Title: Multiplayer / Network issue
Post by: Papanowel on August 04, 2015, 11:45:45 AM
Hello, I set up a server for test but once one of my team mates joins he has some huge desync.

I only have 5mbits for upload but it should be enough for two players.
Do you have a proper configuration files or you use the default one?

Regards,

Papanowel

Make sure the "Multicast" setting does NOT have a check mark inside it for all players.

To remove Multicast:
•   VBS Launcher
•   VBS3 tab
•   Network tab
•   Multicast option: remove the X
•   Launch

Also make sure that fire walls are set correctly. Use the tool.

Firewall_Exception_Tool
Location: VBS3 3.7 \Bohemia Interactive Simulations\VBS 3.7.0\optional\support

Upload speed of 5Mbps is fine

I am on TeamSpeak. I can test with you

Regards

Hi Papanowel

I met up with Panthera in TeamSpeak and in VBS today.

We ran a basic test to allow us to connect in VBS. I hosted and Papanowel joined. It worked well.

Panthera did have some FPS issues and has adjusted some in-game settings. He is on a satellite connection.

Regards

We ran some tests.

Test 1:
Host = Asid
Client = Papanoel
Result = No issues

Test 2:
Host = Papanoel
Client = Asid
Result = Issue. Slight warping of Papanoel. Possibly due to his VBS install being on a very slow HDD. He will re-install onto SSD and we retest.

Will update with results

Hello Asid,

I moved everything on my SSD and it seems that most of the desync are gone (still not as good as your connection).

I have 3 members ready for a mission, I will lurk your forum for any mission ;)
