Lag, any that can help?
« on: July 06, 2013, 01:40:49 pm »
Hi, so when i'm playing FH it starts lagging very often.. And i was thinking why?
I understand if it starts to lag when you're around a bunch of other servers, but it lags on my fh even if i'm alone in a map.
I don't think it's the whole fh, since it doesn't lag on my friend's fh.
Is it because i have a virus on my computer? Or maybe i have to many un-useful games etc.?

If it's possible, then is there anything i can download so FH will stop lagging? Or do i just have to live with it?
The game is awesome, really, i was just thinking if there was a way to play without the lag :)

Please comment, thanks.

From; Balsam

Hai thar. To answer your questions, there is not anything you can download to stop FH from lagging, as far as I know. But you can do things to prevent the lag. First, enter FH, on the main menu. At the bottom of the screen, you'll see a button called 'Options.' Click and select the tab 'Video'. Turn off water reflections, and slide your viewing distance to somewhere lower than default. Then change the rendering system to 3D9. Why you are lagging is because a few days ago there were a couple of hard drive crashes. The server is now running on only one hard drive, so it might be very slow. Raz, our server admin, is trying to fix it. Just hang in there, lass.
