Hello, "Deerest" Community! (pffff)

Made an account a few days ago, and so far this game is great! I love the scenery and the fact that there is no set way to play.

So... I hope I can become a good member of the community as well~



Unfortunately, my framerate doesn't seem to rise above 5 fps. I've turned down the character detail and all the "blinking eyes" type checkboxes, play it at a low res, disabled a few of the particle files (like when you run into a tree and you have the blue smoke), and turned off all background programs.

Is there anything else that can be done? My computer isn't even old... No idea why its so slow! Its like playing it on a calculator!



Oh, and there seems to be an art focus around these parts.....

Ah yeah, I've had that

Ah yeah, I've had that problem too with the FPS. I even tried changing settings on my laptop and it didn't do a thing. I think it's a memory problem, since I have a cheapo laptop. You might have the same problem there.

Yeah this community is very friendly and fun, and there are a looooot of artists and writers here, so you're in good company! And that artwork of yours is great, so adorable X3

Anyway, welcome to the Endless Forest!

First of all... thank you

First of all... thank you everyone for the welcome! ^o^ I don't think I've ever met such a nice community for any game.



Ourania- I have a Dual-Core 2.10 GHz processor with 2.75 GB usable ram. I play all kinds of mmo's (Perfect World, Mabinogi, etc) and they are just a little laggy (had to disable nagle for Mab) but they run pretty fast.

I'm wondering if its because I'm in North America and the server is all the way in Europe (Belgium?). But then, I'm sure there are other North American players, so... full circle.

Those specs aren't too bad, but might I ask what kind of graphics card you have?

Sounds fancy.



And thanks to everyone trying to help.

According to this, it's

According to this, it's considered a lower-end card, so that's probably why you get 5 fps. Updating the driver for it might help though.

Ah, that must be it. Although

Ah, that must be it. Although when I updated the driver it went from constant 5 fps to 5-6 fps.
