Bad Syncs

[[_KlesK_]]

Yo guys since a month or so I can't play sam anymore, whenever I join a game I get disconnected often due to "too many bad syncs", I can play for max 5 mins, usually 2-3 and sometimes a few seconds, then I have to press f9 or disconnect. During my last match with Lexa I got disconnected like 10 times . I tried reinstalling sam, using the steam copy, using a crack provocation gave me, reinstalling windows, resetting router but nothing worked. This happens with every netscript. Is anyone else having this problem? Is it a servers' problem, a problem with my ISP, with my PC, with my router settings or something? Is there a fix? Damn I wanna play I miss my awesome -4/43 scores I used to get

Well again, it didn't do anything for me, but it's worth a try - right click on the Sam executable file and hit Properties. In the Compatibility tab set "Run this program in compatibility mode for" to Windows XP.

Already did it, I also run it as administrator

Ah yes, you were telling me about this and it did happen in a match when we were playing together. I don't know how to fix this but I think it's only happening to you so something must be wrong on your end, I am not having these problems but hopefully someone can help you!

Hmm, must be some network problem then.. Try downloading this and setting your connection speed, then check the "optimal" radio button and apply changes.. Make sure to run the program as admin.

I think u must have a very low upload rate, try to reduce the sent packages data, turn anything related to auto updates off and make sure theres no process running that has similar functions

I already tried it, but it doesn't solve the problem

I don't think that's the problem since I have 1mb upload, which is the max u can have in Italy. Btw, here's my speedtest:

And here's my pingtest:


As u can see I have a very good connection quality, that's why I couldn't understand where did yellow spikes come from during every game
Of course when I play I turn off every application that could use download or upload

This might be because of intrusive antivirus software. Try disabling any kind of antivirus/firewall.

ye i think its cuz antivir too
i have this prob with Kaspersky if i try get a demo
edit ur antivirprog following folders should not check:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Croteam
C:\Users\Omega\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Croteam
check options first and set show all files and folders in windows

Nope, I just tried disabling firewall and even disinstalling antivirus, but still it disconnects me after 30 seconds or so Though I found it funny that some client called me "simo" when I was random spamming in fortress with alias "testingnet"
