I thought the problems were todo with textures so i downloaded it, worked for a while then it started again so I did a fresh install and put the more metal sounds mod on and it started again so i did another fresh install all fine. Do you have the more metal mod installed cos i think this is the problem with mine.

No, I don't have that. In my case, the low res texture pack just delays the freezes after rebooting. It does smooth my game though.

As a further try to eliminate those damn crashes, I will look into at least removing the new head models/textures and see if that solves anything. Stay tuned.

Hey!

I got an ATi 6950 @ 6750 with 2 GB VRam. I dont think its a problem with the Textures.
The freezes started last patch. 0.221 i think. With 0.223 they got a bit less.
But i have to restart on some maps very often. Mostly on some Siege-Maps.

Been using this few a while and I can say it eliminates the strange lag spikes I experienced before. The downside is that it makes chainmail (particularly druzhina armors and the armors which are nearly ALL chainmail like mail shirt and mail hauberk) look a little blurry at medium to far distances. No noticable differences to other armors though.
Maybe you are not bad, but you are a boring person. Well, that's the end of the matter.

Will it change the looks of everything?

The mipmaps (texture LODS) haven't been created for the textures, that's why they look detailed. Also, that's why the textures lack any aliasing at a distance and look really glitchy.

Someone should make some mipmaps for them, then they would look much better and be even faster than these.

Bump!

How did you do it? struggling here but going the gimp route now..

ok now finally batch converting dds to dds with nconvert for DOS... will test when its done.

ok works! upload a bit later..

ok here is the relatively untested 25% texture pack. It's extremely brutal, so every texture in the texture folder is now 25% of its height and width, even the loading screens :)

Only tested it in DX7 and with few players on, but it seemed to me fps and gameplay was faster and smoother than normal!
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/486399/Textures.rar

Just replace all the files in the texture folder.

it's not enough brutal, you forgot about Native\textures folder. There are about 60% of all textures for weapons\armors\buildings etc...
