[Tutorial] Ping reduction - Printable Version

Code:

=> Before you begin, create a restore point ( http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/create-a-restore-point ) 



IF, you are using a lot of background applications while playing disco (in example skype, browser, &nstuff) then ( http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/change-virtual-memory-size#1TC=windows-7 ) increase your virtual memory to a maximum of 4 GB. Not more

else you can skip that



IF, you should be on a computer with only 2 GB or less memory then ( http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=34392&d=1269231650 )

    That links directly to the file, so it will download automatically. Unzip and open up the executable. Once you've opened it up, follow the steps. 

    Step 1 - select the Freelancer ( not dslauncher.. ) executable (.exe). 

           Step 2 - check the check box

                  Step 3 - Save changes.



IF, your fps do just suck .. then ( http://www.razerzone.com/cortex/game-booster )

    Let the boost settings be, they are good currently.

    Download & Install it

    - Boost system, you cannot add freelancer.exe as DSLauncher has to run it... ( alleys work 8| ) also adding DSLauncher there is useless

      just boost your overall system



IF, your CPU is very slow/bad then ( http://www.coderbag.com/Uploads/Unpark-CPU-App.zip )

    Again it's a direct download link, unzip and install

    It will keep all your cores ready for use and won't let them go into running-idle

    Basically keeps all cores on 100 % always, overall it should be just fine but you should

    probably take care when using this on a laptop/mobile device. It might affect temperatures

    a bit keep an eye on that.



    These changes can be easily reverted with the same app if u desire to do so



IF, your latency is high, well then ( http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/download13581-LeatrixLatencyFix )

    Direct-Download



    Improves latency - run app and press 'Install' probably run as administrator

Code:

Weak CPUs might profit from changing sound channels from 32 to 16 in sound settings.



You could as well disable your AV while playing to improve the overall gameplay

Code:

Quality of Service (QoS) for networks is an industry-wide set of standards and mechanisms for ensuring high-quality performance for critical applications. By using QoS mechanisms, network administrators can use existing resources efficiently and ensure the required level of service without reactively expanding or over-provisioning their networks.

Code:

- Log into your fritzbox router @( 192.168.178.1 )

- Switch to the "Internet" tab

- There you will find a small tab on top called [s]"Joe is awesome"[/s] [b]"Prioritize"[/b]

- Choose a device and an application ( probably the device you are playing/working on and every application, in your case )
