Hi guys, i have a couple of questions i would like to ask you if thats ok
 First off im running on an: AMD 64 3500+ 1 Gig RAM X800 XT PE 1.2 mbs connection The thing is i know my computer isn't exactally high end but my FPS is really poor! What options should i lower/turn off etc? The only other thing is that for some reason all the people, me included look yellow and green?! I cant see any clothes or anything just green and yellow people? Thanks |

First, try the Omega Drivers for your ATI card.
http://www.omegadrivers.net That should be the first step for any ATI user having troubles with SL. _____________________

Then try this ideas:
In PREFS, Turn off the Graphics tic marks for ripples and bumpmapping. turn down the Draw distance to 64. Set all the sliders for graphics details in the middle or less. Be sure AGP is ON, if that's an option. In Network, Move Bandwidth slider to 120. ALSO: If you're coming over from WoW or a Video Game console, don't expect the same quality. |

Just one more thing i honestly do not have a clue about! The game quits to desk top every 10-20 mins, i must have sent atleast 20 crash reports  EDIT: What does bandwith do? Is lower better? |

Bandwidth Slider for the Non-Techie

Even less technical: Drink from a fire hose, and you'll drown. Use a water tap the size of your mouth. (or in this case, IP bandwidth the size of your graphics card's ability to handle )Keywords: Bandwidth Slider lag latency ping time ISP packet loss optimise network And more good performance tuning tips at: /111/1f/106305/2.html#post1373895 |
