Since the last big update, the minimal requirements to make this game run have increased a lot. Since my computer isn't that powerfull, I wanted to know which settings I have to modify to increase fluidity in-game?

My laptop is not exactly a gaming engine either, but when I set it like this, PS runs okay:
- Anti-Aliasing, Anisotropic Filtering, Shadows, Bloom, HDR, VBO, Loader Cache: all OFF
- Color Depth 32, Particles Shaders Medium (experiment wiht the shaders, sometimes "low" is worse then "medium" for some strange reasons.
- I have texture to "high" but turning them lower will also give a performance boost
- Weather: just try if your system can handle it. Some crash.
And when you get a high fps hit Hydlaa, look at the floor. ;)
Hope this helps a bit.
(You could also turn your settings way down until you are satisfied and then increase them one after one until you identify what helps most.)
Best,
Minks

Not sure for other people, but having graphics settings on medium, cuases me less lag, then on low, or high

So true… and made ma laugh ;D
Also, try removing (not deleting) your spell effects folder from your PS directory. It's on PlaneShift/data/effects/spells
Remember only remove, not delete: backup the folder somewhere :)

i've been experimenting with graphic settings lately. right now i have everything on low except for shaders on medium, and i am practically lag free (unless i'm in a crowded area. I was hanging around harny's the other day and so were about 40 other people and that was the laggiest i've been in over a week. the look at the ground trick does help with lag, but it didn't help in that situation when i couldn't see who was talking to me) ::|

if you can accept some black areas you can also switch to rlcompat as render manager (the 0.4 renderer but which has some bugs)
