Memory issue?

While I was playing, a window popped up in the game that said... Warning, Your memory usage it an unhealthy level. What do I have to do about that? My computer still has 220 gb free.

Just close it out. I personally haven't seen that pop up in a couple years probably, but whenever I did, I just closed it out. I'm pretty sure there was a thread about that a while ago, too. But it's probably archived by now.

It's referring to your RAM, not your harddrive. It basically is just warning you that you may or may not crash soon.

Run a memory cleaner utility while you play ROM. It doesn't stop all mem leaks but it helps
-- Rustyx --- 92R / 92S / 92M on Reni (Guild KnightShift). Yes, running the new FOTM R/M, cause I am not elf enough to be WD/S.

Oh, and people who have more than 3 classes are clinically insane.

It's not that it's terrible or not. It's that RoM has a memory leak, so, by doing what rusty said to do, you will crash less often.

You might like to try installing the Memory Warning Muzzle addon. I've been using it myself without issue. http://rom.curseforge.com/addons/memory-warning-muzzle/

Idunno I have 16 GB of RAM and I still got the popup without that addon. It's basically just RoM telling you that it sucks. It has nothing to do with you or anything you or your computer is doing wrong.

This message appears for some not all players. Some times often sometimes not.

Depended not only on ram but on the amount of ping you are experiencing at a given moment it may appear.

This does not mean that your system is failing or that your system requires an upgrade.

Of course most systems even older systems can run Runes of Magic.

Some players have top notch systems with many Gigs of ram and still experience this issue.

This add on does help quit a bit.
