<div class="IPBDescription">(not consol spam)</div> PC specs:

2.4 ghz p4
512 DDR P2100 RAM
Geforce 4 mx 440
ADSL connection (Bandwithd test show it at 1.1-1.4 MB/s, Pings 50-130 no spikes)
**ALL** HL mods through steam

My FPS, my ping ect are all stable and well with in reason. For some reason my choke is spiking when every get into figths, move ect. The choke makes my player hang, I cant aim, often times the gun continues firing after I let go off the trigger.

If anyone can help me with this.

simply "rate 9000" in console seemed to do it for me.. join a server, wait till it chokes, type rate then add 1000 to that and type rate (current+1000) keep doing this until the choke disappears, then go back by 500.. if it reappears go up to 750 if not, go to 250 lemme give you an example

>rate
rate is "4000"
> rate 5000
rate is "5000" //Choke is still 20+ here
> rate 6000
rate is "6000" //Choke is around 10
> rate 7000
rate is "7000" //Choke is about 3
> rate 8000
rate is "8000" //Choke is 0
>rate 7500
rate is "7500" //Choke is still 0
> rate 7250
rate is "7250" //Choke is still 0, but if it goes up, goto 7500

Thanks! I need some tweaking but it totally brought it down to reasonable levels!
