Did they fix some memory leaks? - SaptaZapta - 2011-08-25
It was getting really bad. It had gotten so I could not get through a normal zak solo unless I did it on a clean reboot with absolutely nothing running but Maple, I switched graphics quality at every body change, and even then Zak would go invisible at second body and most of my dialog boxes would be invisible as well by the end of the run (15-20 minutes).
If I didn't take all those precautions I'd just d/c during the run.
And if other people came along and used their skills, it was worse.
Same thing for HT and VL.
But recently, maybe after the CTF patch, I noticed Zak wasn't going invisible anymore. So I have slowly been experimenting with dropping some precautions, and lo and behold, I no longer need any of them. Can just play like a normal person, the way I haven't been able to in a long long time. Get scary lag spikes at Zak when a skill or mob first appears, but no transparent mobs or windows, and no disconnects. Von Leon also works fine. Haven't had a chance to HT in a while (damn glitch).
MS still does disconnect randomly, especially if I spend any length of time at LHC, so not all is perfect, but...
TL; DR: I'm no longer getting graphic glitches at bosses on Windows XP. How about you?

They might have fixed it in some instances. I know I still get graphical glitches when I play on my friend's Windows XP desktop at other places like the Master Monster maps.

I haven't noticed as many glitches as well, but I attributed that to going to Windows 7. Would've been better if I stayed on XP to try, but oh well.

The only one left that i know of is von leon, but luckily you can kill him easily with a small group.

Training at Future Ereve on Windows 7 is the only problem I have since I'll randomly disconnect here and there.

Zak goes invisible on me, but that's extremely rare.It's quite common with Von Leon though if it attacks.

I would say its worse since monster book, before I would never get graphical glitches and when it d/c me it would just freeze and I had to close it with task manager but that was mostly at PvP and one time that I tried Pap (since then I use another comp to pap so I don't know if its safe), but now just walking around makes me get graphical glitches, I'm using XP.

It's gotten a lot better for me. I used to leak every hour or so at LHC.

Funny, it's the opposite for me

My Windows 7 graphical glitches that make Zak and HT flicker and disconnect me were fixed long ago when they announced the Windows 7 bossing fix.
