getting strange lag.

Post by el duderino »

i figured out the whole net framework error i was having but now i'm back to where i was that made me wanna reinstall razor to begin with.

i get strange lag that isn't internet lag when i alt tab to go full screen on any instance instance of uo. my mouse seems to jump around and stop sometimes when i don't want it to. this doesn't happen to me in any other program or game windows.

does anyone know of settings that can cause this strange graphics lag?

Is Razor -> General -> Use smart cpu usage reduction UNchecked as it should be?

Only thing I can think of off-hand.

On my Windows 7 computer, if I Alt-Enter (go full screen) it actually freezes the whole program. However, if UO is freezing when you are Alt-Tabbing between programs, then the way to fix that is to turn off the Aero theme (windows 7 by default has a desktop theme called "Aero" that gives titlebars a transparent effect). That fixed the issue for me.

To do this--right click your Desktop background anywhere->Personalize. Scroll down to see "Basic and High Contrast Themes". I do Windows Classic b/c I'm old school, but I think Windows 7 Basic works too.
