Could have searched for it....

This topic is old. I know that now, I was new to the whole interface of the forum and all at the time this was made. I search for most things now.

IAfter this I noticed a major difference in my hit registration. Although these settings may work for me, they may not work for you. If they don't please PM me and I'll send you a different set of lines to try.
I can't stress this enough though, it is extremely important thing that you  set your latency (ping) in the server that your on.
You do this by pressing the tilde (~) in-game on a multi player server. I suggest writing this down. You type the following code into the console screen that pops up after hitting tilde in-game.

Code:

SettingsManager.floatSet GSDefaultLatencyCompensation 0.050

do you have to do this every time you connect to a server?

No, but yes. It's hard to explain. Every server you join you have a different ping. Therefore, it isn't effective for you to change the file outside of the game by going to the con file. For example, you change your ping to .05500. Start BF2, join the server with that ping, leave the server then join a different server, chances are that server will have a different ping like 65 ms (.06500). That's why it's better to just change it in the server using the tilde (~).
Also, Adamshannon's links are useful. He's posted a link to a topic with settings some pros use. Feel free to try those. That's kind of why I stopped updating this.

Thank you for taking the time to post this. I am very interested because I, too, unload a clip on someone, a whole magazine, and they kill me with one shot. It is frustrating, anyways, I have two questions. I'm a little confused with the whole ping thing, after I join any server I do the tilde (~) and enter the command. Now, as the person asked before me, this is before any server correct? And the other question, I'm assuming I would have to back up my config files before messing with this right? Thanks again for your time! Keep up the good work!

I wouldn't put much hope in this stuff myself, but your choice...

Looks like the file is either read-only, or your windows account doesn't have sufficient access...as it's Vista I can't help much, but try right-clicking on the file and select 'properties', then make sure the 'read-only' box is not checked...that's what I would do in win XP. Hope this helps

Close thread.

I'm a simple man, But I'm disillusioned with the game, when i mostly ''as put'' empty a mag on a player , and miss Only to be shot back at with a one shot kill on me...!!

This is - without a doubt - cheating.  Modifying your game to give you an advantage that is not enjoyed by the rest of the community is a violation of the ROE:

3.1 Use of Cheats or Hacks

3.1.1 Players may not change (hack) any core games files or effectively change game settings by employing external programs or cheats for the purposes of giving themselves an unfair advantage over other players.

You are without a doubt the biggest idiot ever.

Client configuration files are not core game files, no 3rd party game hacks are being employed to alter them and these are exempt from the bullshit ROE.
