Regarding the fix. I have 5 folders in the registry but every 'IPAddress' has the value of 0.0.0.0. Two of the folders however, have DhcpIpAddress set as my internal IP. How do I know which folder to add the key dword in?

Usually the folder with the MOST stuff is the right one.

Just run that script. Very simple, easy to use, easy to remove etc.

I'm on windows 7 64 bit and I chose the DWORD (32-bit) option and it worked fine.

For a computer/registry nooby such as myself, is this safe?

that TCP fix to reduce latency will probably be extremely useful to lots of people.

Bookmarked this thread in case i run into high latency in the future.

Yes, it's from one of the biggest and most trusted WoW interfaces sites on the internet. All it does is add the stuff to your registry for you. Almost 400,000 people have downloaded it. And it comes with a remover and checker to make sure it's working. Very easy, I just did it myself. Big difference.

Leatrix Latency Fix also has the option for you to DISABLE the registry edits, so its a pretty handy thing to have somewhere on ur comp if you ever decide u want your default settings back.

Thanks R1CH for this thread.

I think blizzard made a mistake when opting for TCP, but they'll surely prove me wrong anytime soon! ^^
Their servers might need a lot more CPU power to deal with the overhead generated from soooo many (established) connections.

Let's hope for the best!
What are you tinkering about?

Why is everyone bashing TCP? Have you ever tried to make SC1 work in a slightly non-trivial NAT setup (e.g. some people playing from inside the LAN having shared external IP and other people playing form outside)? Screw that, really.

Incidentally, I don't quite understand why Blizzard insists on having a fixed worst-case latency value (I remember they mentioned that setting this to 250ms was an overkill). In SC1, this value could be set in-game (low latency, high latency, very high latency). Why cannot it be automatically adjusted during the game to suit both players' connections?

From what I understand, on Win7, TcpAckFrequency is set to 1 by default. For those using Vista, I believe you need to have at least SP1 (or the deployed hotfix) before it will take effect.

Awesome R1CH, so what are the chances that these things get fixed before the end of beta and for all of battle net.

I thought so. Groups not to be named who are trying to run multiplayer without beta keys are having fits getting it to run since they need to decode packets for every troop type and action. If all they had to do was emulate a handoff after which the clients communicated directly with each other they'd have a lot less to do. Their methods and difficulties led me to believe that all communications did indeed go through Blizzard, and R1CH's post bears that out. It was also hinted at earlier in that thread about latency.

No LAN mode here, even if you are on the same physical LAN. I don't see that going over so well. Also I wouldn't count on seeing ICCUP for SC2 any time soon, though if Bnet is good enough who cares. Except one could say that by routing all packets through itself it isn't good enough. We'll see. I certainly haven't noticed any terrible lag issues while playing beta, but I am not very high level.
