Delphi

Those settings control general data flow between you and the server.

Too little, and you lag behind with packetloss and choke, since you're not getting enough updates.

Too much, and your 56k modem is overwhelmed by the massive amounts of data, and you lose a lot of it.. making you warp around.

Try setting your connection speed in steam to what it ACTUALLY is.. You know, not what you think you're getting (T1 >1mb), but what you can actually get (28.8, 14.4.. whatever)

just write this into your userconfig:
<!--c1--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->rate 25000
cl_cmdrate 101
cl_updaterate 101<!--c2--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->
this should solve your connection problems.

other settings that should not be left out are (put these into the userconfig too)<!--c1--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->ex_interp 0
m_filter 0<!--c2--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->
ex_interp 0 sets interp appropriatly to your connection settings. you don't want interpolation for 100 ms when you have only a 30 ms ping.

m_filter 0 removes the mouse filter which smoothes your mouse movement... not very handy if you want to aim properly.

i use m-speed while gaming for cable boosting, i dunno if it works but it will do something <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

to write this in console u mean?

rockst4r

yes and no. you could write them into your console everytime you want to play, but if you put them into your config/userconfig they will be executed everytime you play without any work to be done.

you have a config.cfg and a userconfig.cfg they are both executed, but the userconfig will not be edited bei steam/hl. where entries in the config.cfg may be overwritten if it is not write protected.

if there is no userconfig.cfg in your base folder, create one and put these lines into it.
