Yes if you face away from an object that's giving you lag it will stop the lag. Often if I am in a room that I get Lag in sometimes you can move your camera around and find a sweetspot....sometimes that might be directly above you. Yes, unfortunately, we can not build for everyone using a 2GB RAM 32bit computer from 2004

i guess the best thing we builders can do, is to try and space out our hi-spec objects, not placing everything in one spot.

Thanks Alexa, I am curious now, if you have an object in your club or anywhere that has a high object count, will the person in the club only experience lag only when that object comes into their view? Example, In your case would the DJ experience more lag than anyone that doesn't have your console in their view?

Hi Dallas Great question and one a builder should consider every when they build a room. Katsu is right in that the 64bit version of the game will help with lag but a lot of us have been using 64bit for a while now via Alex Modz so its kind of already tested. My advice when building a room....first you have to ask yourself what are you building!! If its a house for you and a few friends then 1500kb is fine, if its a nightclub and you want 100+ people there...keep it below 700kb Also a note on the file size. Every object you add to your room adds to the file Size (the actual physical Size of the build has little to do with it) So, Small details dramatic increases File Size so you have to ask yourself...Do I really need to make the most awesome DJ console for my night club with 150 buttons and flashing lights....that is 230KB!!! or do it just use the default DJ console because...only the DJ will see it anyways. I have seen night clubs where a builder has spent....days creating the most amazing feature on the roof...but in 3DX...hardly anyone looks up!! I have seen night clubs where the builder has hand made 300 different bottles for the Bar....no one is sitting at the bar. I have seen houses where the builders has made the full internal workings of an oven then....closed the door so you can not see it. Lag does restrict us and it varies greatly depending for every user and what their computer can handle. As a builder, you need to learn to manage your build and put in the details where it will have the most effect. Nym
