I dont know what choke is, but I noticed it on the graph that shows connection info. I forget what the console command is(net something).

You type "net_graph 3" (w/o quotes) in console and on the bottom right of your screen, you will see choke, along with some other things. net_graph 2 and net_graph 1 displays graphs and stuff.

If you type net_graph 03 in your console (yes, I believe you need the zero), it should bring up an information box in the bottom right corner of your screen. It should say 'Choke: #' somewhere in there. 0 choke is optimal. If you're getting around 30 choke you're lagging bad. It has to do with system settings. I haven't needed to tweak my choke, so I have no idea how.

I put net_graph 3 to show the graph. I usually have 0 choke, but a few times I saw it at 1 or 2.

99.9% to 100.00% it is your client that causes teh choke.

You like in the TFC select server brought to you by the game and you say you have a t1 and then you get the download from a T1 sever at a high high high and set up to be pure rate.

1337 mentioned the things to look at in a another post and look at those with choke.

Choke is not sever side. It is folks messing with client side data recieve rates.

I have done it before. But I have told my config I am DSL and my rates.

If you go above what you have you will choke out, Espc since the ville 1 is on a T1 dedicated line.

And tfc the game itself is not cpu intensive. It they ran UT 2003 and I lagged I would blame the server but not for a simple engine like HL has
