Decreasing Lag
This guide will tell you how to decrease lag in the fps game Crossfire.
When you lag a lot, three things maybe at fault; your internet, your computer, or your location.
Computer:
1. You don't meet the requirements. Make sure you have a good graphics card, a good amount of memory, and a good processor. This game is very memory intensive, and especially when you're hacking you might get a memory leak, thus slowing down your game.
2. Don't have too many things running in the background that you don't need. Use game booster to solve that, Game Booster | Faster Play, Free Download | Free Game Accelerator Downloadⓘ
3. If you have vista, i would reccomend turning off aero temporarily. It uses too much memory than needed and will cause lag.
to disable aero, go to desktop, right click on personalise,do windows color and appearance option, yo can disable transparency or go to classic appearance options. Do anything other than aero. IF you want to keep aero, then just right click on your crossfire shortuct, do properties, compatibilty, and tick disable dekstop compisition. It will disable aero while u play crossfire or any game and then turn aero back on when your done.
Internet:
1. Get better internet, if your current one lags you alot.
2. Make sure your not playing on wireless, that may also lag you, its better to play on a desktop.
3. If you have more than one person playing on your connection, wait till their done or tell them to GTFO.
Location:
1. Move to canada to get the best connection or to the west coast of America, because thats where the 2 servers are located.
