I recently heard over on the PW Admin roundtable that just one person using overrides can lag a whole server. Anyone have any information on the subject?

well, it depends what you have got in override, custom heads are bad, hairstyles not, but anyway i cleaned my override folder and left only BG interface which defenetly does not causes lag. Anyway - please add all seven hairstyles that i posted, because then everyone who is using hairstyle overrides can clean their folder, his hair will be seen to all, and to player.
ps i played for hours with all hairstyles and BG interface in my override - there were no lags, then they appear when someone log in. I think it will be better for everyone, if players, who have overrides, post honestly here what do they exactly have and links to the vault, where they got their files for override.
aye - portraits in a portraits folder can cause lag as well.

I dont know if they cause lag, but im taking BOGUS's word for it. But i wish we had some better hairs as well. OBE's hairs are so ugly...i mean, we cant even make a char with really long hair. Sucks. But if new hair can lag the server, then to hell with them lol

It seems a bit of a stretch. That one person would have to have a lot to lag the whole server you would think.

I don't know what you guys use in the override directory, cause mine is always empty. ;D The custom content I always put on the Hak directory... As for the topic in question, I think it's quite impossible because the lag is caused by the amount of information you send to the server, then if you can't see the custom content unless you have it installed, the server is not downloading anything from your directories... if my thoughts are correct ;D
