if you have logging on and someone or an npc casts the spell center it will lag you because it takes the <center> text as a formatting command and tries to format your log file. this can be a huge pain in the ass in zones with cleric guilds like felwithe. turn logging off to resolve this issue

whaaaat? lol .... got proof?

No idea what he's talking about. The log is a .txt file and formatting flags would do nothing to it. I have log on all the time and no issues here.

its a fairly well known issue on live. you can make a lvl 1 high elf on a live server and see for yourself, altho the freezes might not be too bad until your log file gets to be decent size. you can also type <center> in chat and cause the freezing as well. since it seems to be a windows issue and not a client issue, i would imagine p99 would behave similarly.

whole thread about it......

This is the winning answer......



Want to know why? It's because <center> is an HTML command and it's trying to edit your log file document. If you have a large log file, it will lag.

Try type any of these in your chat box, for example use /say

/say <center>
/say <p>
/say <br>
/say &nbsp:
/say <h1>

This will lag out anyone nearby who has their log on. So yeah.

<center> seems really bad, because it tries to center all text that goes into your log file for the next 10 seconds or so. Try this:

/say <center> and then spam H (hail). Fun times.

Ok... That's pretty messed up, however pretty sure that issue doesn't occur here on p1999 servers. You never even see Center with those tags around it in p1999. Not sure what client messed that up but it looks like a pretty recent bug on live, so not titanium.

I see other bugs with those tags but not that one.... On p99 those brackets cause word-wrap to hide characters. (As seen in /who lists. And PVP yellow-text)

is there another fix to framerate aside from disabling the xbox crap? after the anniversary update things get incredibly choppy in EC tunnel

biggest problem I have with Windows 10?

inability to turn updates off.

you can lose system stability at any time. I have kept my Windows 7 updates off since about 4-5 months ago when they caused immediate shutdowns of my PC at random.

Never had a problem since.

you can disable win10 updates easily if you have the pro version. just need to hit up the group policy editor and disable it there.
