/help pls help this lagg is really anoying im thinking about quitting RO

[Dew]

Not reading your wall of text, but if you're lagging it's your problem.
I haven't felt lag anytime I've been on recently.

So either get a better connection, or quit.

[Vignes]

Close ur msn messenger case it will cause some lagness on ur Ro. No it doesnt mean that u can't chat while Roing but dun let Ro overlap ur messenger.

Seems like a connection/throughput problem. You can try running pings, or a packet monitor (eg. Wireshark) and see if you get a lot of retransmissions.

AnthemRO running at full CPU load is normal - that's how they coded it, that's how it runs.

First of all check your internet speed.
Open this web page to check what speed you are currently getting.

http://us.mcafee.com/root/speedometer/

Once the page is open click this link on the bottom of the page.

Post what speed you are getting over here.

Then Defragment your primary Hard Disk.
Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools>Disk Defragmenter
Select C:\ Drive or your Primary HD and press the Defragment button.
Warning : This may take several hours and you are not advised to use your computer while it works.

After that Download the Beta Client
Yes as amazing as it might sound, the Beta client uses less resources and memory than the original client.

Also don't forget to
Post your computer's hardware specs mainly,
Right click "My Computer">Select Properties>Post a screenshot of the properties window.

i did it
and my internet conection speed is at 100
thats is my inetrent anyways
is that good a 100k ineternet speed
i s the problem there
if it is why i could play nomally some month ago

[usman]

Nah..100k is not great speed really but its excellent for playing RO, I think the problem lies in your Computer itself and not the internet connection.

Please do the last part of my suggestion,

i posted it already lol

Sorry, I can't see it. You need to first upload the image to www.imageshack.us and then post the link.

These are the recommended system requirements for Ragnarok Online.

OS          Windows 98se/me/2000/XP
CPU        Pentium - 700 MHz or higher (Athlon CPU, Celeron)
RAM       256 MB or higher
VGA        Video Card DirectX compatible video card with 32MB video memory, Transform & Lighting, DirectX 8.0 or higher
SOUND    Sound Card DirectX compatible sound card / 3D Surround Sound Support
Other      Other 700MB or higher Hard Drive space

Clearly your computer has a much higher configuration than this. The minimum connection speed it a 56k connection, while you have a 100k connection.

The only possible problem that I can see it that your computer is slow because of the numerous other programs installed/running and/or lack of proper maintainance. 

• You should uninstall unneeded programs from Add/Remove programs in your computers Control Panel.
• You should Defragament the primary hard disk as I have explained in my previous post.
• You should Keep other programs closed such as MSN messenger and all other programs in your system tray.
• Most importantly you should download the Beta Client because of reasons explained previously.

The best option ofcourse if you are comfortable with it is to reformat your computer.

Sorry, but that is all I can help you with, because in my opinion this problem of yours is neither because of your internet connection nor because of your computers configuration. If you need any help with the methods I have suggested or have any more questions feel free to ask.

thank you so much for all your advice mançyou have been the few one who has helped me
i did soemthing you mentioned
i unistalled useless program
i desfraagmenetd the disk
i always play ro without otehr program runing
all what im thinking to do is formating the pc
and otehr thing
you said lack of proper maintenance
how can i maintenance a program???
and what about the 100% cpu while runing anthemexe at 99
someone told me thast not normally to a program run at that
he also said the program is damaged
but i can unistll RO cuz it says the unistall file is missing
and tried erasing the whole folder
but the problem is still there when i install RO again
can anyone send  me a link where to down load at elast the unistall file just the unistall file pls
ty for all your help

Edit: when i desfragmented th disk
tehre were some programs that couldnt be desfragmented or something like that
and one of them was anthemexe
whan can i do about it 

[usman]

Can you run the file called "spatchReader.exe" in your RO folder and thus tell me your version of spatch.inf?

i ddi it says: spatch.inf version is 1629
i must tell you i havent updated sakary cuz i did a lot fo time   and each time i unistalled it and installed it i updated sakray and  i still ahd the problem
but now i unistall RO  for the 5th time and now i havent updated sakray im planing to leave the pc on updating the sakray tonight

[usman]

Once you patch your Sakray Download the Beta Client,

Download AnthemBetaClient.zip

After extracting the above to your RO folder you will need to run AnthemNew.exe

i already got all thsoe files
and doen that  several times
but ima first ptch teh sakaray then download the beta version
( unistll and instll again) sigh

Might be because of your internet connect. Speed does not always say a lot, it also depends on the distance and the network. Try pinging the server's IP address (anyone who can provide it?) and see what your ping is.

[Moon Drifter]

btw RO uses 100% of CPU usage normally >.>;
