Im in perma now and was getting really bad lag as everyone has stated here.

I notced that whenever my FPS would go to 150-250 the lag would build like crazy, I found a couple of places in the zone where my FPS would drop to 100-120 and it would slowly clear of lag and not lag at all.

Using fraps I locked my framerate at 50-60 and had no lag whatsoever anywhere in the zone, my question is, is there a way to lock your eq framerate without using fraps to record a video? Seems like if I could lock my framerate to say no higher than 100 in perma then the lag would be completely gone.

Got this lag today in Perma. Got it once before in Misty Thicket as well. I followed Redriot's FPS theory and did put all settings on max and I don't seem to have the problem anymore. Not sure what my FPS is at atm though. How do I check it?

Which btw, iirc, 100 is the maximum it can be set to. Guess you may want to try locking it around 50-60 or just under 100 so you never go above 100.

Well I had it set at 100, because 100 FPS wasn't lagging me, however when its set at 100 it doesn't lock it and it can go as high as 280 for me. Bringing it down to 80 has locked it from going above 80 and completely eliminated the lag issue.
