Well if you know you have a bad pc, don't complain wondering why you lag.

DUDE, 16MB?
You sure that's correct?
If so I can easily award you the crappiest card ever award.
Also, everyone lags, no matter how good of a PC you have.
An average PC should be able to handle around 10 thousand bricks before lagging though.

I haven't really experienced lag in retail, on my decent computer - the only noticeable change between a build of, say, 5 bricks, and that of 128 thousand bricks, is a longer spawn time as the bricks are loaded.

Also, the computer I am on at the moment has a 32mb GFX card, and can really only run Blockland with graphics turned down to absolute minimum, and even then it is prone to crashing. It's time for you to start saving up and purchase a new card/computer.

How old are your computers?
I have yet to see a computer sold in stores with a card less than 126mb.

Rage 128 is like 8 years old. I'd say upgrade your video card, but the rest of your computer is probably ancient too. What are your system specs?

JOHN is the name of your computer ;)

Actually, the rest of your computer doesn't look that horrible, only the GFX.

MrPickle · June 23, 2007, 12:02:44 PM

So is there anything i can do apart from buy a new video card?

If you want to run blockland? Then no, not much you can do.
