We have an 10 Mbps Ethernet network in our office, running P100's each with 32 MB RAM and we find that when we play Quake at any vid_mode, the gameplay is smooth as silk, the lag time is probably 10 ms. But I have watched both screens while others were playing network and someone would fire the lightning gun with Quad on someone, and I would see the blood flow out of the person (on the screen of the person firing) and on the other screen the player was not taking damage. We've also witnessed rockets fire right through someone at close range. So I don't think that these problems of people seeing one thing and another actually happening is due to lag. John
