Florian Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Since a few hours I have serious problems maintaining a connection to the game, logging in once I get kicked, or accessing this website, including the forum. Here's a tracert (in german, but you should still get it): Routenverfolgung zu 3dxchat.com [198.105.215.52] über maximal 30 Abschnitte: 1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms alice.box [192.168.1.1] 2 41 ms 31 ms 31 ms 213.191.64.231 3 30 ms 29 ms 30 ms 62.109.70.136 4 30 ms 30 ms 30 ms po21.vr02.fra.de.hansenet.net [62.109.70.5] 5 30 ms 30 ms 30 ms ae0-0-grtfraix4.red.telefonica-wholesale.net [84.16.7.185] 6 43 ms 45 ms 46 ms Te0-4-0-10-grtlontlw1.red.telefonica-wholesale.net [5.53.5.2] 7 114 ms 116 ms 116 ms Xe1-0-4-0-grtnycpt2.red.telefonica-wholesale.net [213.140.36.193] 8 221 ms 186 ms 186 ms Xe1-0-0-0-grtpaopx3.red.telefonica-wholesale.net [94.142.119.53] 9 203 ms 191 ms 184 ms xe-3-1-1.mpr1.pao1.us.above.net [64.125.13.113] 10 199 ms 220 ms 191 ms ae6.cr1.sjc2.us.above.net [64.125.31.45] 11 195 ms 211 ms 213 ms xe-0-3-0.cr1.lax112.us.above.net [64.125.26.25] 12 * * 210 ms ae0.mpr1.slc1.us.above.net [64.125.20.238] 13 * * * Zeitüberschreitung der Anforderung. 14 * * * Zeitüberschreitung der Anforderung. 15 * * * Zeitüberschreitung der Anforderung. 16 * * * Zeitüberschreitung der Anforderung. 17 * * * Zeitüberschreitung der Anforderung. 18 * * * Zeitüberschreitung der Anforderung. 19 * * * Zeitüberschreitung der Anforderung. 20 * * * Zeitüberschreitung der Anforderung. 21 * * * Zeitüberschreitung der Anforderung. 22 * * * Zeitüberschreitung der Anforderung. 23 * * * Zeitüberschreitung der Anforderung. 24 * * * Zeitüberschreitung der Anforderung. 25 * * * Zeitüberschreitung der Anforderung. 26 * * * Zeitüberschreitung der Anforderung. 27 * * 206 ms 3dxchat.com [198.105.215.52] Ablaufverfolgung beendet. I'm no expert but that seems to me like a problem with the 3dxchat server or it's immediate uplink. Edit:I actually got a tracert through without issue this time: Routenverfolgung zu 3dxchat.com [198.105.215.52] über maximal 30 Abschnitte: 1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms alice.box [192.168.1.1] 2 30 ms 31 ms 39 ms 213.191.64.231 3 30 ms 30 ms 30 ms 62.109.70.136 4 30 ms 30 ms 30 ms po21.vr02.fra.de.hansenet.net [62.109.70.5] 5 30 ms 30 ms 30 ms ae0-0-grtfraix4.red.telefonica-wholesale.net [84.16.7.185] 6 45 ms 44 ms 137 ms Xe5-0-0-0-grtnycpt3.red.telefonica-wholesale.net [94.142.117.197] 7 186 ms 118 ms 212 ms Xe1-0-0-0-grtpaopx3.red.telefonica-wholesale.net [94.142.119.53] 8 186 ms 258 ms 185 ms xe-3-1-1.mpr1.pao1.us.above.net [64.125.13.113] 9 192 ms 187 ms 186 ms xe-3-1-1.mpr1.pao1.us.above.net [64.125.13.113] 10 193 ms 194 ms 194 ms xe-0-3-0.cr1.lax112.us.above.net [64.125.26.25] 11 215 ms 211 ms 194 ms xe-0-3-0.cr1.lax112.us.above.net [64.125.26.25] 12 215 ms 208 ms 217 ms ae0.mpr1.slc1.us.above.net [64.125.20.238] 13 207 ms 207 ms 208 ms 208.184.34.186.IPYX-068416-004-ZYO.above.net [208.184.34.186] 14 208 ms 206 ms 206 ms 206.130.126.10.west-datacenter.net [206.130.126.10] 15 204 ms 206 ms 206 ms 3dxchat.com [198.105.215.52] Ablaufverfolgung beendet. It seems steps #13 and #14 were completely unreachable in the above one, so seems they're the issue there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riela Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 There's this topic about it.http://3dxchat.com/forum/index.php?/topic/381-connection-lost-upon-entering-public-areas/ There are quite few people with same problem... me included.Luckily for me it happens only twice a day usually. If it happens too much it seems only workaround is to use VPN for now.Or set fps to 30... some people said that helps too for some wierd reason.

Florian Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 i'm not sure how 30 fps could help as I can't reach the website either in that time, but the VPN might be an idea. When it starts it usually lasts for quite a while. I might be able to log in again after 5 minutes, but I got kicked 2 minutes later again. 5 times in a row then I gave up and did something else for a while. Then it worked again for a couple hours and now I got dropped again. Stopped it now because I'm going to bed anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyZA Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 The 30fps limit has to do with netcode and reports to and from the server. As easy an explanation I can give is that when you control your frames the tick rate of the engine falls below the server tick rate for outbound net traffic and then coincides with your frames per second pushing for example 30 updates a second vs more. It's a slight advantage and disadvantage at the same time as you end up sending less data to the server meaning your connection has more leniency for errors but you register slightly later on the server. I don't know what the tick rate of the 3DX server is but I'm going to guess it's 59.7 which is the average for 60fps based software (Xbox 360 as an example: all the servers have a tick rate of 59.7) So the FPS limiter might help you quite a bit although things may seem sluggish and generally European net connections make the ones here in South Africa look like two tins and a string. In terms if DCs I was having an issue the other day where as I got in I DCd constantly, so I cleaned my registry, uninstalled and reinstalled (on my SSD this time) and also set 3DX to priority traffic in my firewall and Killer NIC management software. Since then DCs have been almost non existent. Sorry for the lengthy technical babble but it comes from studying programming and networking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanyatranny Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 There were mass disconnects all Monday morning (Europe time). It got quite annoying and I eventually just gave up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
