Time Nudge causing lag: Example: on foot vs vehicle
SOLUTION (This worked once but once BF2042 updated, it didnt work and TimeNudge at 800+ was back):
I used iobit driver booster to list out all my drivers to see if any drivers or software distributions were old. I have an intel CPU so the issues other were saying about AMD cpu's and Time Nudge did not meet my same situation. I did also update some of the intel drivers for rare HD/CPU/Memory bus items just to be sure. I also used Ccleaner's driver updater function to find more obscure drivers to update. I also used Driver Talent (which seemed to be very helpful too) to get updates.
There were a number of packages that were not updating correctly or were different sub versions of an older Visual C++ library. If you just go to Microsoft, you will not find all of these versions. This took a few *hours* to find all these packages since some are old and were quickly replaced by newer versions but once I got them installed, the time nudge went to 5-8ms
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable

For good measure I also installed
Microsoft XNA Framework Redistributable 4.0 Refresh
OpenAL
I also updated my bluetooth drivers, wifi drivers (even though I am on LAN), and Integrated Sensor Solution driver. The Nvidia drivers were already up to date.
I was able to find some of the more rare Redistributable items in a MultiPack Visual C++ Installer 3.0 at MajorGeeks

While is is just my guess - there may be some old network code buried deep inside that references some obscure libraries and as a work around it uses a 2nd non-optimized library. It would be very helpful in the future versions of 2042 that they install and include all the C++ Redistributes so users don't have to go find things at random to patch your own computer, guessing which one is needed b/c some code uses some library in one rare version of C++. The 'latest version' libraries are not all inclusive, and this evenings work showed me that something in the code / driver library list is not what it seems to be. It was not as simple as 'update Microsoft' or 'auto update'.
