In recent races I noticed that some cars were rather jumpy. When I checked replays from various sources, I could safely say the problem was not on my end, but on these jumpy cars drivers' end Now I had experienced only recently to have a jumpy car on my own at some events. Took me quite a while to figure what the cause was: I had installed anit-virus software. and though that software ran in "gaming" mode, it caused my car to show up jumpy on other people's screen in Heat online races - on a great 16 MBit DSL line ! Deactivating that anti-virus software didn't seem to work, so I deinstalled it. Since then, no jumpy car anymore. At least not mine.... So could pls those of you that experience a rather jumpy field in the races check for what kind of software uses internet bandwidth on the background of your PC/OS and if possible make sure it doesn't do during online races (firewall, anti-virus filter, ...)? That would decrease risk of getting into incidents BIG time . For all of us  Thanks in advance |

I know in first race it was pretty much ok, but everyone I saw in 2nd half of 2nd race was jumping like mad.
I thought the problem was on my end, but asked in post race chat and people told me I wasnt specially jumpy, so that makes me wonder as well what happened.

Everything was fine here, but UCR was a bit jumpy on that one hill, but he also said he is running on what is called a "4g network" might play an affect here, but it isnt in the turns..

the thing is, it doesn't feel like my car is doing that, because if it were, i don't think i could drive it. Sometimes it looked like the cars were galloping.

Normally when someone see's warping or jumpy cars it's NOT normally there connection.. A buddy of mine use to race on 3G network before he upgraded to cable and his connection was okay with small fields of cars online. Ucrdoh, next time were online for some practicing let's do some self diagnostic testing on your end.  |

By comparing replays, the ones that showed somewhat jumpy on all of these at Oulton Park have only been ucrdoh, Ron and Chris. Wasn't that bad that it could be called a critical issue, but might be a good idea if you could check on your end what might be the reason
Especially Chris and Ron I know had no such problems in previous series, so perhaps there might have been some change on their end that could be the cause

So either my car is jumpy too or it is something else that causes Chris'car to be jumpy.. cheers, Triz |

Actually Chris' car was even jumpy on your replay Made me guess that the cause could be similar to what problem I had with that anti-virus software |

It could be something related to Chris' PC rather than your shared line. We know of antivirus software, ghosts enabled and gcfs, but any program using the net can cause trouble |

So it seems, if it were the case that my car was also jumping around, then there would be a different problem. One with the line, since Chris and I both race on the same line. Alright well i guess he'll figure it out anyway. It's good to know this is happening so we can take care of it before the next race  cheers, Triz |
