Ok.. for the past 2 years ive been hosting a server for CSS.. never a problem ever.. however at last ive come across a problem.. that seems also impossible to fix..
the symptom; enter the server.. and asap its acting as if the ping was 2000ms.. however clearly its not.. its not lagging at all.. and fps is pefect.. no choke or loss, input and output are normal.. ive checked console ingame and in both the steam srcds console and standalone srcds console.. (i tried it out on the standalone to see if there was a difference.. nope).. theres no errors or anything..
There were no hardware/software/internet/network changes at all.. it just decided to happen.. and no way of telling what it is.. ive tested out other games.. they all work perfectly fine.. ive wiped steam/valve/hl/srcds from the comp (completely) and reinstalled 100% fresh.. same problem..
could this be steam/valves fault? can i fix it? did windows maybe do something and not tell me? - why is only steam/srcds doing this? if i connect to any other server using the same machine.. it works perfectly.. but running scrds on this comp is now impossible.
help? ?
