yeah, the upgrade to upload speed thing is the first stage of the upgrade to 100MB, according to the lass at Virgin.

 

I'll be getting the new router thing from VM next week too (integrated modem and router, it's like having ADSL again!) so if that was being flaky (it probably was) then that'll fix that too.

 

And then my connection will be ready to go straight to the 100MB service (10MB upload :O ) as soon as it's available in Edinburgh. Hurrah!

 


Oh, and the lag was previously when monsters and animals were on. Not sure if the lag is CPU speed, bandwidth or both. Probably both.

Did you try changing the graphics to FAST and view distance to something not-very-far-away? Plays fine on my lappy like that, and I suspect yours is much better.

I believe we're both on the same upgrade path. Mine will be going to 100 soon I hope.

I wouldn't be too surprised if yours was better.

Just bought a Q6600 on eBay for probably too much money (92 inc postage :\ ). Damn impulse buys.

 

Where's cheap for RAM these days?

I HAVE BOUGHT MINECRAFT :@

And I have dug really far down into a big cave that had ZOMBIES :& in it.

Then I dug some more and discovered LAVA :O

And (I'm guessing) OBSIDIAN, which my feeble iron pick could not do anything but (eventually) destroy :(
