I installed my EQ from the original discs and patched up to the ones specified in the install guide. I followed the setup instructions exactly, running the WR patcher, copying the various files to the appropriate directories, etc. When I first ran the game, I got the whole "can only support 2 models" thing, clicked next, then read the posts and went back and re-did the graphics card select and models and pressed enter rather than clicking next. Was able to log in, create a character and start in the game.
However, the problem is this... even before I clicked to add the luclin models, I was getting severe lag issues on the graphics side, even with all of the options set to their lowest settings. (640x480, 0 clip plane, simple sky, etc etc.) I am talking the kind of jerkiness that I saw in the Bazaar when playing EQ live. I was able to play EQ Live without these issues using the same graphics card, and only had the lag in the more graphically intense Luclin or very crowded zones.
Is this problem part of playing on an EQEmu server, or am I having some kind of issue with the WR client?
Suggestions?
