since the engine update for all the source games i got a massive choke problem. On pubs i get sometimes 60 choke and on warservers 3-20 choke. My config worked now over 2 years perfectly, but since the update is my game unplayable. I also defrag my tf2 files and installed Chris Highfps cfg, but nothing happens.

//Netsettings
rate “30000”
cl_interp_ratio “1”
cl_interp “0.01”
cl_updaterate “66”
cl_cmdrate “66”
cl_smooth “0”
cl_smoothtime “0.01”
cl_lagcompensation “1”
cl_pred_optimize “2”
cl_interp_threadmodeticks “0”

I’ve had some pretty bad choke/loss problems since the engineer update, i dropped my rate to around 20/25k and it seems to have fixed the problem. might not work for you, but could be worth a try :)

i write in my soldier,scout and demoman.cfg different rate commands and all on the same server “nice-servers.com :: TF2 DM Server” (Sol=20000, Sc=25000, Demo=30000), my results:

Demoman (30000) = http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/9108/dem.jpg
Scout (25000) = http://img709.imageshack.us/img709/4070/26406560.jpg
Soldier (20000) = http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/6650/solx.jpg

any suggestions?

for a cpl of days i noticed choke on public servers (40-60) aswell.
but i rather think its a sv not a cl problem since it also comes with sv_fps drops. mostly happened to me on 24 player servers i wasnt able to check if it happens in 6v6 aswell yet.
at first i already thought it was fps drops since it occurs every now and then in a sudden stutter. using rate 35000 instead of 25000 gives me the feeling it works better though.

You can’t play with 12choke!? Pretty much got used to choke as soon as I started playing source based fps games. As for the update stutter I found http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1356735 helped. Didn’t totally resolve the problem but made is 10x better.

still got the choke problem…

No idea then sorry. Wasn’t a placebo for me, it improved the game. Before if say a scout was on my screen and he’d jump, my pc would freeze/struggle/stutter. Then in a split second I’m dead without seeing how it happened and my game cuts to a deathcam pic of the scout who is now around about 3 corners to where he killed me.
If you can’t totally get rid of choke, which I never really have been able to then below 15 should be playable. Wise up, turn netgraph off :)
