution because your ping is always going to vary.

so do this for windows 7 and vista:
1 run “regedit”
2 Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\servic es\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces
3 Browse the items under interfaces until you find one that has an IPAddress entry matching the network interface you want to affect (typically LAN IP addresses start with 192.168 or 10.0); note that if your IP address is automatically assigned by a DHCP server you may need to look for a matching DhcpIPAddress instead of IPAddress
4 Right-click on the interface and select New > DWORD (32-bit) Value, name it “TcpAckFrequency”
5 Right-click the new TcpAckFrequency value and select Modify, enter “1″ (Hexadecimal radio button should be selected)
6 Right-click on the interface and select New > DWORD (32-bit) Value, name it “TCPNoDelay” (note that TCP is all uppercase this time – that’s intentional)
7 Right-click the new TCPNoDelay value and select Modify, enter “1″ (Hexadecimal radio button should be selected)
8 Verify that both TcpAckFrequency and TCPNoDelay now show up in the adapter’s property list with types REG_DWORD and values 0×00000001
9 Exit regedit and reboot
