Hi,

I changed my ISP this afternoon and since then have a very annoying problem. When i fire a weapon.. ex. Rail. It ALWAYS since to hit like half a cm below the crosshair.

Example - I tried to check what happens when i use zoom and here the difference is almost 1 cm on screen Shock Lets say in DM6 i am in rocket staircase and am zooming. My crosshair is pointing to the area where is the Rocket, but when i fire i always hit the staircase in front of me Sad

Any help is really appreciated. THANKS

Asuran

well, you can try offsetting your crosshair

also, if you are used to the crosshair being on a certain place on your screen, then offset your monitor settings to balance it.

gl with the tweaking.

also i would like to point out that the place where the shot goes is not the place where you see the rail trail.

watch where the "blob" shows up on a wall, its always several pixels higher than the rail trail.

long story short, there is a offset of the rail trail, so that it looks like it comes out of the weapon.

Well i used to have Cg_crosshair X / Y = 0. While playing Doctor told me to maybe tweak this.. it seeme to help a bit for that one game.. then it started to look like i was hitting someone but nothing happened Sad

Olso just wanted to point that i changed nothing, didnt go to any server where i could have downloaded crap.. Just changed the isp and since then this shit. Also need to point that my ping on the same servers seem to be a bit higher. Used to have 64 on Beers before.. and now i have close to 80...
The connection speed is the same.... 4 mbps.

higher ping means you see your rail shot later.
