Threetall Posted April 15, 2002 Share Posted April 15, 2002 Do you have the correct connection speed setting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AAFFEE Posted April 15, 2002 Share Posted April 15, 2002 I've got the same problem, and I know its not my connection all other online games and what not run fine. I'd love some help with this I really wanna play in in MP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threetall Posted April 15, 2002 Share Posted April 15, 2002 On one of the start up screens for MP there is an option to adjust the game to your connection speed. Choices like cable, dsl 56k, t-1 and lan. These basically adjust packet size, among other things Is yours set correctly? A packet built for a cable connection may have trouble getting thru a 56k connection. Golf ball thru a straw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threetall Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Sadly there has been no solution from Raven or LA for any problem reported here. You must rely on this forum that way it doesnt cut into profits to staff a support site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiigara Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 This isnt your average... "when i throw my saber the sound glitches" ... We're talking about a major problem that a lot of people are having, not allowing them to play 50% of the game Is there a higher power i can report this too? i'd rather not call an expensive help line. I'll end up taking the game back to the shop with screenshots of all the fuxin errors i've been gettting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AAFFEE Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 I've contacted tech support and by their request sent them an e-mail of deatiled info of my setup as well as an error I'm getting after lvl 2 finishes. Unfortunatly I can't use 100% of the game haha. Cause that error keeps me from going past lvl 2 and the tech support guys say they've never even heard of the error I'm getting. In any case if I can actually get a reply from the tech support guys on the CL Packet errors I'll post it here in hops it will help everyone else.

Lord Nodata Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 the CL_Parsepacket error comes from using the no-cd crack...plain and simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AAFFEE Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 Eh no sorry thats wrong it dosn't only come from the no cd crack. I bought the game, and installed it with NO mods or cheats of any kind. And I got this same error on a cable connection. I have talked to tech support and they suggested changing to selective startup uninstalling and reinstalling the game. I did this then went back to normal start up and I no long got the CL packet error. However I now get a Windows error if I even try to play Single Player so now I can only use Multiplayer. And on top of that on occasion Multiplayer crashes with a Bogus DHT Counts error. In any case I hope this helps some of the people with the CL error. If you don't know how to chage to selective startup click on start go to run type in msconfig and on the general tab click on selective startup then apply. You'll have to restart for it to take effect. If your already running in selective startup like I was uninstall the game change to normal restart reinstall the game ang go, thats what worked for me. BTW I'm running the game on XP Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Nodata Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 Well what I think the error comes from actually is poor memory management in the game. The No-cd crack runs the game by bypassing mem requirements (and it looks like crap with the no-cd crack). So if you're getting this error, make SURE you're not running any other programs in the background. Also, you can goto your jk2mpconfig.cfg file and add this: seta_com hunkmegs 64 or something like that....do a search for "com hunkmegs" and "quake 3" in google and you'll find info on increasing the games available memory. Hope that helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screwtinizer Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 As it says earlier in the thread : people not using the noCD (like me) crack are getting the same errors. Tried the hunkmegs thing anyway, and if anything it made it slightly worse :-( How 'bout we get people to post their NIC and connection details? see if a pattern emerges. (mine) Realtek 8139 NIC, Blueyonder connection, WinXP home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
couicoui Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 i got the same problem too. and i see on quake 3 forum that it could be my network card: realtek 8190 i hope this problem can be fix with the next patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
