Daemondas Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 (edited) Hi, i was interested how to make Lineage 2 work smooth. My PC is not bad but i want to make better for Lineage 2, because in Giran town i feel little fps drops and it really feels then i spin camera around, I want to play full game with maximized graphics. So who know what resources it use most? CPU, GPU or i need to do some special settings? My PC now: GPU: GTX 980; CPU: i5-7600K; RAM: 16GB, SSD Edited November 21, 2018 by Daemondas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no way to make it work smoothly. It's dated software. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devoid Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 @Daemondasgrab the fastest NVMe SSD your mainboard can support and install L2 there. That's it. You've done all you can. On a more realistic note, if you could drop the 'maximized graphics' requirement, you could disable shadows. It really helps in high player density areas. @DisplayName it is safe to say that no such thing is going to happen, as PC market cannot hope to come even close to mobile. Have to satisfy those shareholders and not spend time on some deadbeat Lineage III. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They missed the boat with their chance to do L3.... what they really missed though was a chance to actually satisfy their customers and re-do L2 the right way.

Just because it isn't publicly traded doesn't mean that it is owned by a single entity. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shareholder Edited November 21, 2018 by Devoid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually is though, it's owned by one family. You'd be amazed at the stuff you read about this company on Glassdoor from former employees. It talks about nepotism and all sorts of juicy details.

My PC now: GPU: GTX 980; CPU: i5-7600K; RAM: 16GB, SSD All the physics are passed on the CPU in UE2, therefore the more IPS your CPU can handle , the better it will perform (on a single core).Also as @Devoid said, get a faster storage like nVME drive or if you got like 32GB+ RAM, use a RAM drive.

A RAM drive would provide some performance increase but would still have some issues. The main fault is with UE2 and not being able to handle multi-core processors as well as it should, which is why back in the day if you had a multi-core processor you had to set your CPU affinity to one or else L2 wouldn't run. That was fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGR Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Worst hit on performance is going to be the 'realistic water' setting. Can affect performance even if there is no visible water on the screen. Especially when you look certain directions. I believe you have to expand the advanced options section to see it.

That was fun. It was crashing the client for me, setting the affinity... The client still has a memory issues, since performance degrades over time...

You are the first person I have ever heard of that had crashing issues setting affinity. But, I imagine that it can happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overclocking or just rise the turbo multipliers for the cores as high as possible. But if you don't know what you're doing, you'll be better off upgrading your CPU to smth like i5-8600 or so. Intel still does have higher IPC than AMD, so better stick to their CPUs.Although there is nothing wrong to go with a ZEN+ CPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was playing the other day and thinking: WTF, why is my performance degrading so much over time. I even closed all windows, but the problem persisted. Hell, even the start menu was sluggish!
