Lag in Nexus?

Okay, guys, so... I use Nexus to play, because I'm always hopping computers and don't have a way to take anything else with me. But for the last few days, it seems like there has been some -significant- slowdown in it. It doesn't matter what computer or network I'm on when I'm playing. It's been running sooo slow, especially when I'm off-Prime.

Anybody know what the hang-up is, because it's really starting to mess me up. I was almost killed by a dream leech yesterday because of it, and that kinda irks me, yanno? glare.gif Any ideas?

Happens a lot actually and doesnt matter where you are.

It's not unique to Nexus, either. It's a characteristic of Java programs in general. It's a very low-performance platform.

Yeah, nexus lags for me too, even though I put my triggers in the <> things... But it seems to fix it when I shrink from the big window to the small window, although it lags there too... Not sure why...

After my third near-death to a leech (and one to a -cow-, for goodness' sake...) I finally decided to retire Nexus and move on to bigger and better things. So I've spent the last... 8 hours or so... playing/coding with Zmud, and I already have a smoother system than I had in my month on Nexus. I'm totally going to get addicted and have to pay to register. Dang it.

A couple of days ago, I was getting some mean lag as well (and I never ever have lag). Was more like aeon in that I would input my command... wait a bit... then it would happen. Not sure if that's normal lag anyways. unsure.gif I'm lag-free as of now.
Diamondais2006-01-07 17:01:38
Anyone know of a free system and mind telling me how to get it?
Strakc2006-01-07 17:04:36
Use mushclient, unlike zmud you dont have to pay to use some of its functions that I know of.
Diamondais2006-01-07 17:16:33
Ill look into it

On the subject of Nexus, is anyone having it so that after something shows up theres an empty line?

kinda like this:

and if so, anyone know how to fix this? (dont tell me to go to Mushclient or Zmud because Im not capable of getting the hang of it.)

Yes, and no I don't think you can fix it, respectively.

MAYBE it happens if you put too many enters in your aliases or something, but that wouldn't explain it in your example.
Acrune2006-01-08 05:08:54
I used gmud for a good while, before I got zmud from a friend. Its nice and simple, although it can't do much. If you aren't into high skill combat where you need a fancy curing system, might be worth checking out.
Diamondais2006-01-08 05:19:07
Only started when I installed Muschclient to try it out..bah
Strakc2006-01-08 16:16:36
If you have specific questions about mushclient I can help you with that, I dont mind helping one bit... just send me a pm and I'll give you my aim, msn, or yahoo so we can talk faster.

I ALWAYS have that little extra space there. Just happened randomly one day and it's been like that forever.
Diamondais2006-01-08 23:32:31
Goes away eventually, Ill check to see if it changed as Dia.

edit: No..not yet. Just weird I guess.
