Title: Performance hit after last patch?
Post by: Thomek on September 26, 2011, 03:55:13 pm
Been experiencing a slight fps decrease after last patch, am I the only one?

Was playing with the c64 mod before, but dunno if it works anymore.

Anyone working on smth?

I guess the many new items don't have lods?

Similar stuff here by the way, when I played.

Nope, no noticable performance drop. But my fps is usually at it's cap, so perhaps my machine isn't a good comparison.

I am noticing significantly more crashes, about one or three a day now instead of one every few weeks. Things seem normal besides that though.

I'm getting regular disconnects, but i suspect it's unrelated to the patche(s) as my girlfriend is experiencing lagspikes in APB at the same time my cRPG disconnects.

I'm crashing bad lately...and glitching a lot.  Don't know if its the servers (I play mostly siege) or the patch but its all F'ed up for me. :(

Haven't noticed anything different, stability wise. The occasional alt-tab crash, like always. I did have to redownload cRPG cause I had one of the versions without the hotfix, plus I was still using 1.142. But after that, nope.

I do alt tab a lot, maybe that is why I am noticing the increase in crashes...

This is partly why I don't like hanging out in IRC due to having to alt tab constantly and risk it.

I've noticed lower fps in larger battles.  Tends to be fine in duel and other sparsely populated servers, but with 80-100+ people in fights I've been noticing some rough patches which have been quite annoying.

How is this game playable without alt tabbing? :(

Steam overlay.  Even if you didnt buy it on steam you can add it as a non-steam game and use the overlay.


I've also noticed a FPS drop in larger battles and anytime that dirty stone texture is used.

While on this note. Is there something that fixes that freezes I get constantly? Some are like 5 seconds long and I rarely survive those. I also get them whenever I join a server and spawn, a really long freeze.

uncheck 'load textures on demand' and/or get a better hard drive~.  post in bug forums

Windowed Mode = no crashing from alt-tab.

I never crash from alt-tab. Without alt-tab this game would be hell.

Hm. I have noticed a framerate drop recently, but I'm not sure if that's the patch, or just because the official NA servers are filled up with 100+ players pretty regularly now.

I've got 4gb RAM, 1gb VRAM, and 2.27gHz CPU, so I feel like I shouldn't be getting a framerate hit, but when servers are filled up I'm running at around 30-40 fps. It's not unplayable, but it's just so much better at 120 fps.
