delete your paths before playing with others, you'll have paths for an older version which will desync you

Does it start to lag immediately? Seemed fine to me, I did notice you have no start positions.

I used

Code: Select all

	[TEAM0]
	{
		StartPosX=500;
		StartPosZ=500;
	}
	[TEAM1]
	{
		StartPosX=7000;
		StartPosZ=7000;
	} 
If it lags after some play, try setting the hardness way up, I don't see how it relates to shadows but worth a try none the less.

Yes I am planning on making it harder. I am kind of stumped atm, sometimes it doesnt lag, sometimes it does (when the game starts after placing start points), and sometimes the whole map is one big shadow. Also on my last test game it was fine until someone dgunned and then gg 1fps everytime they did lol :roll:

I just had a look and i think making it harder will help, also delete your paths, that should help with the sync problem.

I haven't made it lag yet, I've tried changing the water renderer, from basic to refelection + refraction. I have to admit it I may not tried enough times yet.

Do you perhaps have several versions of this map saved with different archive names but having the same named map files inside, easily done when developing a map?

Have you tried other maps since the problem started? It could be system resource or driver issue perhaps.
