#36300304623 08/16/2007 11:31:04 Using macros to switch loadouts

This is causing me serious lag problems.

Everytime I switch loadouts at the hardline using my macros, I get serious lag thereafter until I relog the game. I'm talking 30-40% worse.

Is it just me and my machine? I don't see how, P4-3.0, 3Gb DDR, ATI X850XT plat, Cable internet.

But if there is something I can do, please let me know.

Thanks!

Whats the macro doing? just executing a /loadlo command or a lot more or something completely different?

If you /loadlo while having your Abilities panel (O) open, it will lag you immensely. If you close the abilities sidebar before using /loadlo, it should go quickly.

Is this what you're experiencing?

I use /loadlo macros and haven't experienced any lag really.  It's pretty instantaneous for me.   And I never have my (O) panel open, so that might be it for you.

I think I get the same lag when I have the ability tree windows open at a hardline.

Hmm, I'll try to only switch loadouts with the Abilities panel closed.

Yeah, the /loadlo only executes my abilities loading, no other macros. But, the lag doesn't go away after the /loadlo executes (although it hangs wickedly during, for a good 10 seconds), it always lasts until I relog.

I wonder if I should unload my current loadout, then hit the macro?

Also, never upload bits/frags/codes while looking at the Marketplace. The lag thereafter is insane.
