Alastria Report post Posted January 24, 2004 I get a LOT of lag, too...(plus, I can't see my monitor at night time, and I have it turned up as bright as it will go)... I get down to about 1-5 most of the time...all my pings are only in the 260's... Isn't there more we can turn off besides clouds, shadows, and reflections that aren't really viable to a person's playing experience?? I mean, the rain is kewl...it looks kewl, it sounds kewl...but I don't feel like playing in the desert all the time just to escape the rain...that seems to lag me down a lot (though, not as much as people summoning near storage or at beam).. I mean, it's great the game still plays at 1FPS, but barely...I end up resyncing with the server A LOT... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted January 24, 2004 1 FPS? that sucks... What video card do you have? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ravana Report post Posted January 24, 2004 I have the same problem but a bit worse... i get a constant 0 fps I use Dialup Live in North Florida and use ATI Rage ( I think the games having trouble detecting my vidiocard ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Puntif Report post Posted January 24, 2004 I started playing this game at 1-3 fps (Linux with ATI Rage) but that was without the video drivers that support hardware acceleration. The game plays much better (and looks much nicer) with the hardware accelerated video drivers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ravana Report post Posted January 25, 2004 I dont know how to set it up :... I dont have much experience in this field at all I suppose I can try and figure it out Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted January 25, 2004 Try to get the proper drivers... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yfel Report post Posted January 25, 2004 check who makes your drivers and look at the offical website for any updates on your drivers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted January 25, 2004 If you have an ATI card, go on the ati's site www.ati.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alastria Report post Posted January 25, 2004 M'kay, I know we have the correct drivers installed for mine, updated and everything because we (Jakuren and I) reformatted my computer not too long ago when I bought another harddrive... but my video card is: NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 Model 64 Pro on a Samsung SyncMaster 570V TFT flatscreen monitor... Now the monitor has some weird drivers w/ it that I only have 2 options for screen resolution, either 1024 by 768 or 800 by 600...and like I said, the viewing angles for my monitor sucks where I can't see anything when the game gets dark... Either way, that's my info on my stuff... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted January 28, 2004 some body help me the frame rates on my game are extremely slow why is that?! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tropicano Report post Posted January 28, 2004 yup, and once there you will have todownload a 20mb or so big file including all of the graphic drivers for all ati cards. click on drivers once you get to that site. That should help you, and your card should support opengl without any big problems if im not totally wrong.. hope you get it to work m8! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sativa Report post Posted January 28, 2004 Alastria our video thingy is made by the same company. Here's what I've done; went to start, settings, control panel, clicked display, clicked settings, clicked advanced, clicked Vanta, clicked color correction and adjusted the brightness. I do this everytime I restart my comp or I just can't see the game even in the day time. Also on one of the comps I set the color to 16 bit high color and made sure the game was also set to that. It made it run a lot faster. Good luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
