got a real important q for ALL of you... have u ever seen this:

http://brolly54.homestead.com/files/SelvinTop10.jpg

no no.. not "selving kicking ass"... look @ the ping... not the number, but the color: green

what does it mean ?? many things... (i wont get too technical here) but it may also mean that u'll experience a lot less lag in the game...

this is a brand new "feature" of the net-code (implemented in 0.2p)... so, if you DO see the green-ping, there is someting you can do to help me out

1: if you can, find out if the person is using "old connection mode" (either you can have it "on" or the other person)... if this is the case... it doesn't matter what color is the ping... dont report this game...

2: if however, u are both NOT using "old connection mode" or the "firewall" checkbox in the options menu, do look @ the number... and how smooth/fast the game feels (does it seem like there is less lag ??)

3: if it does, or even if it doesn't, run back here... and report it in this thread (just, dont post info on u'r 60 matches or anyfin crazy like that, 1-3 posts MAX per person) ...

and don't worry... u don't really need to ask the person if they are using old-con mode... i mean, if u play 60 games, and u notice that half of them have green ping, and half of those have a LOT less lag... thats all the info i'm looking for... :biggrin:

btw TMYapp, that isnt selvin kicking ass, thats me kicking his ass:biggrin: also, if you look at my results for the fight youll see under my name that theres a cherry and an S for the special, whats the cherry for?????

i saw that once when i was challenging someone else. I either had the mode on slow connection with high or low compenstation or i didnt set the thing at all. It just appeared for some reason.

http://brolly54.homestead.com/files/GreenPing.jpg Well it didn't work here vs. PROfe&#36&#36er. It lagged. He hosted. I am really confused aboutt hat jumping thing though.

Nice to see you put yourself in the spotlight when I won the match Selvin. Dam clans...

The super gave him a chance to even grab the image without letting himself get pummeled as he reached for the keys/mouse (whichever WinGrab uses).

Doesn't it look like PROfe&#36&#36or's head just exploded??

Yeah, it does actually.

yeah... thats great.. but lets keep this thread STRICTLY green-ping related... :biggrin:

TMyApp I have started hosting alot of matches and what i notice is that more and more of them have the green ping. I remember the mode now that i put it in. It was no error correction and high lag compenstation with no slow nor old mode. The green ping does speed up your game like you said. Even when i host a person who is going to put the mode on normal I still find it to be less laggy then yellow ping. My ping ranged from 200-700 on the green ping.
