I generally play with one client but when issuing prizes etc then use a 2nd. I've found that as long as my executables themselves (not just the shortcuts) are running in Windows 95 mode. I'm fine. Also on Sky broadband and play at the standard 800x600 in window mode.

resolution_width=800
resolution_height=600
always_draw=1
game_resolution_width=800
game_resolution_height=600
resolution_up_scale=1
fps_cap=1
fps_cap_limit=30
Chat_font_size=14

Using a Radeon HD7700 (yes, old) graphics card and when running winver from the startmenu see Windows 10 1909 (latest). I do wonder if the client itself has no / too little tolerance for latency/missed packets (something thats only occured since moving the server to another continent).

Don't ever have an issue with Dcing. I was on windows 7 until the support ended now Windows 10. Play on 1920x1080 (nice big screen so you can see incoming pkers etc). Only thing I can't do since they made healing 4x quicker and that is leave a character healing whilst playing another character. The char can move about etc but doesn't heal kind of frozen. Got to 65 int before 4x increase and done 0.8 since as it freezes within 5 minutes. Tried all the fixes of windows 95 mode (which does the other affinity fix btw changing to 95 sets your comp to 0 affinity)

haven't tried healing for a few weeks , but quite often I get....
1.log onto 2nd character, and immediately need task manager and dc it.. it doesn't work... its there, but cant do anything with it..
2. checking ur quests seems to bring this on . .1 client or more
3.whilst playing.. seems to happen every hour or so.... screen freezes.. cant do anything.. like a big lag ..last 3-4-5-6 seconds... then it kicks back in and all is ok again.. bit worrying if sum1 was to come and kill u and maybe u drop items..
Everything is generally working ok, but a few little things like that make u feel a bit nervy

Yea death has, or can have pretty dire consequences on soma. To death drop cos of some weird dc and drop gear you’ve worked on for months/years through no fault of your own, would be horrendous.
