Something is very wrong with this game.
I have spent many dollars changing my system to fit this game, even though my system exceeded the supposed requirements. Got a bigger CPU,added as much RAM as my system will handle, got vid card that gives me the most open GL support I can have, bought the 100 dollar a month high speed internet service, the best in my area.And still, I get freezes that get me killed. You think it is just an obscure game, or waiting for the VBU that makes people leave? it is the fact that all I gain is lost with one freese of the system, one moment when I can do nothing,and I have made every effort to keep it from happening.

Re: Wrong in the worst way
Okay. Some more details.
What are the exact specifications of your system?
Do you use a up-to-date windows?
Do you use the latest version of Java 6?
Are your graphic drivers up-to-date?
What kind of internet connection are you using now exactly?
What is your ping response time to the Illarion Server?

Re: Wrong in the worst way
Sorry, cannot resist: A computer that runs Illarion in a convenient way can be bought at 50$ at any flea market. Illarion requires hardware that was state of the art in 2001. The freezes are either related to a software issue or connection issues.

naja, ich habe aber z.b. auch einen alten laptop in der schublade rumliegen auf dem illarion theoretisch laufen solle, aber es ums verrecken nicht will
das kurzzeitige "einfrierren" liegt bei mir häufig daran das irgendwelche autoupdates im hintergrund laufen.

Re: Wrong in the worst way
Sorry i too must comment, i run a machine built by Archimedes and find the game runs just great,
so i would have to say the issue you have is not a fault of the game.
Hope you sort your troubles out .

Re: Wrong in the worst way
100$ per month sounds like sattellite connection.
Sattelite connections are NOT thought for gaming use because sattelite ping is crappy. The signal needs between 0.5 and 1 second from your dish to the server and the same for the way back, so with sattelite connections you end up suffering ping times of at least 1-2 seconds.
Of course you have a stable connection and a good download rate, but the ping times of every dialup connection is much lower (=better).
