Weird lag

[jerrycro]

Hello guys, a few days ago i bought ETS 2 only because MP, i play it so long on SP, and when i saw this community i needed to buy game on steam just to play it with you

 

But i have weird problem, all trucks are lagging, few mins ago guy with 20 ping lagged same as guy with 350 ms ping so its kinda weird for me. i have good connection (25-40 ms max) and its so unplayable when all these truckers are lagging. and one more question, does all guys drive in the middle of streets or its caused by de-sync ?

 

happy holidays from jerry!

 

btw - i dont have any DLC, only stock ETS2 game

Hi there,

 

It may be to do with your PC specs, if not it is your internet connection causing this.

 

Also you do get alot of drivers in the middle of the road but this could be de-sync depending on your network connection.

 

Hope this helps.

This can also be caused by driving in cities with many people.

If your game runs smoothly (eg, your fps is 20 or above), and ALL other trucks you can see are lagging from a same time and freeze for a same amount of time, then your problem should be caused by packet loss. There's no complete solutions to this problem: getting some European-based VPN can make things better.

 

If your game lags (eg. fps goes to 10 or below), you may consider turn down your graphic settings or upgrade your PC.

My game runs smoothly about 30-40fps (ok, in europort where is 100 trucks fps is 20 ) but trucks lagging constantly, its not important there is 1 on 20, they all lag. hmm, my internet connection is 30mbps/10 mbps :/ i will try to contact my ISP

I would suggest you to

1. Clean up your pc cache by using Clean Master for PC or CCleaner , Both clean up temprorary files on your PC. Temp files are known to hog internet. 

2. Also do a DNS flush, A guide on how to do this → http://www.wikihow.com/Flush-DNS

3. Restart your wifi/internet, All it needs to reduce a ping lag is internet cache to be cleared.

I play with the settings in the MP (TAB settings) and disable steering animation for other players -> and fix lag of other trucks, only those 400+ ms lagging but that is because of their high ping, thanks all for help
