Most everyone knows it I assume, I always kept empires on one core but was advised to not assigned it jsut1 core and when I changed the affinity to all cores that's when the problems occurred. mOOtant suggested changing it back so I did and last night the ones who had the worst issues with audio and lag had none. So I am keeping my fingers crossed that was the whole issue for those who had unplayable lag.
So you changed it from multi-core to single-core, correct? correct I changed from multi core back to assigning empires to 1 core only
the odd thing is cyberkiller told me epic server played poorly when he assigned empires to 1 core and plays better now that he assigned it to all cores. Might have to do with our different server's OS's but I have no idea why there is this difference between our servers.
