Map Changes...

How come when ever the maps change my ping goes from 400 to 4000?(seriously) Whenever the maps change it says Cl: Flush Entity packet -_- how do I fix this map change problem?

mmhh.. did you installed any new maps/models/bots etc?

or, trie'd to reinstall HL OR esf?

he is having some major problems with his ESF, and he has reinstalled it 4 tiems he said in 2 earlier posts...

how about delete the WHOLE half-life? and reinstall it again

Yeah.

When this happens does it still change the map or does it timeout or freeze/crash HL? If it changes maps anyway and your ping is normal after then i wouldn't worry about it. And why is your normal ping 400? 28.8k modem? you should AT LEAST have 56k, or maybe your comp is weak. Other than that I would say its the fault of the server perhaps.

no its not his fault lot of servers i join lag out when they change maps its just cause tehy are crappy servers (not a lot of RAM)

Oh. I think a server should get a map and stick with it for like 3 hours.
