Reply to Why is it I can connect to players perfectly fine in the lobby with nice pings, but when game starts its a lagfest? in Demigod Technical Support Demigod Forums

[quote who="XSive_Death" reply="10" id="2199005"]Just to clarify...Protocepts problem was -never- the spiking issue, it was simply not enough bandwidth from the beginning (he had a max of around 13KB/s too low for the game to handle more than 2/3 players).[/quote]Err, insufficient bandwidth results in ping spikes too ;).

Reply to Cannot connect to a NAT facilitator in Demigod Technical Support Demigod Forums

You don't need to forward that port. It's just the outgoing port for connecting to the NAT facilitator. Also, not using ImpulseReactorOptions shouldn't affect the connection with the NAT facilitator. Unless you defined something like 6001 - 6020.

Reply to So, what is an acceptable ping? in Demigod Demigod Forums

[quote who="VyperXXX" reply="6" id="2197805"]anything over 150 begins pushing it. 50-150 = Normal game, no lag, enjoyable 150-200 = Playable with mild stutters/freezes 250+ = Frequent Lag/Freeze, major stuttering, unenjoyable play People keep perpetuating the myth that 350 is fine because the game uses a net lag of 350, but it is simply not true. I suspect these are people who have high pings in game.[/quote]Do no listen to him.

Reply to Star Trek **SPOILERS** in Everything Else Demigod Forums

Nicely done. 8/10 from me. Positive - The Story: It was clear from the beginning, that this movie is made as a relaunch of the Star Trek Franchise, so that the old films and series do not have to be taken under consideration anymore, or at least not completely. It wasn't clear how it was done. The f

@Denominus: I have no access to the Routermodem, so I wouldn't be able to check that. But I'm pretty sure that there is no transparent proxy involved (otherwise I would have trouble with other games too probably). Also I know from my ISP that the Routermodem is simply forwarding the traffic to one IP in its LAN (= DMZ).

The manual is also located in the Demigod\bin directory. But selling and dropping items is not mentioned in the manual. They are only explained via tooltips in the game.

Reply to HP & Mana Number Values in Demigod Demigod Forums

No, the minimized window does not show the health and mana stats. But I agree, it would be helpful to let the current mana/health status show in number the whole time, on demand by the press of a button for example. Related to that, it would also be helpful to show the mana requirements for each ability on demand the whole time.

[quote who="Denominus" reply="21" id="2191205"]A large part of this is that internet security has increased in recent years.
