Weird CSS lag

So I woke up today with a weird lag problem. The short demo attached shows what I've been getting, as I have no idea what the problem could be. It's not my ping, cause I normally play with the ping I have, and I'm not downloading anything. My rates are fine btw.

 

On my screen, I don't lag at all unless I switch weapons. I can't even play the game (you just lost) now. It's like this on all servers, and some are even worse than SG's.

 

I would greatly appreciate any help / suggestions. Thanks.

Is your computer plugged in?

 

but seriously, if what they said didn't work, you should probably reinstall, or try getting rid of a new map, addon, or mod. also have you checked your console log?

Lag spikes, without having a change on the ping can be solved on the next items,

 

- Cache

- Mod's

- Addons

- Skins

- Defrag

- Background steam update downloader ( includes an automaticly background download of the installed games you downloaded by steam )

 

What do you need to do first,

 

Defrag steam first,

 

If this wont work..

 

Delete your cache

 

still not working, jeeezz siriously issues here...

 

Nah then you'll need to delete all ur downloaded skins,

 

and if this isnt working,

 

Go back to the first Css setting after download ( if you forgot it, just reinstall.. it will be faster )

 

** If you wont want this problems anymore **

 

Siriously defrag css every week, often he gaves an warning that you NEED TO defrag. 90% just press it away cause it takes like 5-10 minutes. Keep an eye open, that you dont download to much custom skins, css need to making data changes on every move you make, cause you arn't replacing the skins, your just overlaying them.

 

And if you having issues on short but heavy lagg spikes, vink ( No, automatic update ) in the game section so steam wont update everything manually without premission.

 

Good luck fighting the lagg spikes, I hope this will help

The first thing I would do is verify the cache, defrag, then run a stress test on the Internet connection (JUST IN CASE)

 

Yeah, already did that.

 

Game Booster or restarting comp :|

 

If only lol.

Yup

Appreciative of the long, detailed post; but I've already done all of that (save for a full reinstall, which I would rather not do if I can avoid it). Looks like I'm going to have to reinstall. I'll report back on if they're still there after I reinstall.

 

P.S. skins are for fags

Hmm, any chance you remember what you did before you went to sleep? Anything that concerned CSS that could of caused the lag? Theres a couple programs that I use to really reduce my CSS lag but they cost :\

 

P.S. Skins are not for fags. :(

Okay I search it up but, the most cases are with the reffered items I said, Can U tell me where you lagg and how you lagg? By this is mean, if you start up Cs:s your lagging in the main screen or just within the servers, and if its in the server is it

 

All server?

One server?

Some Mod Server?

ok well lets start with what your netgraph_3 settings tell you while you are playing? do you see alot of choke? you getting in and out on a 100 tic server of 100?(try a non busy server the busier the worse the tic gets)

 

check your rates

cl_cmdrate 101

cl_updaterate 101

rate 30000

fps_max 200 (or less)

 

then you might want to check and tell me what your cl_interp is set to as well.

 

those numbers can get messed up fairly easily and they will murder your reg and gameplay.
