Topic: Game is completely unplayable

Hi, I downloaded Teeworlds about a month ago, and I had absolutely no problems playing it. Today, however, I tried to play it, but it was completely unplayable. Most of the servers showed up as negative IP addresses (EX. -106.105.102.96) with 999 ping and 0/0 users. It also takes a long time for the server list to show up. When I join a server, it connects, and I am put into gameplay, but there is a huge delay from when I press a key and see an action, and my player jumps around erratically. There is also a delay for shooting, but there isn't any delay for aiming my gun. I can see other players moving around (and killing me) flawlessly. I don't ever remember updating it, but that shouldn't be a problem, right? It might have updated automatically, anyway. I've restarted my computer and deleted Teeworlds' configuration files, and I've played around with the settings a bit. Nothing seems to work. I've even plugged my computer into a wired internet connection instead of using a wireless connection.

I don't have any other internet-related problems, except for Thunderbird refusing to send mail the first 20 or so times I try to send a message on some internet connections, and on some internet connections, it doesn't send at all.

My system: HP Mini 110-1118CA. 1.66GHz Intel Atom processor, 1GB RAM
OS: GNU/Linux
Kernel release: 2.6.35-22-generic
Kernel version: #33-Ubuntu SMP Sun Sep 19 20:34:50 UTC 2010

Re: Game is completely unplayable

Try opening a terminal and executing the following commands:
# sudo apt-get update
# sudo jockey-gtk

Do you see any video card driver in the window that appeared? If yes, enable it and reboot your system.

Re: Game is completely unplayable

Hello!

I am using Windows 7 (ultimate) and having the same problem.

My sistem: Intel i5 660 - 3,5Gb RAM


Could it be a Router problem? I am not using wireless connection and the internet seems to work pretty fine.

Thanks for any help smile

Go to http://www.sapphiretech.com/presentation/?lid=1 and click "Download" in the menu. Select your video card, download and install the driver.
