8 is amazing for a win95/98,me machine, machines generally start to run out of resources at about 5. well, it was 5 when i last checked a long time ago, maybe the client is more efficient since then and doesn't use so many resources. note, no known limit for win2k/nt/xp

Well, I can normally run 4... to be able to log onto 5.. I have to close out AIM.

312mb ram....can log on about 4-5...but I stay on longer if I log on 3 crits + change text buffer down to 2k (help when you're moving too fast)

Logged on 64 before with XP.. Haven't tried partying them yet and moving.. But I think that might be pushing my luck.

I run win98 on my own comp (which I miss lots), and I try not to log on more than 3 crits. With 3, I have virtually no lag. 4 works too, but lagging slightly, 5 on a good day. I tried 6 and 7 before, but if I do that, I have a hard time moving around and usually lose 3 or 4 crits while running through the sewers.

i got winxp(256MB ram) and i can run maybe 4 without lag... granted i have a 128k connection in New Zealand, but still... i think the most ive ever had on winxp was 26, and that was like :O:O:O:O:O:O:O:O:O with the lag, back on topic... i think the most i could ever have on win98 was 2, that was when i was on 56k... the lag then was also very :O:O:O:O:O:O:O:O:O .. lolz

wow, i guess i'm gifted. i'm on cable though, maybe that has something to do with it. it isn't anything big, just a local internet company.

-nod archie-

and towards the end of the time i had 98 i could run 8, i just crashed nm if ppl showed up on square with me because it overloaded my comp....now i constantly have on 12 alts for bosses and training...today i had on 12 sitting waiting for time mage, 4 in a party headed for bandit leader, 1 that invised them, and another that gave the leader some gold...

I've never tested the most i could run..but today when i had those 18 up i also was downloading 3 songs on grokster (grokster alone being opened on windows 98 is killer to it..same on xp, that nuts lags stuff up) and had up aim and some stuff....and nm site...ya..windows xp is the shiznit.

I've been able to run up to 5-6 alts with win98 and 32mb of ram, now i have 128mb ram and i can run 8 alts, but they cant be near eachother, or my computer weirdly decides to lag....(as long as they are on different squares im fine)
