Vice City: Multiplayer

Well, I have a problem that can be seen in the film.

https://youtu.be/9qL3Vn8BAi8 (sorry for quality).

When current packet loss reaches 100%, I can't write on chat and spawn. I see what others write in the chat. The problem occurs after a few minutes from the entrance to the server. This problem is repeated for each server. The problem doesn't occur on hamachi. I don't have this problem on 0.3, Liberty Unleashed or another multiplayer.  I have XP SP3.

That operating systrm is no longer supported by the 0.4, I think that is the problem.

In vcmp are other people who have this system and they dont have this problem.

Could be something wrong with your hardware if others don't have this issue :-\

Does this error occur immediately after joining or after some time? If after some time, how long on average?

Who is your ISP? Do you usually have packet loss issues? Can you do a test on pingtest.net and post the results so I can try to emulate your connection?

SP3 is still supported. XP SP2 and below are not.

On average a few minutes after entering the server.

Does it fluctuate in the game? Or it's just continuous packet loss after it starts?

Sorry for bump.

My router thought it was a DDoS attack and I couldn't receive any more packets from the server.

Use switch case instead of using tons of if statement.

Do you know what you're talking about?

Buying a new router was a good decision anyway. I had a lot of problems with the previous one. Now just better.

Time to close that :D
