  • White/blackscreen bug, Timeouts...

Hi.

I had multiple issues with NF in the last days, however I came across a tool that
fixed it for me.

The problems included:

-the login-process timing out
-often getting "connection lost"errors , during games, in the harbor and at the login
screen
-blackscreen-freeze while loading
-whitescreen-freeze when the view shifts to the port at the start
-being unable to control the ship ingame

Those were all fixed for me with this program but I would like to get it tested by
more people.

If you are willing to try something on your own risk then please follow this and
report back:

Go to

http://www.speedguide.net/downloads.php

Please download the tool called "TCP Optimizer".

To use it, first select the network adapter you use and then your connection speed
by using the top slider.

Then go to FILE and create a backup of your current settings.

Then select "OPTIMAL SETTINGS" in the lower right of the "GENERAL SETTINGS" tab.

Click "APPLY CHANGES" and restart your PC.

Now check NF if the problems were solved and PLEASE REPORT BACK HERE!

Also please check if you have NetLimiter installed. If you have it installed please
uninstall it! It is causing problems with NF!
Thank you very much for your attention.

ANY POST NOT RELATED TO THIS PROGRAM WILL BE DELETED!!!

I want to keep this clean.

It's probably a software issue on your other computer. Try the steps I suggested as well
as the two stickys about this issue ("Common Problems + Fixes" and "NF Lag Solutions") for
more information, then post a new topic and let me know how it went please.

I'm downloading NF to my fathers computer and i'll see now is it on MY computer the
problem or is it global.I'll keep you informed.

Edit:Works fine in my father's computer...Must be my new internet connection that
sucks.

1) Try the "DEP" fix in the "Common Problems + Fixes" sticky. (Hit Ctrl + F then "DEP" to
find it quickly.)

2) Try running Navy Field in "Windows 2000" compatibility mode if you're on Windows XP or
in "Windows XP" compatibility mode if you're on Windows Vista.

3) If these two steps failed, try to uninstall Ares and see if that solves your problem.

Hey,i was wondering,is there any known reports that NF would conflict with Ares download
program?I installed it some time ago.

Edit:I don't think it's my RAM since my computer can play very heavy games without problems.

Edit2:I don't even have that Offload_Checksum option when i tried it.Is there any other
choises that can help?

1) If you've always had this issue, it could be RAM, weird network/router settings, or
some other culprit.

2) If you've just had this issue in the past few days, it's the server as tons of Arizona
players are reporting lag spikes there.

I have done all that but nothing.I don't have LimeWire installed since it brings too much
virus to my computer.And i have no idea what is NetLimiter.

kirkasaatana:

Try the "DEP" fix in the "Common Problems" sticky and the "Offload Checksum" fix in the
"NF Lag Solutions" sticky. Also make sure you don't have LimeWire or NetLimiter installed
on your computer.

Only thing that program gave me is massive lag and i think it's because i put in wrong
connection speed,but how can i find out the speed?I have no idea what it is.


Edit:I found my speed but the program didn't help.Still connection lost to the server.
