hello. I use search button but noone got problem like mine XD

I use win 7 64 bit and have problem when I wana connect for servers and even i want just run q3. When I klik on icon q3 exe or when connect via server spider or when use HLSW program for connection to servers game run after 2-3 min after click. If I want entry to game faster i clik on q3 or server spider or hlsw second time for connect and game run. But after 2-3 min on game q3 open and connect me second time ( from this 1th click) and im double on server XD. It's shit cuz i must minimalize game and off one of connect and res vid. GRYY

I try reinstal all q3, hlsw and nothing.

Re: problem with connection in windows 7 64bit

I get the problem when connecting through the ingame browser, also on single player skirmish.

Hit esc and it starts game quicker, it does for me anyway.

Havent got a clue what it is, but I think it started after updating my vers to 2.2a.

no idea Sad
I also use win 7 64 bit too playing q3 (win 7 32 sucks), but I have NO PROBLEMS Happy
my win 7 64 bit is JUST for q3 and nothing else. just win 7 and a antivirus program - more programs make the system slower Winking

That's sheer nonsense. I'm on a 5 years old Windows XP with hundreds of programs and games installed and this system is as fast as it was the day it was built. Technically speaking, there is absolutely no reason why a system with lots of software would be slower than a system with only a few applications installed.

Nag, so basically it takes a long time for you to load the game?

more programs running make system slower, I think this is what you mean, you gotta remember to put those subtle little adjectives, or its apollo 13 instead of apollo 11 for you Happy

one poignant thought; do you really need to run an antivirus while playing q3? I mean, I've never heard of a virus being caught through q3, but then i suppose if you have a system running win7 it has enough guts to run an AV with no detrimental effects on the games performance.

No, surely that's not what he meant since it's pretty obvious that multiple running programs do have an impact on performance.

About the antivirus, yes I think it makes sense to keep it running since you have other process connected to the internet like services and so on. I would rather suggest to exclude the path of your games for the on-access-scanner. By this the files in your game folder wouldn't be scanned, which could last a bit if it has to scan through thousands of files stored in dozens of pk3s.
