Wow it's true!

They still lag more than other maps, but a hell of a lot less than they used to. Even my weakest comp, that used to freeze up completely in such maps, can now be used in them. This is happy news indeed!

I certainly didn't have this problem at all but I'm glad for those who have bad computers.

This is certainly good news. I didn't get any insane lag from the three NPC's at all until the RED patch, so I'm glad that they're finally reducing the lag at the very least.

It wasn't too bad on my main PC but my old backup one would nearly die if I spawned in a map with them in it.

Not always bad computers though, its also maple's shitty programming.

No BM fixes. QQ

Fixing town lag is pretty huge.

So that took the majority of the update time?

It has nothing to do with how bad a computer is. I had a beyond godly computer and it did it. I had very weak computers do it less than another computer/laptop. You were just lucky.

I could be in FM in windia/sciana and not lag at all but would because of them crap NPCs.

Really? I hope that it improved now that it's been fixed.

I have a very powerful processor and large RAM on my desktop so the computer specs more or less have something to do with the lag.

Earlier when I went into the Event map I didn't lag at all. It was pretty laggy before this patch though, even for the PC I use.

Intel Core i7-4770K and 8GB RAW isn't crap , everything else is top notch too. It wasn't bad lag but still lag compared to anywhere else in Maple, period.
