Subject: Re: [EverQuest] Lag in zones


It's graphics in certain spots that do it. The gates/militia house area of FP is one, and the ramp of MM is another. The platform by zone at the top is lagless, as is the bottom, but the ramp itself...major lag. It's gotta be a code issue, the video card I have is one of the best.

I have an AMD Athlon 1.4Ghz processor, Nvidia GeForce 2 MX 64Mb with TV out,
Philips PSC706 Acoustic Edge 5.1 sound card, and 1.2Gb of RAM.
I haven't been into Rivervale since upgrading my RAM but I still experience
lag in other zones. Sometimes lag spikes hit and I go almost LD 5 times
before the lag stops and I can continue. But that usually coincides with a
couple of my group members actually going LD so I'm pretty sure it is a
server side problem. I will take a character to Rivervale later and check it
out.
luv,
