Lag

My game is lagging, you know skipping. I have a 566mhz with 384mb ram, a 64mb video card, full install... that's even above the recommended sys requirements. Why would it be skipping, what can I turn off so that it runs better (without decreasing visuals MUCH)?

Also, I read on a web page that there is a button that lets you find hidden things, the treasures of a fallen enemy, how do I turn this on and off? I'm in the torture chamber place and the walls are making it hard to see the bodies.

Thanks.

Also, also...

How do I multi class (when making my PC)? I was a clicked on all the class buttons but they just opened up the Kit section, the Multi class button was never lit.

Odd. Try making sure that you dont have something in the background. Usualy turn out to be the cos when it comes on all of a sudden. Other than the the best trick is to turn off 3d acceleration, you get used to the visuals after a while and the frame rate usualy rises. Or turn down pathfinding.

The TAB key will highlight items on the ground, containers and doors. But only if you have ToB installed.

I never multiclass so I dont know, the manual covers it though. One thing - multiclassing is for *NON-HUMANS* only. Half-elf is probably hte most human-like of the non humans, ALthough your character will be more effective if you choose a more appropriate race. Dwarf fighter, gnomish theif, elven mage, you know what I mean?

Are you playing in Multiplayer? If so, move the savegame from mpsave to save folder. That solved similar problem of mine.
