Running a game on VDS

Post by dedi »

Hi there,
At the beginning I want to say it's 1st time I use VDS. I bought it to set bot which plays game (Tibia). I cannot bot at home, because everytime I login to game I get ping by enemy.

And here comes my problem. Tibia isn't advanced game. Even old computer can handle it. But when I try to login and play, the game is unplayable due to really low fps - around 5 or less.

Actually it uses DirectX5, but best is DirectX9 engine. Is there any way to fix it?

VDS's do not have powerful GPUs. If you could disable the graphics rendering all together that would be your best option. It is not practical to run a 3d game on a VDS, and I am surprised it ran at all for you.

Well, tibia isn't 3D Game. Just type "Tibia" on youtube and you will see.
How can I disable graphic rendering ? Would be nice if you could explain.

By disabling graphics rendering I mean it won't render the visuals of the game, I am not sure if this is even possible. Like I said the graphics on a VDS is very weak, I doubt there is much you can do to get the game running any better than it currently is.

What is your CPU usage like? Maybe you could get better FPS if the game is using up all of your cpu.

You mean, you are receiving a network attack because you bot, and so you bring it to a shared environment, where an outage affects other people? :roll:
