Limited lag issue - need assistance
Hi all
Made an account in here, because I have a problem.
I have succesfully preordered/installed/patched and have been playing the game - no trouble along the way. The server is online and I can join without any trouble.
But I have an ingame problem, I run the game with decent fps, low ping (50-70), but i experience a massive lagproblem when "rightclicking" for the GUI and also when looting/talking to npcs even when pressing enter to activate chat. I think it might be a problem on my end, as I have asked in the public channel if anyone else has been experiencing this - no1 has.
Its a real problem as 20 sec is forever when trying to loot for example a goblin, as im dead when the lagging ends, by the hand of the goblin's mate.
Any help would be much appreciated.

I wrote support@aventurine.gr, but I expect them to be quite busy right now.
Another bump, i really need this problem fixed. Noone with a clever idea?
I guess its something tey will fix right away. There were not any of those problems in beta.
Yeah maybe, the problem is that its not a very commen issue, as I have heard of maybe 1 other experiencing this thing.
Im in the process of updating every thinkable driver etc.
You may have better luck posting your DFO problems on the DFO forums.

I have plenty of memory.
Anyone else have an idea for fixing this, I have tried the official forums - so far without succes.
I have also written suppoert@aventurine.gr twice, but havent got any replies yet.
whats your system specs and whats your os its a rare issue but i think its mostly user side issues
Vista 32 bit.
2,2Ghz Duo core
3 GB ram
G8600M GT
500GB 5200 rpm hdd
laptop - using external mouse (but ofc tried without).
Updated everything possible - sound, gfx, directx. Defragmented my drive.
Amuse us and update your Java to version 6 update 12

I'm running on a very similar setup in Vista Business with zero issues.

As a follow-up I can say that this lappy has run AoC and WAR very nice. So it should be able to run DFO.
Thx for the reply, I just updated Java to v. 6 update 12, unfortunaly with no result.
I have no idea as to why lag would appear on right-click functions. Visit this site http://www.tweakguides.com/ and grab a tweak guide for a new, fairly graphic-intensive video game (like Fallout 3). Run through some of the generic Windows tweaking advice inside and see if your problem disappears.
Good luck!

disable mouse smoothing? or are you wireless?
Perhaps remap to keyboard helps ?

Some testers reported UI delays with a G15 keyboard. Can you try to over-ride your laptop keyboard and touchpad with an external USB mouse and leyboard?

I dont exactly know what you mean, could you clarify?

disable mouse smoothing? or are you wireless?
I have mouse smoothing disabled, so its not it. Do you mean wireless internet? Yes, im using a wireless router, as we have 4 computers in the house. And I havent had any problem with online gaming at all.
Thx for the tip, I had some thoughts of tweaking anyway
I have tried using both an external mouse and keyboard with no different result.
I have seen the keyboard issue, and I have tried finding an updated driver for the keyboard/touchpad, the laptop producer (HP) havent produced any newer driver for the keyboard.

I have disabled things like Aero, but not much more, going to look into a bit more tweaking.
I believe that my wireless router is giving a higher amount of ping, but it has always been acceptable - 60-100 ms.
But i will try plugging the laptop directly to the router, see if that helps...
