Title: Lag
Post by: SavageMan13 on April 10, 2004, 06:32:49 am

I played the game for the first time today but the whole time i played i couldn\'t move. I was wondering if their is always so much lag or is it a bug? I have optimum ONline but it still is extremely slow.

Posting your computer and connections specs would give us a clue what the source of the lag might be.

Not everyone knows the specs of a Hp pavilion mx75... well, I don\'t at least. :D Please be more specific. CPU speed, RAM amount...?

So your computer consists of just 512mb ram... interesting.... *cough*
But seriously... couldn\'t you be a bit more specific? We  need  to  know:

- CPU (pentium 4 2.0, athlon xp 2500+, etc.)
- RAM (ok, we  know  it)
- GFX card (radeon 9600, geforce fx 5200, etc)
- OS (windows,  linux, etc)

This would  be the minimum to help you properly. Oh, and btw:  are you running in OpenGL  or software  mode?

Just click on start/run and enter \"dxdiag\" (without the quotes) in the dialog  box. Click on OK and watch the directx diagnostic utility  to start up. Then post the information given there.

I didn\'t meant it bad but... ofcourse you will need a graphic card... what graphic card do you have?

Umm, I don\'t think it was a  joke... he was simply  asking if we need to know  his gfx card :P
BTW:  I\'m still waiting for his info
