Good to hear from an ancient player, I recently just came back myself and started playing again and doing well.

Thanks for the replies. Do silverdragonams, or arkon still play? I saw some recent posts from them not too long ago. I may install NWN again, and see if I can still role play. Probably done being evil, so I shouldn't piss to many people off lol.

They are both around yes, thought I am not sure if SD still plays - she's head DM here tho, so we still bug her a lot.

You do need to come and play a good character. Then you can come join the rest of us whenever we smite Undead Grimm.

Hey Sam, nice to see ya!

Still around. Still a heathen.

Working a lot these days, so I don't have much time to play. I lurk in IRC when I can, feel free to stop in and say hi.

Wow, I miss all of you. I gotta load up nwn, and download a bajillion haks. Whats the irc channel?

Hi! Welcome back! =D

Look for the #Hala channel in the Stratics network...

This post should give you more info, I think. =)

Could Grimm fight undead Grimm? lol

I probably lost all my characters anyway =(

Grimm · Post by **Grimm** » Wed Apr 06, 2011 8:26 pm

Here I am, back on hala... I have all my characters! Only problem I'm having is performance related. Maybe someone with a newer system knows an easy solution to this.

I'm getting 10-20 fps in game. Resolution and graphics settings make little to no difference. I already tried disabling sound, and that made no difference.

System Specs...
Windows 7 64-bit service pack 1
AMD 1100t 6 core processor OC'd 3.8ghz per core
8 gigs gskill DDR3 2000 ram
Asus Crosshair IV mobo
Geforce GTX 570 video card.

Hi hi!

Still around-ish....

Like so many, real-life takes it's toll. Still try to check in as much as possible though!

Grimm · Post by **Grimm** » Wed Apr 06, 2011 9:54 pm

Good news! my fps is 2,900 in the menu screen... bad news, my fps still sucks in game.

Moonyju · Post by **Moonyju** » Wed Apr 06, 2011 10:19 pm

I musn't be nerdy enough... everytime I see "fps" I think of the French acronym for sun protection factor.

Had to look it up. =D

>.<

trinity suggested i try compatibility mode (xp), but I didn't have any luck with that. Still taking suggestions.

Zombie · Post by **Zombie** » Thu Apr 07, 2011 12:28 am

I know NWN has issues with some graphics drivers. I had to downgrade the driver on my old card to get proper results around water.

Dameon should stop by to see his old pal.

Grimm · Post by **Grimm** » Thu Apr 07, 2011 6:45 am

Well one of my low characters died today... I was able to see that while I was naked *cough* I mean my character was naked, that my fps was 300+. I found out my cloak is causing the problem... How can i fixed this? with the cloak on i get like 20 fps, when i take it off i get 200+.

Nastr0nd · Post by **Nastr0nd** » Thu Apr 07, 2011 6:53 am

You can remodel cloaks in the Tailor's shops in Mirtho and elsewhere. Probably the best tactic is to buy a cheap cloak and style that to your liking first to see if it works, rather than spend lots of gold remodeling an expensive one.

Grimm · Post by **Grimm** » Thu Apr 07, 2011 6:54 am

my robes also cause the problem... hmmm

Grimm · Post by **Grimm** » Thu Apr 07, 2011 7:16 am
