[QUOTE="valn, post: 1812681, member: 7510"] [b]To reduce lag...[/b] I've been to a couple of other PW websites and they have some recommendations to help reduce lag. I'm posting them here, to see if it can help us too: 1. Don't play through Gamespy. Use the Direct Connect button, then type the EN World Server's address: [COLOR=Yellow]nwn1.dungeonserver.com:5123[/COLOR] 2. Limit the number of containers in inventory (like magic bags). I've seen the suggested limit set at 5. In our case, we could lower that, I don't know. I have 3 myself, but don't need them as much since I got that Strength boosting item. 3. Limit party size to 6, 8 with spellcasters' summon, familiar and animal companion. Hmm but I've rarely seen parties that big on our server, so I don't think that's too much of a factor. 4. Objects left on the ground. In PoA, I think there's already a script that cleans the ground regularly. Just don't know how long it takes for an object to get removed. Some PW use "trash barrel" for people to throw unwanted objects in (but that's only useful in town). Well that's pretty much it. #1 is easy enough for everyone to try. Let's see if that can make a difference... :) [/QUOTE]
