The only thing I've done so far is use M1 for pet swap and M2 for weapon swap. I'll definitely take some of these tips and make more changes.

I received the same Graphics Driver warning with NVIDIA version 301.42. It's current public version - but I went ahead and updated to the beta drivers - version 304.79 and the message went away.

Pretty big update available right now too, as well as a nifty notice that tells you if your detected graphics card has issues with the program.


Are you referring to the message that just popped up when i opened client telling me that my system does not meet min. requirements (even though it does), then lets me go right along and patch?

Some good news! ANet has announced what they will do about server transfers in the beginning stages of the game :).
With the game just around the corner, I'm sure there are a few questions and concerns out there. For one, I know several people learned too late that simply trying to create a character on a server locks you into that server, and deleting your character won't fix that. This was very frustrating for my friends, guildmates, and allies during the first two beta weekends, but ArenaNet understands the situation.

First of all, players will be able to move servers at will for a while after release so that they can play with their friends. Since the game is launching with the ability to switch servers, it should come as no surprise that, in the event that ANet needs to open new servers, players will immediately be able to transfer servers (for free if you're coming from select crowded realms). People also have the option to "guest" on servers, allowing them to play with friends from other servers (unless you want to enter WvWvW with them, in which case, you will need to switch servers). That still doesn't fix the "Oops! I created on the wrong server and have to pay for a transfer" situation, so Mike said that ArenaNet will have a warning up after release so that new players will understand what might lock them into a server. However, people playing the beta test will notice that the warning has already been implemented!

Just so you know.. I don't think it'll be all rainbows and butterflies because of a few more GLBT guilds.. I just think they will give us a larger network to play with when we get to the hard stuff.. as well as a few more friendly faces... I have a hard time seeing the negative of being on a more friendly GLBT server.. in LotRO it worked out rather well..

and don't worry I'm fully aware no matter where we go there will be haters.. trust me you won't be disappointed even on a GLBT server, there will be all the usual intolerance. I think you over estimate our numbers.. even all the GLBT guilds combined will be a drop in the bucket.. Your examples seem to assume we will have our own server cut off from the rest of the world.. no.. that is not how it'll be.. it simply will be just a tad friendlier.. that's all..

Overall, these threads of statements made by these intelligent people are great and as a general rule I very much agree with the mood and spirit of their conversation.

(This was actually a comment I made about some other people discussing their own server-situation and concerns. I've brought it back to apply this/my statement to this thread.)

After (ALL) that I have read on the subject of selecting "just the right" server for us....it becomes very evident that it's "STILL" going to be a very long time with many changes before we see if the decision was made well ... or not so well.

My humble advice: When in doubt roll the dice / flip a coin whatever to make it easy or easier than it has been anyway to choose a server...."


After all I've read here in these posts alone...I almost felt stupid that I said this could be as easy as flipping a quarter! But ladies and gentlemen..... I see nothing better to rescue us from the harsh reality of... "THIS" vs "THAT."

How was Eternal Cove Chosen? I didn't get to beta in time to be with you or on that server....so I'm curious as to what process SV went through before this server was chosen? If you end up saying a lot of gay people just liked the name and went there.....I am going to come back here and say.....see this is much easier than you thought!

Halish / tennek's points (as well all of the others) are clear and are valid in every way possible. So if they are both right equally (and they are) then how is one to find one outcome...with two opposite answers or feelings to a solution.

My answer: because gay people can do this extremely well.....

Look at the names provided to us nearest launch date very carefully...and the "one" name that speaks to your heart that says...this will be our home.

PUSH THE BUTTON....and lets go show them what we can accomplish rather than safe-guarding and protecting what is in reality....a far bigger issue than we alone or with others hope to manage to our outcome/satisfaction.

I'm thInking sylvari ranger as my main. I'm very much in love with nature and all its beauty and ferocity. Also, I just love animals and anything with a pet system I'm all over that. Yes, I realized I disregarded the necros. Which I might have a charr necro IDK. But I defs thinking an asura elementalist and a hunan theif as my alts. I like having varitey in case I gets too baire with one or we meed something more specific.

Also, love captain planet. Idk who started that but it was amazing ;) and we should be friends. Lol also, now the theme song is stuck in my head.

Re: Help me with something xD (graphics related)

August 14 2012
This may or may not work for you.

You can try using Lucid Virtu MVP. It's a software that essentially forces the integrated graphics to process the repetitive rendering leaving your discrete graphics card to do the important work. You may see some improvements. Your mileage may vary.

You can find that here: Link to Softpedia

This is software end-user consumers can't purchase--it's typically licensed to specific motherboard manufacturers. I'm not seeing that your motherboard officially supports this on Asrock's website, but there are other manufacturers with the B75 chipset with the support, so the outlook is good.

And the link maybe an evaluation copy :unsure:
