I have been seeing alot of complaints about queue times and want to start this thread so we can list the good servers for new players or people willing to reroll. Only list servers where your average queue time is under 10 mins pls.
Server Name Prime time Off Peak Hours Side
Dark Craig (Open RvR) 2 mins 15 mins Destruction
Volkmar (Core) 2 mins 10 mins Order
Roll a Character on Dark Craig or Volkmar either side has very short queues, I wait about 2 mins on average and even in the middle of the night I have never waited more than 15 mins.

I take 0 credit for 95% of these fixes. Feel free to add more fixes. I will add them into this post.
Before you start tweaking:
1. Run a full up to date virus scan. (If you need a good free one, download AVG anti-virus).
2. Run a full up to date anti spyware scan. (For good free ones download spybot and ad-aware.)
3. Download up to date drivers for everything video, sound, etc. Video is the most important one though. It is HIGHLY recommended that you DE-INSTALL drivers FIRST. Then proceed to installing your new versions
4. Defragment your hard drive(s).
Let the tweaking begin:
1.
read this link to fix nvidia card settings
http://www.warhammeralliance.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=110288
These fixes are located under user settings file.
2. If you want increased FPS in the game (if you are one of the unlucky few who have FPS problems) just go to your WAR directory and go to the user directory. In the user directory there is a file called Usersettings.xml, edit that file and edit one of the perfcustom 1 or 2 lines, change lightmaps to false and Specular to false, keep everything else the same (highest even).
Now boot up the game and go to user settings, change to Custom 1 or 2 under graphics settings (whichever one you changed in the usersettings.xml file), Wallah! FPS increases across the board. Trust me every friend that plays and most people on here or elsewhere have said it fixes their issues. You can also alt tab back and forth fine as well. Try it out and enjoy the FPS gains.
3. Open your USERSETTING.xml file and under Custom 1, its a couple lines down,
Change:
textureCache="1.00"
And modified it to:
textureCache="3.00" or 4 or 5 depending on your card.
so if your card has 768 try "1.5" "1.25" for 512. I think 1.00 is for 256 meg.
Try a couple different values slowly increasing the number but Id try the baseline #s right above this line first.
4. THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT ONE:
buff refresher add on, DOWNLOAD THIS:
http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/13745/
To install this AddOn, simply create an "Interface" folder in your base directory, and an "AddOns" folder in the newly created interface folder. Unzip addon into "AddOns" folder.
5. Install this too it changes your party and raid interface and cleans it up, reduces lag:
http://war.curse.com/downloads/details/13730/
open up warparty window after installing and uncheck parties if the old format is showing up.
In-Game Tweaks
1. Also, on the subject of user interface performance, if you start experiencing slight load lag/stuttering after being an in area for extended periods of time, typing /reloadUI in game will drastically help performance. I tend to execute that command at the beginning of each scenerio, it helps.
2. ***OPTIONAL***
If you have problems specifically for RvR, try "/script TextLogSetEnabled("Combat", false)".

Sorry to break it to you dude but this is not casual lol 5-10 Hours on a weekend? God get a life man, take out your wife before someone else does it for you.
