Slash Command
/stopinactivedisplay [0-1]
Stops rendering when the game is not the foreground application.
- 0 = Allows rendering when inactive (default)
- 1 = Stops rendering when inactive
- This command stops the rendering of all graphics when the client is not in the foreground (i.e.: switched to another program with, for example, alt-tab).
- Useful if you experience flickering of the application window you switched to because of the redrawing of the 3D world under it.
- Chat messages appear to be stored in a buffer when /stopinactivedisplay is active and will appear in the chat window when the game again has focus (i.e., in the foreground).
- Like /MaxInactiveFps, this command if often used by multi-boxers to increase performance.
Command Line Parameter
The command can be made more or less permanent by running it automatically at log-in as a Command Line Parameter. For multi-boxers, this has the added benefit of automatically setting -stopinactivedisplay for every instance of the game that you run. For example, -stopinactivedisplay 1.
Example
/stopincativedisplay 1
