just a short post about WOW it's a great game ,but im real Afraid to box in it till they fixx few memroy problem thve been havng .

like flying in to IF and my memory drops to 28 MB even worse in the PC with 2.5 ghz it runs even worse it just goes LD or even lokcs up while the one with 1 ghz run better then my other PC's with higher memory.

ive even tryed the 3GHZ switch and it didnt work .

and whts bad is on one of the PC with high memory i had to replace a stick of memory because of the IF thnig. ( Iorn forgce ) for those that dont play WOW .

the good thing about geting the memory replaced is it was kingston. '

I just hope by the time IS is ready for ever one, WOW is , or i wont be boxing in wow til i m sure i can do it safely . WOW can be real bad for memory , worse then EQ was. but its still to me the best game out there , right now.

I have to disagree about the memory issues, I havent seen anything like that except on my laptop which only has 512MB of RAM (I run other programs to keep an eye on Lavish though). WoW itself will only use up to about 350-400MB in IF in my testing. My main system runs WoW flawlessly, even if I run two sessions.

You may very well have issues on your systems with WoW though

it's not my system , but i gues all the player on my sever that xp the same thing . like no auctionie , Bsod in IF . if you want more info on it go to the wow saite im not the only one . ive treid everything . and i only get these issue in IF or that part of the game . ive eeven run it with out WinEQ. same thing only worse.

but i wont start a fight over it even some of my RL freinds wont go nere IF. i only wish it was a isssue with my sytem's . rember i have 6 PC's on the game . i built them all .

but it's cool I guess im wrong again.

All I said was it doesnt happen on my systems. Please dont get defensive, I said you may very well have the issue on yours.

IF you really read my post you will see were i said my system with less runs better .

And a lot of player with lower memory and less high end have less trouble.

that i have i talked to.

But your right i could be wrong.

JUst tried IS with WOW i love the way it handled my memroy .

well lets say get it done it acttly makes wow run 100% better.

the memory frame read is was using atm 200 MB from wht the memroy frame said , in wow .

With WinEQ it was using half of 2.5 ghz. ill have to run this PC to IF to see wht the memory stys at.

Cool

with IS this is wht happen and with WinEQ not nerely as good . ands with just wow i have no idea . but i no if i ran just wow it was even worse then with WinEQ .

IN thramore im using a little over 1677 in memeory were is with WinEQ thats doprs down big itme.

and my texture is stying at right anywere between betewwn 412 and 450 it tops out at 471.

cool even in IF it stying real nice , but i need to log so i''ll head back there tomorrow amd see how well IS does in IF .

i do no with out WinEQ on the eastern side , it's real bad and with WinEQ it's a little better ,but with IS it much better so far.

oyea btw ive been trynig to get others to use this , and i dont want anything . so i just think you took wht i said this time wrong.

now if thed fix the boats , im hoping IS will fix thnigs they dont seem to be doing .

Oyea in the wetlands area i was talking to someone with 4 ghz of DDR2 he told me he was laging so bad he couldnt tell if he was htting a mobb or not.

Yes, when flying into Stormwind on server Hellscream the memory warning pops when using WINeq. This happens on 5 different machiens at my house, all with 1 gig of ram. I have no clue if it happens outside of EQwin cause WoW dont have a memory pop up like WINeq does.

Toptek, do you use dual monitors? I can't seem to get InnerSpace to allow me to move between dual monitors like WINeq does. ANy idea? (I want to use full screen mode and not ahve the Windows bar at top or side (think that's called Windowed Mode).

bob can you explain in more detail what trouble you're having with dual monitors? I have set up two profiles in my IS, one on the primary display and one on the secondary display, and have had no problems putting them both in full screen emulated and switching between them.

toptek · Post by **toptek** » Thu Feb 17, 2005 2:16 pm

nope .

Just one montior does it , but whn i was in IF with IS so far np.

Time to learn IS.

Oyea i get the same in SW , and only on the Eastern side. but after i fly into SW thu im ok . unlike If.

bob can you explain in more detail what trouble you're having with dual monitors?

What I mean is that with WINeq I can run WoW on Primary monitor and simply move the cursor off the screen onto the other monitor with my web browser.

I do not seem to have this ability with InnerSpace. The mouse stops at the edge of the screen.

Oh. Should be no different with IS, unless you have the game itself in full screen mode -- IS does NOT force the game into windowed mode unless you set it to. Set the game in windowed mode via the checkbox in the game's "Video Options" interface, then you can hit shift+alt+f to emulate full screen mode if you have a clean install that created the PreInit and AutoExec (and if you dont, you can delete Games.XML and create the "Scripts" folder and start IS, or just instal it clean).

bob_the_builder · Post by **bob_the_builder** » Thu Feb 17, 2005 7:38 pm

I deleted the games.xml and created a script directory. Works like WINeq did now. I can move between monitors and use the alt+shift+f / n / t

Couple last questions... if you don't mind .. just smack me if you do mind ...

How can I add the FPS back to the corner using IS?

The CPU limiter for IS on background seems to be 59-61% cpu , how can I lower that down to 10-20% like WINeq?

How do I make a shortcut like WINeq did that auto launched WoW with WINeq (in my case WoW with IS)?

Thanks in advance,

Bob

Too answer my own questions.. forgot it was a console thing ...

How can I add the FPS back to the corner using IS?
HUDAdd "FPS" 20,20 FPS: ${FPS}

... I assume the commands are all similar and in the help...

Thanks Lax, job well done !
