Wierd Problem

[Zolfur]

I haven't had this problem before just recently, i bought this new computer with windows 7 i have 6gb of ram and dual core processors so obviously i have enough to run this game. But i experience alot of client lag when i ride a mount and it only happens when i ride mounts... Any ideas and suggestions on how to fix this would be nice.

what ive heard the servers lags at the moment... but thats just what ive heard:P

[Glarundis]

did you patch after 5.0.9.1 or before?
try to have exactly 5.0.9.1

Other than that, I think the pc doesn't affect anything. Unless it's the crappiest pc ever.
But being better won't affect it, I think.

Try to have the correct patch, and check your net connection

Maybe you could use uotraceroute to check if recently your isp is using a different route to the server which makes you lag. Sometimes it can happen.

Only allow one of your CPU cores to run the game.

The server has indeed been lagging recently.

How do i set make it so only one core runs the game?

Start Task Manager -> Process -> Right click on No_Crypt_Client -> Set Affinity

Does that really improve it, or is Mike trolling again? :<

It does. I use 2 cores instead of 4 when running 3D.

Not trolling at all broseph, UO doesn't have good multi core support.
