Ok, so I rejoined the world of soma yesterday and had a good 4-5 hours planned to grind out what I can..

After about 10-15 mins smacking bugs my client just, well.. stopped!!

All mobs and character animation came to a halt but my character was still free to gracefully roam the lands for a couple minutes until the client closed completely!! It does this consistently, however sometimes I can go for about half hour !!! Woohooo...

I am using a recently formatted laptop so there is no clutter taking up disk space, the laptop has a 1TB memory and runs a what I believe to be more than adequate processor..
The laptop is a few years old however it should have no problems running a game like soma!!

Any ideas for a fix as this has already ruined my return and will bring it to a stop completely if this continues which is sad =(

Thanks in advance guys.

Hi,

Are you running in windowed/fullscreen mode?

Are you using multiple clients?

I enabled UAC

Disabled QoS on nighthawk router

Installed latest .NET framework

Seems to have fixed it

I am running in window mode with a modified resoloution of 1280x720 which I believe to be a stable res.
I am not running multiple clients when the issue happens however with multiple screens loaded it's even worse as expected.

Windows 10
