Hello

My PC almost freezes when I look in some directions in NF.
Seams to be when I face towards keeps or zergs.
When I just started the game its ok. But after an hour or so my PC almost
freezes facing keeps. I belive myself its a memory/caching problem.

I have all the latest drivers. Direct3D settings is all set to performance settings.
I have like 10-12 processes running only and no antivirus. My windows XP is tuned for gaming in all possible ways. BIOS settings is all optimized and the latest version.
Is there anyone that have some tip how to optimize DAOC to avoid this lag?

And what happend to precache feature in options menu in DAOC?

All suggestions welcome. :)

It happens to me too. Cpu sempron 2400+ (1.7 ghz) GeForce 6200 128 mb (gpu 300 mhz, memory 600 mhz), 1 GB RAM. Allways when moving in NF if someone is inc, dont matter friend or foe, get like a small freeze, and the more their numbers are, the longer the freeze is (FPS perf meter becoming yellow or even red). In towns, especially aegir / jorde, I have like 6-10 fps constantly which is annoying, having all graphics on minim setings, and precache all turned on. Usually in towns I circle camera with mouse pan couple times and then I can move arround, but in RvR is annoying if you lead group and play main CC :p So prefering small scale RvR to be able to play :>
And with only daoc runing (sometimes msn too), my cpu breaks 70 celsius degrees and ~80-90% cpu ocupancy (task manager / speed fan). Seems DaoC likes it hot hehehehe :p

and the text is blurry.. :eek:
Anyway. Im gonna try this below when I get home.
