Anyone else having the problem with /colorswirl showing a big ball of light that lags you. We tested it today and if the targeted person is on side of your screen, and someone does /colorswirl to them, you see big ball of light and fps drops to 2.


Is there a way to work around this?

Me too, and most of the people I entertain with. We tend to avoid using it, and it's been driving us out of the Eisley cantina with all the AFK people making us lag.

Hmmm...I haven't experienced this. I guess the trick is to have a crappy five year-old computer with next to no memory left in it like mine.

Damn.. I thought it was just me as well.



A few times when this happened, I thought my computer was going to blow up.


I hope this gets addressed.

I DEMAND A STICKY!


/giggle


I haven't noticed a problem but I'm not big on effects that go on others instead of myself. The receiver is rarely amused or even acknowledges it and doesn't know who did it. I can try it some and report back with my report of finding brokie things that are broked report.

Something else...



I've only seen this lag effect happen when another player executes it, not when I do it. Strange

I've not had a problem with it but I'm running with a lot of RAM (I don't even lag at crawls). Are you consistently experiencing the lag only when others do it & they get lagged out only when you do it? What does the lag ball look like to those who are experiencing the lag when they see it? What graphics card and driver version are you using?


Btw..I only sticky threads if they either need to get everyone's immediate attention or are at risk of sliding off the front page.

Well i have pentium 4 2.8ghz with HT, 2GB DDR PC3200, Radeon x800 XL 256MB RAM and the game runs perfectly except when this happens. I see a large pink dome forming from the floor and my FPS drops right down to 2fps from a solid 30fps. I didnt realise it was colour swirl doing it i thought it was a musician effect as id never caused it myself and it doesnt always happen when others do it.

Catalyst 05.5

I have

4x Anti aliasing
4x Anistropic filtering
Full graphical detail, viewing distance and pixel shader versions.

Only thing i dont run is any shadows at all.
