Docastillo Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 ... having a big snapshot problem? 80 % percent of the times I join a game, I have to wait over 5 minutes for my computer to download (?) the snapshot... 2 questions: what is a snapshot? and: can I solve the problem? Any help is greatly appreciated. Other then my question, I would also like to introduce meself. (don't read this if ur not interested ) : I am Thomas Pieterse A.K.A Docastillo, 16 years old, and a light force user I am totally addicted to the online part of this game already! I am a die hard duel player from now on! I hope I get some response, love, Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbiesan Posted May 14, 2002 Share Posted May 14, 2002 That is defeintely too long for a snapshot.. it is most likely the server you are connecting to that is the problem.. if this happens no matter what server you join then you must have a problem with your JK install...

Pedantic Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 Yeah, my snapshot happens almost instanteously...so, I guess there's something wrong there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Jedi Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 I get the same problem, sometimes it takes forever to get past the Awaiting Snapshot part of entering a multiplayer game (and there have been quite a few times where it NEVER gets past, and if I hit esc it'll eventually drop back out to the main menu). I can't decide what the problem is; either its taking forever to get information from all of the players in a server (either the server has a high ping or the players do), or its something on my end that I can't figure out.

Tyrion Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 That you should make sure that you have 620 mb of free space on both of your drives. Right now I think I'm gonna fromat all my drives and put in all the bare essentials, which is Netscape, norton, and, of course, JKII. I want to show a jedi icon battle now cause its cool....

JaledDur Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 Can you post the exact specs of your comp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docastillo Posted May 15, 2002 Author Share Posted May 15, 2002 AMD AHTLON 900 mhz windows ME, geforce 2 mx 128 mb of ram... The lousy thing is, when I try to update to new drivers of my vid. card, it says something is wrong in my regedit, and I have to reboot to put everything back. Which basically means it doesn't update... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
