Thought some of you might find that interesting, especially since Matt was having problems with GetTickCount, and had to convert to something else.

It's good reading but not usefull in a Msource. We always check if the time is more than; but if we would want to use equal to - this would be a good idea :P

And also, I didn't know TickCount was so unprecise :P

Verrigan's method is super precise. Down to the nanoseconds. Lol. It doesn't mess up the system if it loops to a negative number either.

-dbl tickcount
-byte arrays
-iocp sucks.

He was also the very first person to release anything with seamless maps. He didn't finish it though, you had to do the rest yourself. Misunderstood optimized Verrigan's system.

Yeah...timeGetTime had problems for me. I think it was the timeBeginPeriod. When I tried to connect to my game, the loop at ConnectToServer would never finish. So I had to restart. I ended up just using Verrigan's method with GetSysTimeMS. It works beautifully.
