Team Viewer
 
Does anyone use Team Viewer to play p99 remotely? If so how do you move your character? I can do everything just fine except for movement seems to be crazy laggy. Any suggestions?

I think Team Viewer is going to be laggy no matter what: it's effectively sending screenshots from your first computer to the second every ___ milliseconds, and unless you have a perfect connection between the two network lag is going to cause visible lag, as it just can't send enough screenshots fast enough.

The one caveat there is that TeamViewer doesn't really send the whole screenshot, it does some clever math to only send the part that changed ... it's just not clever enough. Other remote viewing systems might be "cleverer" and have better algorithms that improve performance, but still there's an upper limit.

While I've never used it for EQ, NoMachine has the best performance out of all the screen viewing/remote control software I've used.

I’ll give that a try.

Dont use WSAD to move, use the arrow keys. Optimize for quality.

The arrow keys are what I was using.

No reason to use TeamViewer to play on p99 unless you are boxing. Which is the dumbest way to do it.

If you are trying to play from work just take ur p99 folder with you and play from that.

Not allowed to install anything on our work computers. No thumb drives. I’m not interested in playing on a work computer. I would much rather play from my iPad during lunch and such.

The problem is that the refresh rates of monitors are typically 60Mhz and you need it to be 144Mhz for the framing to not swap so much.

Bandwidth is not the problem. Refresh rate is.

Friend has had luck playing on a surface pro. Switch up form iPad. I’ve yet to find a remote viewer that will allow much fluid use.

Also you wouldn’t need to install anything. P99 is portable. Just put it on a flash drive and you can play anywhere that has a P3 or higher and a solid connection.
