Titch Report post Posted April 5, 2008 (edited) I have a real problem with the new server, which is the fact that it lags so bad i resync every few minutes and can't really move. It is useless to try fighting because by the time you click they have moved to the other side of the room So all i can really do is harvest which isn't very fun. My fps sticks at around 10 often lower and i have every graphics enhancement turned off. Poor man is on etc. but still the lag. I don't know if it is my internet connection because I am in halls of residence but surely it can't be that bad as i ran the old server alright. I did a internet check thingy, but i don't know what it means Bandwidth Place Speed Test 742.25kilobits per second 90.61kilobytes per second 22.559seconds 9:13 PM Sat Apr 05, 2008 When the new server came out I was at a different address over easter so had different connection there and it worked but still a bit laggy. Don't know what I can do to improve game performance and it's all I do in between lessons and I love it so much and would be gutted if I couldn't play it anymore. my system Sony Vaio VGN-AR61M intel core 2 duo - 2.2GHz 2GB - 2048MB memory (ram) Graphics Nvidia Geforce 8400M GT GPU Windows Vista Home Premium 300GB hard drive Running nothing apart from EL and Forum Not sure if you can give me any help or advice but any comments would be much apreciated Thank you very much for your time and the game is brilliant =] Natalie (Titch ingame) Edited April 5, 2008 by Titch Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Learner Report post Posted April 5, 2008 10 FPS with an NV 8400? You need to check about updating your drivers ... I regularly get 100-130 FPS with a 7600. 10FPS on that system is probably the reason you keep resyncing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Titch Report post Posted April 5, 2008 The laptop is brand new and i dont think there are any new drivers as i have looked I have a feeling it is the internet connection, but I have to check. Thanks for the help =] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the help =] Vista is known for having crap drivers and your FPS supports that issue. Work on that ans make sure you don't have anything bogging your system firtst. 90% of these issues under Vista is the drivers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
