JensUI_640x480_Beta.zip LAG!? Why?
 

I downloaded this UI earlier. It is the best looking UI I have ever seen! :) But upon downloading it and extracting, then finally loading it, I realized that it caused extreme lag - like Bazaar-quality lag. Has anyone else tried downloading this and had this problem? (Btw it's in her "My Skins" folder.) But anyway, this is just what I'm looking for in a UI, yet when I get it working, it just gives me another problem. :( I love how it looks though, and am not trying to criticize anyone or anything.

My friend suggested it's a problem with my computer (ie not enough ram, etc). Could this be it?

well.. how much ram are you useing? Also might be you video card? just dont know what out knowing anything about your comp.. it might be the ui its self?

I have 256 Ram altogether. (My computer uses DDR ram (I think that's it) And it can't do more than that) :( As for the video card, all I know is that it's Nvidia, I think. :p Sorry, but I'm DEFINITELY not a computer guy. What can I do about the vid. card that could help?

Hmmm.. i load it in my computer and its working fine no lag at all..im running a pen 4, 2g .. 1g of ram.. and GeForce fx 5200 ultra 128mp ddr... it might just be your ram and "or" your video card??

Is there anything I can do about the Video Card? I've heard of "drivers" or something, but I dunno what those are...

Also, btw, my Video Card is a NVidia, I just confirmed it.

If I were to reformat my hard-drive would that help? I don't know how I can possibly speed up my comp. at all. I know hardly anything about technical things like that. But this UI is exactly what I'm looking for and I'm desperate to get it to work! :(

i know you said that about you video card was but it can be a low lvl one since you dont know what one it is could be a gf2 with 32mb of ram?? that would make the game laggy right there?? but i cant be sure.. i know when i loaded it i had no lag what so everwith what i have.


here is the site to get the drivers from

www.nvidia.com

damn thing never works here.. only on other sites... just type it in

Well, I downloaded the latest Driver, but no luck. I'm just going to reformat my hard drive in a few weeks and try again then. Also, I'm emailing the creator asking about it. But thanks for all your help! :)

I'd sooner smash my motherboard, cpu, ram and video card with a hammer then shoot myself in the face than format my harddrive. Every 2 years or so I just buy a new, bigger harddrive, do an exact copy of my old one onto the new one, then put my old one in storage. Have 3 in storage, on a 120 GB now.

P.S. - But hey, that's just me.

I wish I could, but I can't afford that. :(

the solution is most likely this

in game hit CNTL-O

under DISPLAY select VIDEO MODE

change the BIT from 16 to 32

most new UIs use a 32 bit color pallet, the standard uses a 16.. if your running a 32 bit UI on the 16 bit setting, you will see HUGE lag.

try that before reformatting.

Thanks SO MUCH! :) I'm going to try it out ! :) It's nice of you to be so nice after I was rather rude to you yesterday. :( I apologize.

Doh! My setting was already at 32 bit. Tried redownloading, reading readme, etc. then I tried 16 bit color just to check, and still LAGMANIA! :( Is there anything else you can think of?
