Speeding Up FFXI

SO im trying to trio box FFXI on mycrappy lappy at owork
Old 1st gen I5 with 2 cores+SMT
4gb of ram
Intel ondie GPU

its choppy as F... doing raja naga its down to wt looks like 1-3fps

things ove dine so fa
- runing at 640x480
- disabled weather
- disabled shadows
- disabled logger plugin
- took clipping plane all the way down
- took number of characters all the way down
- disable windows animation and chatlog resizing
- set chat backgroudn to 2 ( no transparancy)
- Disabled SFX for other players and disabled all in combat
- disabled supersamplings and gamepad in windower

- /hidetrust on


anything left I can do to try to recover some FPS when the combat starts ?

do you have /ignore faith turned on?
that hides the trust that everyone has out after doing that my stuff wasn't so lagy and i play 4 chars doing it.

/ignore faith
or
/ignorefaith

The first one does not do anything in chatlog.
2nd one seems to be only targeting (Which is nice) accordingto chatlog

but yeah getting rid of other ppls trust would be awesome

/ignorefaith or /ignoretrust is for targeting
/hidefaith or /hidetrust is for hiding

need a plugin that automati disabled weather shadows and trust aand rescue clipping plane and # of character when fps drops below 20

/console fillmode 1

Helps reduce lag

Dropped 25fps to below 10

I tjink the issue he is that dropping textures removes all the culling functionality so we are actually rending alot more objects.
Diffrent scens where there are not a lot of scenery hiden behind wall the results might be revresed

Thank you. Pretty awesome thingy.
But im trioboxing wnd it seems to destroy /follow as well

Seriously your not going to get FFXI to work well on that old Intel iGPU, those things sucked for anything beyond facebook browsing.

1st Gen i5? It runs on Windows XP?

Not sure if it could work on a very old laptop but you can try dgvoodoo. My laptop that used winxp worked fine without much but it had a dedicated video card. My current 10 inch netbook needs a bit of modifications for run above 20fps.

Tri boxing on ild Intel GPU? Maybe if you put some high octane gas on it and set it on fire then it would boost the speed.

If I recall correctly the igpus on the first gen i series had a lot of driver issues with XI, I would start there.

I multiboxed on a first gen i7 but it had dedicated graphics.
