help with lag please :(
« on: April 29, 2010, 05:14:56 PM »
I have low ping all the time, around 40 - 90.
But, I find myself lagging really bad. I thought it was the server but smasters confirmed he wasnt lagging and everyone said they werent either.
Well, before this started happening, proudly told me to put in this code "-high" in the games library>right click garrymod>properties>set launch options..
Since then garrysmod has been lagging with my low ping..
How do I fix this :(

PLEASE HELP

The longer you play with them, the harder they get.

Check to see if you are not downloading anything, or running virus scan, or any shit like that.

somethings wrong with my gmod.
It's just gmod that lags. not css or zombie panic source.
Just gmod :/

Is it lag or FPS loss?

Well I have 30 - 40 fps while I'm playing.
I dunno what really the average good fps is.

But the gmod update didn't do crap to it.
I'm still lagging.

I also deleted the -high I put in set launch options.
I figured just deleting it would be fine.

Should I just delete my gmod folder?
I'm reluctant in doing so.

I'll resort to that when all else fails.

-high Makes the hl2.exe process on a higher priority.

This can be unsafe because your GPU needs some CPU as well. But when it is set to a higher priority it can use most of your CPU just to compute physics objects, which will take alot of CPU being that Garry's Mod is a CPU hog. All in all dropping the amount of CPU available to your GPU and other things.
