I'm using the newest version of vm player. I've got each vm 2 cores, 2 gb ram. Settings to the lowest, disabled sound, and used poe smoother to limit particles. and limiting fps to 20

I could care less about the fps, but what happens is my vm's stutter and it goes from 6 to 9 to 20 then back to 6 again, and when it happens, my eb doesn't do anything, its as if he calculating very very slow, and the chicken doesn't go off (when chicken goes off, theres a pause to load up the menu, then when it presses the log out, he pauses again) 25% of the time i die.

I've tried giving my bot 3 cores (running at 4.5ghz each) 4 gbs of ram. Thats about it really. My boys ran very smooth when i was rocking sandboxie's, but in a vm they got that stutter problem
 
I had the exact same issue, I think there is a typo in the production_config that causes this. Try change to better graphics in the in-game options, then make the changes to the production_config again, that worked for me. I spent countless hours thinking the low FPS (i had 1-6fps) was due to not enough hardware etc, but it had something to do with the graphic settings.

Hey thanks man, but my problem still persists. When I play poe manually, the poe client still drops in fps. I've tried what you said, I switched everything to high, then changed it through the confige file. Here is my confige file settings.

adapter_name=VMware SVGA 3D
antialias_mode=0
borderless_windowed_fullscreen=false
fullscreen=false
post_processing=false
resolution_height=600
resolution_width=800
screen_shake=false
shadow_type=no_shadows
texture_filtering=0
texture_quality=15
vsync=false


oh and i'm using a ssd for this bot, windows basic 32bit Seems he stutters when there are a pack of monsters on screen, but smooths out when hes alone

thansk. Tried what ever i limit the client too it still drops very low when in combat.

It seems that lockstep could have been my problem. If I understand it right, it sync's both the server and computer up, so when theres alot of monsters on screen, my vm would have to go through a vpn's ip, then to ggg's, then back to mine, which would slow down my client alot, and eb would have a very low fps to work with. Which would explain why my sandboxie set up worked so well, as i ran everything off my home ip (way better ping rate) so the lockstep didn't bog me down.
I started using predictive and it still drops to 8-12 , its a steady fps, but a huge improvement in smoothness
