Dont let them pull you down by sayn, thanx for the white elephant....Kudos man! fix it before its broke I always say. As for mods halo ce is a major mod, I like it. «JL» Clan will be opening a dedicated CE server soon. we already have a server that FLOATS between pc and ce. PC modded maps are a great deal of fun and a relexing way to unwind...when they are decently moded. as for you PURISTS those of us noobs that like to use every available weapon or vehicle to wage war will always win..just ask saddam if he was screaming at his computer screen "Those darn american campers sitting in their planes blowing my army to lilittybitty bits. wtf those hackers! NOOBS!"

I say war is HELL and fight it like you want take over and set up a hotdog stand.

Oh well...the link to the dedicated server update doesn't work, so I'll try back again.
AND will you please stop noobing the tank to the otherside?

try muffmeister's site:

http://www.halomaps.co.uk

download the map, use winrar or winzip to extract the .map file, then copy the .map file into your halo ce maps folder (example: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\maps).

That wont work becuase muff map files when you exact them they are in folders so you need to take the map out of the folder and put it in halo Ce dierctory for maps.

We have upgraded some of our dedi servers with the 1.7 patch and we have noticed lots of users complaining about severe lag when they are playing. Everyone's ping times are great (around 60), the load on the server is low (dual xeon, loads of ram), and we have confirmed with the ISP that our line latency and bandwidth is fine. We have also confirmed that there are no idots pulling any stunts on the maps to try to increase the lag on the servers.

Servers we still have running the 1.6 patch don't seem to have the problem. Has anyone else seen problems upgrading their dedi's to 1.7, or even better if there are workarounds that people have implemented that help resolve the lag problem then we would love to hear them.

Not that i want to point the finger at the 1.7 patch straight away, but we only started getting these problems since the 1.7 patch was deployed, so we are highly suspicious that there may be a bug with the patch.

Thanks for your time,

i know there's not much left to discuss here. Is this the last patch for Halo PC? Has there been any work made to help fix the problems that everyone -blam!-ed about on the first 6 pages? Is there a way for us gamers to try and fix these problems ourselves (like HEK, but for netcode and stuff)? Anything else happening to Halo PC in general that we don't know yet?

Its interesting that I had been running 1.07 for some time with no problem. Then, about 3 weeks ago, I installed a bunch of MS-security patches and my problems (with Halo for PC *only*) have been difficult since.

1. I lost chat information until I reinstalled the MSXML install kit as indicated in the microsoft support knowledge base .

2. I now experience *SEVERE* lag almost all the time.
a. I've tried upgrading, downgrading my ATI Radeon 9600XT drivers
b. I've tried running with *no* MS services
c. I've tried upgrading DirectX to 9.0c
d. I have many many times tested my cable modem through put and am getting as good as, if not better bandwidth.
e. I've tried futzing with *all* of the video settings from the ATI driver level as well as within the Halo Settings for video, sound, etc.

I know this is client-side only, but I'm really wondering what is going on and would desperately like some help!

I'm about to punt on the whole thing and chuck Halo PC....is *this* what MS is really trying to get us to do? Buy an Xbox?

Sounds like a crazy conspiracy theory, but...

Help!

if you really want us to help, tell us if you're warping, high ping, low framerates, excessive leading of shots. posting the same exact thing twice isn't gonna help you get an answer faster or quicker.
