I hope there is some mechanism put into place to recover the AD dumped into the lost set. 2x ref doesn't touch the marks and wards from what I understand, not to mention the initial investment of the set.
OK, - so it appears that the game cannot detect graphics cards/drivers with limitations in all cases. The sm20 switch enabled my laptop, Dx11, to run the game, which it could pre-maze, and my destop, Dx9c, to run without the 38 sec idle delay on startup and 20 sec freezes at other times. The sm20 switch did cause range of…
Seems that the marsh mystic would only freeze me in the lair quest. I could not repeat the issue in the zone with the one mystic I found. Also, the startup pause would disappear if I was running teamspeak logged into an active channel.
Well - there are still times when the game freezes for 20-36 secs on live server for me. Really frequent in Pirate King. It also froze after the cutscene on the 1st boss in frozen heart, but I only ran it once. I did find something that would consistently cause a freeze. If I don't move Immediatly! when a marsh pirate…
Experienced random 35 sec game freezes while trying Castle Never today. I also notice that the live server takes 57s from the time I hit the play button until the character screen comes up while the preview server takes 97 sec with about the difference made up with cpu usage being near zero, as if something is not…
Finally resolved the problem by changing the advanced graphics settings while in safe mode. The default values looked reasonable, but maybe changing them also reinitialized some other values.
Well, the problem comes back if I hit the mount tab or the travel screen in anything other than the default window mode. Guess I'll just stick to the small default windowed mode off in the corner for a while.
I got it to behave normally again tho I cant say exactly what I did to correct the problem. I initially had fps on, so turned it off, maximized, then turned it back on. I also had tried cascading and tiling in the meantime, so I cant be certain.
Along with not being able to come even CLOSE to what I was able to do before, (solo the Sharandar and Dread ring lairs), I don't see a new gear progression path. The purples I had were useless. Completing all the new zone quests would just barely get me to 1600 IL, which is nowhere near adequate for the "1600" dungeons. So…
