Reducing Lag...

[mortagen]

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

Worked great! 

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

Thanks!

Regards, Mortagen!

Soon (tm).  Blame lighter2 and all the other things that take up unnecessarily large amounts of memory.

I just tried replacing the files to get rid of the lag but it hasn't made things better. 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.

Can you reduce the resolution that the game runs at (to 800x600) or are you already at 800x600???

Yes you can, through the pssetup program.

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

Of course you can't see your character... You set your distance to 6. When the distance from your character is higher than that number, you won't be able to see him/her. <.<

raa, they already knew that.

Really? I couldn't tell.
