Re: what is needed in a comp to play silkroad on high settings
Ya after my finals I'm going to sit down clean it out and put it back together then clean/update/adjust what ever the hell I have to in order to hopefully fix the issue =/
Re: what is needed in a comp to play silkroad on high settings
I'm running a cheap computer and I can run SRO all High even in towns(except for Hotan)...I think its more about the internet connection ^_^
Current spec:
Intel Pentium Dual-Core
ATI Radeon x1600 Pro Saffire Crossfire(2006-2007 video card)\
2G of DDR2 RAM

Net connection has no relation to how well your computer can render frames.

But part of it has to do with lagging in town or not

I run with shadows on detailed. I did this on my old system, and my current one.
Old system:
AMD Athlon XP 3200+
512 MB PC2700 DDR SDRAM
200GB IDE hard drive
NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 128 MB graphics
New system:
AMD Phenom X4 Quad-core processor
2GB PC6400 800MHz DDR2 Corsair RAM
250GB SATA hard drive
NVIDIA GeForce 8200 chipset
In both systems, I ran SRO in Linux (Ubuntu and Gentoo). Both systems, I ran high graphics, every option turned on (including detailed shadows) except water reflection OFF. Resolution 1280x1024 on the new system. I think I had it at 1024x768 on the old system.
On the new system, I don't get much lag even in Hotan and Jangan with all the stalls and whatnot. It's pretty smooth grinding out in the field. On the old one, I still lagged a bit in town, but if I found a nice quiet place to grind, it was great!

Amd athlon 2,2ghz, 1gb ram and 256mb x550 .
Quite old pc, but can handle up to 30fps with no shadows and w/ bloom effect, around 15fps w/ shadows and bloom, and around 70 w/o neither of them.

And when i set all on max it looks nice works ok but in town or in crowded places its not working good, i get bad fps in those places :S. Silkroad graphics are badly coded or something couze i can run 2008/9 with all graphics on 80-100% and have bigger fps than in silkroad max graphs.
hope this helps you ^^
My build is very similar and I have to agree with you. It rapes WoW but not Sro, and when I try to run a second client to stall I get BSOD within 10mins it's lame.....
I dont have that problem
I just cant play silkroad smoothe with detailed shadow's on and thats just insane considering i have bought my parts last summer for 1300 euro's ... >_>
The problem with silkroad is that the detailed shadow's are not suported on most new or newer graphic cards. Just a simple problem of bad coding. bad driver suport, and tsjeahh JOYMAX ^^.
Atleast Circle shadow works fine. But there is still 1 thing, i didn't test the detail shadow's after the 100 cap update.... i saw some new screen resolutions etc so maayby it would work now

4/5 clients? Last I checked, SRO only enables you to run one client. If you try to run a second client, it pops up a box saying "Silkroad is already running". Are you talking about multi-client? *shocked*

I used to be an IT student, and am now working in software development and computer security. I guess I know a thing or two about what your (I mean my) computer can do as well...
What use would you have for running 4 or 5 clients anyway? Do you really need that many stallers, or do you just like to hog a bunch of server space to plvl your own noobs? Or maybe something else?

The fact that i know i can run a kazilion clients thoes not mean i run that many continously
1 client is enuf for me when i play normaly mayby 1 extra stall sometimes ? the rest of the performence is used for playing movie's on my second screen or play music or whatever.
Its similar with my bike I know I can ride 240kmh i drove it 2 or 3 times that fast, but normaly i drive at max 160kmh. The fact that i can go super fast thoes not mean i always go that fast thoes it ?

Re: what is needed in a comp to play silkroad on high settings
i think that Joymax beta testers team never played sro in high ( detailed)... it just lags cause:
Silkroad lags everyday, lags everyday like a BITCH!!!

Never argue with an idiot. They bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
Re: what is needed in a comp to play silkroad on high settings
I usually play on low, I think it looks better than high. I sometimes play on medium though, there are no problems. And, my computer is whack.
