Title: Way(s) to minimize lag? Post by: MacofMacs on July 28, 2012, 12:16:34 am I have 16gigs of ddr3 1666mhz memory, 1 MSI 560GTX-TI overlock Twin-frozr II video card, a amd fx-6100 "bull-dozer" 6-core 3.3 ghz processor and a 2 tb hard drive.
I have set all my settings to the lowest possible on Everquest and for some reason when I load 12 toons and start killing bosses I get choppy lag even with spell particles off. Anyone got some advice please? Title: Re: Way(s) to minimize lag? Post by: Natedog on July 28, 2012, 12:33:31 am http://ezserver.online/forums/index.php?topic=2988.0
Next time I'd suggest the search feature! :P With your machine and the settings in the post I'm guessing you could easily 20+ Box.. if you wanted to.. I wouldn't suggest that many though. Gets very annoying boxing anything over 12 IMO Title: Re: Way(s) to minimize lag? Post by: Griz on July 28, 2012, 01:00:33 am Try running /viewport 1 1 1 1 on all your boxes
You can reset it by doing /viewport reset Title: Re: Way(s) to minimize lag? Post by: MacofMacs on July 28, 2012, 01:35:22 am What does that do Griz
Title: Re: Way(s) to minimize lag? Post by: Lexington on July 28, 2012, 02:37:19 am It makes it so that You can literally see nothing, everything game view is just black screen minus the UI. This works great and is also depicted in a previously posted info about how to box many or reduce lag. Great tip tho, I use it often, I believe someone even created a MQ2 plugin that'll do it to any session of eq that has mq2 running and is not active. I think the plugin name is mq2test try searching for that through the forums and you will find it. Best of luck.

Post by: MacofMacs on July 28, 2012, 12:53:05 pm I actually restarted my computer last night after playing 30secs of a round on blacklight retribution with my cousin because it was lagging hardcore and which it wasnt earlier.. after I did so I loaded 19 with no problem what so ever not even touching this method. Thanks though for the help!
