advance graphics disabled on log out
« on: January 26, 2010, 04:51:16 PM »
not sure why this is going on, new thing to me, but when I log out of game I get "advance graphics disabled" message
then next   time I log in my graphics are poor and I have to go to advance tab and select most of them
its only just started happening, just a bit boring to not have settings all set up
any one got an idea why?
Propably me needing to select something or other lol
cheers for the help

I've noticed it happens when you simply log out of an arena.  If I use Alt+F4 (which I normally just for simplicities sake) the graphics stay at what they should, if I go into the Arena select and log out it turns them off.  It's annoying since if I switch an arena (Ex. MW to SEA) I then have to turn the settings back on.  I know there is a built-in feature that if the Frame-rate is low for 10 seconds it disables them, but I know for a fact it takes less then 10 for me to sign out of an arena (I have an OSD time display, takes me 5-6 seconds due to bad ping).  I'm guessing it just thinks "Hey low FR" from the second you hit "Log out" to when you get back to the main clipboard due to the loading times.
