Title: Reducing Lag...
Post by: mortagen on January 03, 2008, 06:36:08 pm: Hi,

i have lag in some areas of yliakum (how do i pronounce this?) especially the plaza! How can i reduce this? i asked someone and they said it is a problem with the graphics engine and he hopes it will be fixed in an upcoming release... and to in the meantime download the maps for 0.18... if this will help, where can i find the maps for 0.18... and is this where they are stored?

C:\Program Files\PlaneShift Crystal Blue\art\world

Thanks alot! :)

Regards, Mortagen

Any idea when a release of Planeshift with lag-free grass maps will be released... and if it will? ???

Thanks!

Regards, Mortagen!

It's reallly frustrating because I just joined and did the tutorial this morning. I still haven't played because it takes me several minutes just to move a few steps. I still haven't seen the greatness of the game that some people talk about.

Yes you can, through the pssetup program.

Post by: Starfire on January 11, 2008, 08:08:24 pm: i reduced resolution, colours quality, Fps hat to 10, distance to 6, and it works. but the game like this isn't worth playing... I can't even see my character since the distance is 6 and the camera is farther...

and as soon as i enter a room such as the one near spawn point, i got blocked for a few mins, with my CPU running at 99% or about...
and i have a laptop with a GB RAM and a recent Nvidia graphics!!!

really frustrating.
perhaps i'll wait for next version and hope for lag solutions... CPU charge is too high!

bye all
