About a week ago it was the first time I noticed, something was strange: Prugor, always walking around wasn't walking straight anymore, he went 3 steps and jumped back one, again 3 steps one back and so on.

Later I was with my Skald in Wilton, sticking on the Leader while roaming around. I was speeding with a feeling like I was overloaded (i was not), all the time I had sticklost and the group had to loop. I run with endu-speed after them, no chance to stay in stick - always sticklost after some seconds...

I restarted my computer and returned to my group. Now I wasn't to slow anymore - I was faster than everyone. They thought I'm running with endu, making a poor joke.

Well, I never had it again, to be slower than the others, but I am always to fast. When I stick, I see at about twice a second what is behind of me, as I would turn, then again the one I stick - back and forth back and forth... This is really making headache, I cant stick like this anymore. Also the others are jumping like Prugor, everyone in the group. But when I don't stick, I'm to fast.

Has anybody an idea what this could be? Its really annoying!

I didn't change anything on my computer in the last month, no new programs nor did I delete something. Was there an update at about one week ago? Are there more players with this problem? Please help me, I'm fed up with this...

i saw something similar to this happen yesterday, it looked like a latency issue maybe.

I was stacked very close to someone, running behind them back styling away, and they slowly warped ahead of me until they were first at max melee range, and then out of range all together. They looked like they were running normally, but they would make very short jumps from what appeared to be latency, making them just slightly faster than myself.

I'd guess lag based on what I saw. Dunno, what your issue is, or if it is related.

I've heard you mention this speed increase before I wasn't aware but it doesn't surprise me. A whole host of old games have issues with modern processors. I'm wondering how many people take advantage of this speed boost and what the exact settings are.
There will be a group of people out there who will want this realm to be entirely Mythic-like. Exactly like vanilla, drop rates/xp rates, basically everything and you will not be able to please them unless it is exactly like vanilla.

These people have their nostalgia goggles on so tight it's cutting off the bloodflow to their brain and they believe that vanilla was perfect and nothing was wrong with it.

Its very important that DAoCPortal can work flawless or it can get problems. Don't mess with the game.dll too much.
It's done when it's done. Thanks for your patience.

i thought this was caused by manually down-patching the game.dll to 1.109 instead of allowing the DAOCPortal to keep the DLL at 1.113?

DAoCPortal does some black magic to the 1.113 dll so be sure to not put the dll there yourself. Update to current live and let DAoCPortal do the work.

Me and some other ppl cant get 1.110+ to work without geting insane lagg when mouse cursor is visible. Only 1.09 works for me. I havent noticed any speed problem so i dont think its game.dll related. Lots of ppl still run old game.dll bcs of various problem with both new client and / or retarded ati drivers so should be alot of ppl with speed problems then but it seems to be rare.

Really hope u keep the choise to let us use 1.09 bcs the combination 1.110+ + ati drivers + windows 8 isnt working so good :(

Sounds like the Win8.1 problem. Do you use it?

No, normal W8. Old versions work fine but with 1.110+ i hit a wall. Think alot of ppl have this issue but dont know about it bcs of running daoc on low res (old habbit). I run daoc in 2560 x 1440 and there u notice it alot.
