Lag and Technical Issues
Q: I'm experiencing a lot of lag on the Titanic. Why is this happening?
A: The Titanic is built on a full region with 30,000 prims, which may cause lag due to the high level of detail and number of objects. Your computer's hardware, graphics settings, and internet connection can also contribute to lag.
Q: My avatar is moving very slowly, and I can't seem to walk properly. How can I fix this?
A: Try pressing the "Ctrl + Alt + R" keys simultaneously to reset your avatar's animations. If this doesn't work, you may be experiencing lag due to the region's complexity or your computer's performance.

A: Lowering your draw distance and graphics settings may help improve loading times. Additionally, clear your cache and relog to refresh your Second Life viewer.

A: Some areas may have more objects, textures, or scripts, which can increase loading times. If you're experiencing significant loading delays, try adjusting your graphics settings or reducing your draw distance.
Q: I'm experiencing lag while using the in-world map or search functions. How can I resolve this?
A: Close any unnecessary background applications on your computer and ensure your Second Life viewer is up-to-date. If the issue persists, try lowering your graphics settings.

Q: How can I reduce the impact of the Titanic's 30,000 prims on my computer's performance?

NPCs & Quests
Q: I can't seem to initiate a conversation with an NPC. What should I do?
