Reliable Channel Overflow Fix Didnt Work For Me

Commando1

<div class="IPBDescription">Don't work for me.</div> When I made a new notepad called userconfig and put in it ex_maxerrordistance to fix my reliable channel overflowing all it did was flood my console saying that ex_maxerrordistance was not a command. Is there a way to get rid of this? I have tried a search. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo--> And it still overflows.

you need to define it to be null. Type the following at the console prompt
<!--QuoteBegin--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->7.1. You may experience an overflow error, or an error relating to the command "ex_maxerrordistance." If you do, add the following line to "userconfig.cfg" in your NS directory (if it is not there, create it):
alias "ex_maxerrordistance" ""<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

right now its trying to call a nonexistant proceedure

make sure its a .cfg not a .txt

What game are you using to run NS? (Counterstrike, Day of Defeat, HalfLife, etc). I had the reliable channel overflow with Day of Defeat, but when i switched over to Counterstrike NS worked fine.

Yeah I just found out that DoD is the source of my lag problem. Perhaps deleting it would help.

or temporarily disabling automatic updates while you're playing NS?

Exit out of steam all the way. If you don't this might not work.

1.) browse to your ns folder

2.) copy "config", then paste it in the same folder

3.) rename "copy of config" to "userconfig"

4.) open "userconfig" using notepad, then delete its contents and add...

alias "ex_maxerrordistance" ""

5.) save changes and start steam again.
