[b]When:[/b]
After the Jett Renegades patch, both before and after the following unscheduled maintenance.

[b]Tried:[/b]
netsh winsock reset (may have fixed a few of the graphics issues, disconnection continues to occur)
Restarting
Redownloading
Adding Firewall Exceptions
Adding AntiVirus Exceptions
Updating Drivers
Using both Game Launcher as well as Website startup
Others with better specs have reported also having the same problem. Windows XP?
[b] System Specs:[/b]
Intel 45 Express Chipset
NVIDIA Quadro NVS 160M
Windows XP OS Service Pack 3
Wireless Connection
2GB Ram
2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor

I am still trying to find a workaround, I may as well just give up until Nexon fixes the issue..

Edit: I am using a laptop, so replacing anything inside is what I don't plan to do.
Edit:: This thread will be updated as I attempt more bits.
Edit::: After the maintenance July 12, I can't even get past the Lumiere Ship without dcing during the ride. Sends me back to 3 minutes again.. unless I do that alien quest to tele to NLC.

There is a temporary fix that will stop you from d/cing or at least make that time you can stay on before d/cing longer so you can finish the boss run or whatever your doing. Switching your graphics quality (doesn't matter if you make it higher or lower, it just has to be different) will usually stop d/cing. Mobs may continue to flicker, but the chances of d/cing will be less. So far it works for me and it is the only reason I can finish things like Horntail if I'm not soloing it.

[quote=v3gGaR]I always thought I was the only one having this problem but after reading this thread I became a bit relieved that it wasn´t my system which has a problem.

These are the instances I am currently having:
1. I D/C two times in a row with a 30 second inerval, then the third one closes the application;
2. Black Log-in area;
3. Blank background in the world and character selecting screen;
4. I lag at most towns, usually the bigger ones;
5. And, one time when I was at LHC crockies, I lagged too much as if i could only move once every min, then Mobs starting to turn white, like as if its graphics are blank
as well as players and their skills, what remained is just me and the background together with the platforms, and when I tried to log out, there comes the black log-in screen again.

What do you think guys? Is it maple or do our computers have something in common (specs) which are a disturbance in playing this game?
I actually dont know when it started for I have played maple like a week before jett´s patch. Hope Nexon fix this soon.

EDIT: Just to add, sometimes, right after the initial start up of the program begins (after the phantom clip), program closes. I hate it when it happens. Have to open maple several times.[/quote]
Exactly this, and also it laggs out in most of the bosses including dojo and Zakum. Bosses flicker from transparent and normal then maple freezes.

yeah the same thing is going on for me. And typically when its my third D/C maple just closes down.

The issues are getting even worse unfortunately.
Disconnecting much more quickly, even during login screen. Unplayable.
Should start a thread on nexon forums..

That happens to me, but only after zakum :o

What happens after zakum:

I can't attack or buff
I d/c after a few mins
The character select place turns transparent

Anyway, I laughed at the Lumiere Ship. It happened to me and I just laughed.

Hmm.. I only get the d/c back to login screen thingie, but no visual glitches at all. Windows XP desktop computer, and my specs are lower than yours. I think it might be a problem from Nexon's side, because others have said that their computers have higher specs but have the same issues.

I have this same problem as well. But I found out that restarting my computer fixes it for a while until I do some more "RAM heavy" things such as zakum runs and such. Then it'll happen again and I just reboot. Simple fix for me.

I have the exact same problem as you, and it happens to my 32bit XP desktop too, but no problems on my Win7 Laptop.

This happens to all Windows XP users. I must say, it's very annoying.

I had experienced the same on my XP desktop, I think for me it was after doing the PZak PQ it glitches MS. I had to exit MS completely and restart it, and once I even needed to reboot.

[quote=chudi]@banditweido: Well theres your problem, im assuming its an old laptop cuz i dont feel like deciphering your specs. So if buying a new form of computer is outside your budget, start looking for beta drivers to help or move up your OS as i said before[/quote]

Kynlie above has stated having the same issue with a more powerful rig.
Currently looking through the NVIDIA beta drivers at the moment.

Right, my bad. I should tell you I'm on a laptop as well, integrated graphics chip.. Opening this up is not what I have in mind. My budget is quite low as well.
Though I just updated my OS, problems still occur

[quote=chudi]New graphics card, and not update drive, buy something from the past 2 years[/quote]

Well, if I was playing before the Jett Patch just fine without the graphic glitches, don't believe a new graphics card will apply.
When I do a restart of my system, the game works just fine for bout the 10 or so minutes, no graphics bugs.. til after.

The problem is just getting ridiculous and unable to play for a good 10 minutes. Sent a ticket for false hopes.

I'm having the same problem, since one of the patches leading up to or including Jett. I'm actually running Win7 already, so that's probably not a solution for me.
My error message said something about lack of memory before it opened a dialog for me to send a report to Nexon.

Just tried few mins ago, didn't work unfortunately. Maybe it is the os causing the problem..

I'm still having the same problem today, looks like they haven't noticed. I have heard that maybe windows xp service pack 3 was causing the problem, and a install of windows 7 did help, though I haven't seen it for myself.
