Character Priority Visualisation

[DoctorMog]

Priority needs to be:

1. Party Members
2. Monsters
3. Free Company Members
4. Linkshell Members
5. Other players.

I can't even find my own party members to heal.

Speaking of which, where is my option to turn off loading other players? Why do I even need to see them at events like this?

Definitely a correct priority list. I'm not sure why this wasn't included at launch and I really want a dev to make note of plans to address / looking into it, etc. They need to be way more diligent on showing public understanding of the issues we bring up. These fates are rather unplayable for some people and, on the topic of fates, raises should give you substantial credit!

Fully agree. That's a great priority list.

It's definitely not a client issue. I can rock these lagless at the 60fps cap, and mobs/players are still invisible.

Your misinterpreting the word client.

The client we are talking about it the program you use to play the game. This is what hold the mass information of the game. The server holds only information of travel paths and other various little things and relays it back to the client.

It IS a client issue.

The server ONLY processes data such as;

Player/Enemy movements, actions, gear/appearance data, chat.
This is all the 'invisible' number crunching that is being sent between You > Server > You.


ALL RENDERING is done client-side on your computer, this includes;
Animations
Graphics
Sounds

The game basically says "There are 100 things on screen at once, therefore the rest I won't render", this is easily fixed for FATE bosses, they just need to tell the game.

Can I prioritize the rendering so I see the women first?
