- - FPS Lag on Era (https://forums.graalonline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=134261241)

Constantly while playing Era my FPS drops over and over. This makes it extremely hard for me to pk on era. It's very frustrating trying to dodge bullets and shoot while your opponent is running almost twice as fast as you, even though you both have the same walk speed. I highly appreciate anyone who helps me. <3

All of my drivers are completely updated.

That's pretty intense. I once optimized that when I was still working on Era. Looks like it got a few additions..

Open task manager and go to processes.
See if anything is taking up an insane amount of cpu usage.

Close programs like AIM/MSN/Limewire if you're not constantly using them.

Also (which you probably did) turn off the effects in the Graal options menu, or even the gani effects in the Era options menu.

do you have the same problem on v5?
I'll take a look at the movement system. It's usually pretty high, but 14% is nuts...especially when it's the only thing showing noticeably high cpu usage.

I noticed someone added ice parts to it, no additions from me though

Chris told me to post "The majority of that is actually the nickname system since it's called from within the movement system, I tested it when I was manager trying to reduce the CPU usage". Sorry if I'm breaking rules or something, just trying to help someone with their lag problems.

Yep, same problem on v5.

In response to what Chris said, you should see if limiting or even disabling nicknames helps

Yes, disabling nicknames helps a boat load. When I had v5 i had to check no nicknames to have less lag, virtually none, but v6 solved all the problems for me.

Tell Chris that now he's 'double banned no returns white rabbit'.

If default nicks were more customizable we wouldn't have this problem.

That is strange. I had the nicknames working quite well and with a low CPU usage when I was around. The code was still somewhat ****ty, and I believe Chris optimized it or something, but the usage used to be way, way lower.
