What are the differences between the 4 options I have?

 

Direct 3D HAL

Direct 3D T&L HAL

AMD Radeon ™ R6 Graphics

AMD Radeon ™ R6 Graphics

 

Also, why does my graphic card appear twice?

I can't really help with your card appearing twice, but Direct 3D HAL means it uses hardware accelerated rasterization. That means that its using your display adapters GPU instead of your computers CPU to calculate some of the lighting, transformation and rasterization methods. Direct 3D T&L HAL means it should use all of the transformations and lighting with your GPU.

 

These days, neither one of these options really matter, since our computers are a lot more powerful than they used to be, it used to be a lot bigger issue when 3dfx Voodoo was the coolest display adapter on the market.

 

But if you're experiencing major input lag after opening more than one ragnarok client at the same time, you might want to try to change the selection to see if every one of those options performs similarly.

Thanks for the answer!

 

I just tested all four options and they seem pretty similar. Anyone having different results?

They select the mode used to render the graphics. Depending on the specifics of your setup, one or more of these options may not work, or they may have different performance.

Change it if you have graphics problems that don't have obvious solutions (ie, shotgun debugging). For example, this guy: http://forums.warppo...omini-bug-help/ on his computer, with D3D HAL (without T&L) when he used gloria domini, his user interface scrunched up into a misshapen and unusable polygon.

Open the appropriate file from your client installation folder:

Renewal: Setup.exe
Classic: Setup_Classic.exe
