All channels that weren't legion/party weren't working, /3, /1 etc... got fixed within an hour or two.

This is the second time they've botched the chats.

and the second time no one cared. shits worse than AS.

[Falisa]

Because every patch is going to be 100% perfect? They fixed it in no time, there's no need to complain about it. Q_Q less

[Chun Liroy]

Can't believe the amount of whining that is going on... did you guys like pay attention to the way SE runs things?

[Trocian]

EU servers still doesn't have their chats right.

Just came across this in AS:

Two days ago I was banned for multiboxing (I play 9 sorcs, 1 chanter and 1 templar). I painstaking leveled them up to 30+ (no group xp bonus so its one heck of a grind).

haha I cant stop laughing.

[Ququroon]

Oh Fishstix, you can't just quote that and not give the OMGBAAWWWW thread that ensues.

Banned for Multiboxing (Any suggestions?) - AionSource.com

They get so butthurt.

[Chun Liroy]

I think your sig compliments it perfectly.

Women can get away with it. Unless it's a retro game T for a bloke it's just sad.

[Insanecyclone]

Meh. I don't log back in for 2 or 3 weeks and I still lag in western eracus desert like when I first got here.

fuuuuck

Not sure if people saw this already but: http://www.aionsource.com/forum/gene...ance-tips.html This person discovered how to do things like enable console, tweak settings through a txt file, etc. Basic example:

-First, run Notepad (Windows default text editor).
-Second, Copy & Paste the following into Notepad, explanation follows:

#Basic settings#

con_disable_console = "0"
g_open_aion_web= "0"
g_save_preset = "1"
d3d9_TripleBuffering= "1"
r_Texture_Anisotropic_Level= "16"
d3d9_TextureFilter= "TRILINEAR"

As you can see, Code contains 6 command-lines most of which are self-explanatory. Nevertheless here is a breakdown:

con_disable_console = "0" -Allows you to use the in-game console by pressing PauseBreak key
g_open_aion_web= "0" -Disables opening Aion webpage when quiting
d3d9_TripleBuffering= "1" -Enables Triple buffering, this must be set to enabled, it offers a significant performance boost-
r_Texture_Anisotropic_Level= "16" -Enables 16x Anisotropic filtering, sharpens textures with minimal performance loss-
d3d9_TextureFilter= "TRILINEAR" -Sets filtering type to 'Trilinear'
g_save_preset = "1"-Saves your settings
- 1 means enabled, 0 means disabled, this is only true for enable/disable options

As the title above them suggests, these are 'Basic' settings, they enhance the game without much of a performance hit. If you think 16x Anisotropic is too much you can change the value to 8 or 4. Even if you dont like playing with configurations and not sure what any of this means, you should atleast have the 'Triple buffering' command line [ d3d9_TripleBuffering= "1" ], it can and will improve your performance.

-Finally, click Save as in notepad. Name the file " system.ovr " without the Quotes and save it to a location you remember. You must save the text file with this name or it wont work.

Alright, now you have a text file named ' system.ovr ' which contains the above settings, to actually use these settings in Aion, we do the following:
-Browse to your Aion folder [ex. C:\Aion ]
-Look for a text file named 'system.cfg' and delete it, this file saves your last settings, and is auto-created every time you exit the game, so no need to worry.
-Copy 'system.ovr' that we created into your Aion folder.

That is all, the next time you run the game. The settings in the 'system.ovr' will be processed. Its important to remember that the values you set in system.ovr may not be correctly displayed in the game's default graphics settings menu. So don't let that confuse you.

probably should've made a new thread for this, so people can post what settings are good and different functions, meh.

[Halion]

That seems awesome, but I can't run the game with the default fullscreen resolution. Do you think there's any reason I can't have someone else do this and use both the system.cfg and system.ovr that they created?

[fishstix]

yeah you should be able to use other people's config files, I'm not sure how the default resolution can cause a problem with this though. There's a variable line for the resolution too if that helps you any:

r_FullScreenHeight = "900"
r_FullScreenWidth = "1440"

[Halion]

Yeah for some reason regardless of my desktop resolution it tries to run in 1360x768 when it's FSed which is not supported by my monitor. I tried putting that code in the system.ovr and it ignored it. Thanks though I'll get someone else to send me a windowed version.
