A temporal fix for the "Screen freeze and repeat the same frame of hell" in AMD processors.

Hey there, welcome to the Metin2.SG forum, here you can find a lot of interesting stuff, why don't you register your account? It only takes a minute! Click on the "Forum Login or forum-register" button on the top-left corner!

    As I suffer this since I came back to .sg in 2015, had so much frustration which made me quit a ton of times, but metin2 is an addictive bugged monster.
    This is the bug:


    Pardon my lack of pictures, as I have my Windows system in spanish, I can't upload pictures, but I'll try it to be the most understandable.


    For all we know, people with Intel processors don't suffer this bug often, as only does AMD in great part of their processors. Some people do suffer this bug even without AMD products.


    The fix is simple:


    1º: Open your Task Manager.
    2º: Select your window of Metin2 which you wanna manipulate, and right click over it, in that menu click "Go to details"
    3º: Right click again over the marked "metin2client.bin", and click "Set affinity" in the menu.
    4º: You will get a window with boxes, "<All processors>" is the first and the default option, you should click only one core "CPU 'X', (being 'x', 1, 2, 3, 4, if quadcore) and click "ok".
    Once you got a window of metin in one core, if you open other window of metin, you should get it in another core not used, for example I use one window in "CPU 2", and another in "CPU 3".


    Do not use other programs which could use the core metin is using, because you could get the bug again. Every time I've done a DT with youtube open, bug appeared.
    Don't worry if you think this will damage, as it's not permanent and will not damage anything, is a tweak you do every time you want to do a dt or another run, the bug could appear, but I met it rarely now, and maybe is because I left Chrome open.

    Please let me know if it works for you, or if you have something to add. I'm sorry if it is not clear, I'll try to make ilustrative pictures. And I hope this helps. Thanks.

    Edit: It helps but doesn't prevent the appearing of the bug.

    I get this issue! Frustrating as hell and especially trying to explain to someone else what is happening!
    I will try this and hopefully resolve my issues and i will let you know when i get the time :)


    Thanks for the tip! :)

    I'm sad to say that I have gotten this after the tweak. It did only anger me and I played suggestionated and worried, expectating the bug. It helped, but still, I can't enjoy the game if I'm worried if it will happen, I'm tired of it.


    The bug supposedly happens when using the camera or clicking with the mouse after it, this implicates moving and searching. There is people who says it's only because the mouse, but I had it just after choosing character and moving with the keyboard.


    I seriously hope they can fix it, someday.

    Because is not really a bug and it has nothing to do with mouse or keyboard. It has to do with your CPU. Metin2 was developed when the CPU had only 1 core.


    That tecnology was discarded and now we have CPU with multi cores which Metin2 doesn't like much. It made the game worse because altough more powerful, the single cores individualy are much weaker than a unique core cpu used on 2006.


    This problem doesn't occur if you have a strong CPU like I7 6700k or more, because the single cores are powerful enough to handle metin2.
