GETTING PUNTED FROM BHD? READ THIS THEN.
It has nothing to do with temporary internet files. A clean computer and defragged system will run much faster than one that is not. But this has
nothing to do with temporary internet files. This happens when a players ping reaches his or her max ping setting of 1500 which is the default setting
in BHD. So when you are in a game and your ping goes over 1500, you will get punted. It also has nothing to do with the server you are in.
This setting is controlled by the online player and not the server he or she is in.
There are things that can cause your ping to go up or down. If you are running to much stuff in the backround while in game, the time of day. If the
map has to many buildings to close together or a poorly built map and so on.
If a player runs a trainer it will lag a server and knock everyones ping up.
You need to open your players settings in notepad and change your max ping number to a higher number.
Open your bhd folder in notepad
now select the drop down box where it says text change it to show all files.
Now look for a file called this-dfv.cfg and open it in notepad.
Now scroll down to multiplayer and look for max ping- 1500
change the 1500 to 5000
After you do that save it as all files in the drop down box.
If you save it as a text file it will not work, you must save it as all files so it replaces it's self as the file it was.
If you done this right after you go play online you should not get punted and if you do it will not be as near as much as when that number was set to
1500.
I hope this helps.
This will work in most cases.
I have tested it my self.
I was in a server once and my max ping setting was at the default setting of 1500.
Of course I got punted.
So I came out of game opened notepad.
Changed max ping setting to 7000. Then I went back into the same server and did not get punted again.
To be sure I came out and changed it back to 1500 went back in and got punted. Came back out and changed back to 7000, and did not get punted. Are you
getting the picture?
YOU have alot better chance of not getting punted if you raise your players max ping rate then if you do not.

Crazy kiff
No friend I did not lie, and I take the information I share about games very seriously. You answered your own question. Since you are on 56k, good
luck in any online gaming. I was on 56k for 2 yrs. It was 2 years of nightmares, after I got on cable the nightmares stopped.
Also try an attitude adjustment.:P

Seems to Work
I have a 56k and I think it worked fine. Only got punted once last night, instead of every time. I have a T1 at work and less punts there too. We owe
you one Bova.

Irsink and crazy kiff
Hey guys,
I am glad I could help you Irsink, that's great man. I am glad it helped you. I try to help when I can.
Crazy kiff no problem dude, I know how annoying 56k can be. I played TDM on 56k in DF2 for 2 years. Man what a pain in the back side it was. But this
was before I got cable and became a COOP fanatic lol.

Can't believe someone doesn't want broadband - are you MAD!!
I was suffering on 56k for too long, lots of punts and lag etc, broadband recently came to our area (sadly not cable) and Iv'e only had it for a week
but i'd rather give up my right testicle than lose broadband it make multiplayer a dream come true.

Please don't think being harder to hit is an advantage, remember it's also harder for you to hit other people.
Anyway how can you possibly believe 56k is better than Broadband?
Sorry but I need facts..

56K'ers with a M240...really hard to kill, hehe.
Set "ping"max to 5000? Not on my server, lol. I think my teammates would get a little annoyed if ppl with "pings" that high came in.
I've set mine to max 800. Good balance I think.

It does not do anything to the server. It just keeps a player from getting punted if his ping goes up for some other reason.
Like if there was to much stuff in a map or something. You know what kills me? When I try to help others and people like you who don't know their butt
from a hole in the ground throw around rude comments like this.
What do you think you are einstien?
I can tell just by the rude comment that you made, do know what you are talking about.
Do you have anything constructive to offer or any intelligent information to offer that others may benefit from?:P

Rude comment? Either I'm blind or you had too much coffee, mate.
High pings can ruin a game for other players.
Maps with "too much stuff" in it will affect ones machine more than the connection. The so called ping we see in the game is a combination of more
things. One can have an ok ping in a game but still have a "laggy" experience. That would most likely be machinelag or perhaps there are too many
players with too high pings causing the server to be "laggy".
Now if you will excuse me, I want my coffee now

OK S MC, I do drink alot of coffee lol. If I didn't I would be a zombi mate. That is fair enough, you explained it better that time. I understand
what you are talking about now and I can relate to it. But even I was getting punted from some games, not many but it was happening. I download at
over 2 MB per second and upload at up to 158 kb per second. So I don't think it should have been happening to me. The measley default 1500 max ping
novalogic allows players is not enough. Some of it just plain out related to the game BHD it's self. Anyway thank you for your feedback and good
information.:D

Not at all friend, I am simply stating the facts behind the statements I have made.
Do you have any good information about BHD COOPS to add or about running a BHD server, or why BHD runs the way it does, or why people get punted from
servers alot when they should not be.
Inquiring minds would like to hear from you. LMAO.:P

That's just it Vox, you are not saying anything constructive. I do not make mods. I am not a mod wanna be. What I have been discussing is not a mod
at all. Anybody can do it. I was trying to help people stop getting punted from the game BHD so much. I did not make you make the comment you made
either. You did that all by your self. Now if you have nothing constructive to say or add. I would appreciate it if you would stop flaming me and
making comments on this thread that mean nothing. All you are trying to do is make snod remarks because I am trying to help people.

Good tip BOVA. Personally, I still think the nova ping values are bogus. They simply jump around too much.
Steptoe, is this the good banter we were talking about in the rant and rave LOL.
Vox, some times it is just better to stay out of a topic if you don't have something of value to add other than a snide remark.

56k
not all of us have dsl or cable available to us. I live out in the sticks so neither is an option. Trust me i call and whine every 3 monthe at the
phone and cable co.
as for dish internet; $700 for equipment ,$75 a month for service and a 1/2 to one second lag time!! Enough said.
however i am currently looking at a t1 but to afford it i will probobly set up game servers and sell time on game servers for
squad tournements. So next time you [Censored] and say get cable remember, not all have fast internet avilable to us.
