Title: Performance Issues
Post by: Mizzles on May 28, 2011, 06:05:08 am: Hey, not really sure if this goes into the bug section or not. But my problem is this. Since the patch before last I haven't been able to play because of freezes stutters and framerate issues, before this patch I was perfectly fine having none of these issues with every setting maxed. I've tried several things including a full computer format and OS reinstall, and I am getting the same framerate and freezes with the settings maxed as with them all set to low. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

1: Delete your cRPG folder and reinstall the mod. Do NOT overwrite. This is a known issue.
2: Download the low res texture pack - http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,5335.0.html (http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,5335.0.html)

Post by: Kabookie on May 30, 2011, 06:39:22 am: I was having similar troubles because I had overwritten files.
Was reluctant to do it but... deleting the cRPG folder and putting in the new version folder seems to have helped a lot.
Downloaded the full file for the newest cRPG version and placed it in modules. Then I just overwrote the files for the newest banner pack.
Frame freezing lag has let up a lot now!

3. download the LOD-version of the items http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,6967.msg108405.html
4. disable the new faces in the module.ini
5. (brand new, should fix crashes with DX9, but is a lot of work:) convert ALL .ogg sounds from the module folder to .wav, and then edit the sounds.txt file with the appropiate new filename.

This should, as far as we know, fix all frame/crash related bugs. We will take care of most of this in the new patch, but that might still take some time.

Could you explain #4 to a simple peasant such as myself? I disabled all the lines referencing faces and got an error upon start saying it couldn't load blonde hair. :(
