I am very laggy ingame what is wrong?
There are several potential reasons why this may be:
1) Your connection to the server is very poor, ie you have a slow internet connection/are situated a long distance from the server (which is in London, UK)
2) You computer is using up a lot of resources, try turning off background programs such as MSN to improve performance.:
3) Firewalls can slow the connection or even block certain packets causing strange things to happen so make sure you completely enable Project69 on your firewall.:
4) Mir2 does not support multiple core processors and so they may cause performance problems. Sometimes setting the program affinity to just 1 core will fix the problem but you may need to completely disable a core (please search the troubleshooting forum for more help).:
5) Dual display is also known to cause lag, disable any secondary displays before starting mir.
