Silkroad Online Forums

sorry don't know where to post this but i need help coz every now and then my character freezes then a little while later i'm dead.. ben reinstalling sro but still it happens.. any one what should i do?

when does this occur, like soon as you go into combat? also, does it happen in towns? I'm not sure if theres a bug that freezes you right before fighting a monster

it's cauze u got slow net speed

@firemouse: ya usually when i start grinding but it also happens inside town..

@bloodstorm: don't think so coz i can surf fast enough..

lol you die inside town? or just experience the freezing?

only the lag lol

I'm not really sure, back then when I had lagging issues I just got more RAM, (this was for WoW) but when I started SRO I also had no problems..other then that, I'm not sure what to do, i wouldn't go as far as getting a new video card. try lowering the graphics, small things like that to see if it helps any

Edit: also make sure you never run anything like torrents, or any other programs while playing

No, have the same issue and never had lag this bad, any type of combat, waiting for drops, moving, etc. major lag... then disconnected from server.

ok i got 512mb ram and 128vid card.. i don't run any programs while i'm playing.. i never had this one b4 been playing for more than a year now..

hi
same here here i never used to get lag this bad but of late its almost unplayable

my specs

p4 3.2
mem 1.5 gig
gforce 6800 ultra

latest drivers

droped all settings to lowest and still getting verry bad lag

lol everytime i post my reply here means i got dced again.. i got 2 weeks more playing time b4 class beginsagain and i can't play..

hmm, lag is a common thing in silkroad but to easy it up on towns go to options and settings, and take off all the names and stuff, also open your task manager and go to procceses and shut down anything that your not using anymore, cause programs like limewire don't close they just go onto your tool bar.

Usually when i started grinding that's the time the super lag kicks in then freeze and dc or if not my character will stand still and yetis killing him..

Hmm this happends to me once in a blue moon, but when it does i just restart, mabby its something with your comp.

ya likewise here but right now it's really a problem..

Forgot to come back and mention, reset modems all was well after...once I finally got back in that is...

never tried that.. i'll try that tomorrow after a good night sleep

ok how do you reset modems

You can grind to 80 but you don't know how to reset your modem?

I bet its your RAM...to play Silkroad nicly w/o lag you need a good 800KB/s connection Downloading and around 1 gig ram..
