Whats up with the lag?


Teller

Recommended Posts

Hi.


Since many other players have been complaining lately, I've decided to raise this question public and seek answers.


Why is server have constant lag spikes? Is this error on users end? Is it bad quality server/client patch? Is there any possible even temporary fix for this?

@Teller I was experiencing horrible lag with an RTX 2070 Super and an i7-8700k, it got so annoying I switched back to windows 7 (dual boot) and all my problems went away.


I now experience little to no lag or latency in SAES.


So when I went to play MTA i can boot up Windows 7, and for anything else I can switch back to Windows 10, just by restarting my computer. I believe it may be a mix of people's computer hardware/operating systems and server lag.

Well I'm not a genius regarding those kind of issues, but I think that simple it is, since a majority of the people are in quarantine, so the population is using more and more of internet, so perhaps that could have a certain consequences on the ping.. _()_/

There is no need for a better server, we run a dedicated server that's more than capable of running MTA.


It runs all our services, so if it was a 'shit server' then all the services would be acting up.


The lag is being investigated and it's possible that a resource within the SAES gamemode could be causing it now that we've started to get a greater number of players again.

Can you also do smth about the many fps drops that I and lots of other players randomly get for no reason please.

I believe the spikes you get are when you go near a gang base (that isn't loaded) once it loads, you should be fine until the next time you connect, we did it this way to stop it loading on connect/login as some people was sitting at the login screen for over 2 minutes.


We are looking at loading bases asynchronously to get rid of the issue either way, but I cant give a definitive timescale on when that will be done.


Keep an eye on discord and the news forum of the forum, we will update you guys once we have found the issue with the lag.

this "more lag" atleast motivates me to finally install win7, wich i wanted do since i came back from inactive.
can confirm this win7-10 difference:
me 2010/11 same pc with 8gb less ram & worse graphic card, but win7 = constant 60fps on gta sa with atleast 100+ mods.
now win10 with better graphic card + 8gm more ram = shitty fps on gta sa without any single mod.
it have deffinitly to do with win10, tryed everything, even kenny tryed help me/find problem & there was noone
(also idk if the new lagraise lattly have to do with win10 tbh)

The current lag issue affecting all users on the server (especially when we have higher player counts) should be resolved as of last night after the crash/reboot.


You will still get the little ones as you near bases while they load until we sort asynchronous loading for them
