Re: Ridiculous lag!! Please help! :(


Sweet, thank you for those system requirements.

and now I will look definitely look into buying a new processor and a new Graphics card

I was thinking:


Processor:
-Phenom II X6 1045T

GPU:
-Sapphire Radeon HD 6950 2GB



(And for those of you who are interested)
I found a little "fix" that will help a good amount of your frame rate if your game is absolutely unplayable

1. Go into the directory where Planetside "LaunchPad" is located
2. Inside that directory look for a file named "UserOptions" (It will be a .config file)
3. Open the file with 'NotePad' or another similar program.
4. In the UserOptions file, under the [Rendering] section you will see "RenderDistance=-1" (It is set to -1 by default)
I have learned that -1 one just means that it's pretty much infinitely rendered around you, which is a huge contribution to your lag.
5. Change the Number "-1" to something such as "1500" or "1800" or something similar to that. The distance is measured in meters I believe, and doing this little fix could boost your FPS by 10-15 frames or more (It did it for me)
