Lag in Brit

Post by Wulfang »

So I am a new user of UOX3, so far it is an awesome program. I have enjoyed my return to the game in this new format. I have utilized the all in one program and populated it with Xuri's world builder... It is going well. I do have one issue.

When in Britain it getts really laggy, I have tried going around and deleting some of the beggars and pesants. It is only happens in britain... none of the other areas...

Any suggestions or specifcs about the computer or versions that I am useing please let me know what I can supply to help resolve this.

Interesting. what connection/server are your running on?

I ran a heavilly populated Britain (community spawn + my own custom junk, to make it FEEL like a real city (ex: the bank actually looks like it did back in UO's hey day of 1996. Minus the dead bodies and res. robes!).

I was running the server on a hyper-threaded Pentium IV on windows XP, with the client on the SAME PC as the server, connected to the internet with a 56.6kb modem (anyone miss those squeally connection sounds?). I had two cousins logged in from across the US onto the server through the internet, connected through the modem.

Lag on Britain was acceptable, a little rough in spots but playable. We couldn't use horses though.

Now that we are on DSL with the server on an i7, we can use horses (with a bit of acceptable lag) in britain.

If we are on a local area network through a hub, lack was minimal and you could use horses to your hearts content.

So my long winded post is basically saying:

Something is wrong unless the server is on a 386dx4 with 8MB of ram. :)
