A lag fix

[Llyweln]

if you are looking for a single button toggle macro:

/script TextLogSetEnabled( "Combat", not TextLogGetEnabled( "Combat" ) )

It turns off your combat logs. I ran this all day yesterday, and the only time it really got laggy was in Caledor yesterday eve (when dallmar was doing his mass pulls)

That turns it on and off right?

So you would lose what hit for X dmg, dealt X dmg kinda stuff? what in all would i be losing in lamens terms

[Llyweln]

No, you see nothing on combat logs at all. Nothing is saved. And yes, it turns it off and on. Also when you log out or ld it resets. Does help with load times too. Seems one of ours who had constant 3 min login into scs......no probelm now.

I tried this out and you lose the ability to use autodismount add-on. You also loose the xp/rp/inf logging as well

[Voltari]

Is there a way to turn it back on? And what is the command, exactly - please. :)

I found that /script TextLogSetEnabled( "Combat", false) turns it off and /script TextLogSetEnabled( "Combat", true) turns it on.

Related to this, even if you dont want to lose your log...

Apparently minimizing the size of the log ease the lag problem, you get few lines though so in a real fight with lots of people you cant scroll high enough to see what hit you.... but when in smaller skirmish youll see.

To be honest I prefer to hit my opponent 2 more times because I know where he really is and win the battle and not worry about my absent log... then have my log tell me where I lagged badly and why I lost the fight.

[Llyweln]

How do you minimize the size of the log? :) Yes, I do wanna know what finaly kills me, but I love my auto-dismount too much :)

I found a mod at curse gaming that disables combat log for you so you dont have to type that all the time.

And yes so far....I have had ZERO disconnects all evening ...usually i get 2-3

I found that /script TextLogSetEnabled( "Combat", false) turns it off and /script TextLogSetEnabled( "Combat", true) turns it on.

Yes, but


/script TextLogSetEnabled( "Combat", not TextLogGetEnabled( "Combat" ) )

acts as a toggle because


not TextLogGetEnabled( "Combat" )

returns the opposite of whatever the current value is, thus setting the "true" or "false" argument dynamically based on the current status.
