    Today I accidentally hit the key combination Ctrl + T and i got a very useful Ranging window, which shows success rate other useful things. I cannot find anything about it in the news and updates, or even in the list of shortcut keys, or the encyclopedia.

    When i searched for it, i found some topic in the Programming section of the forum.

     

    I think it's a shame that these features are not mentioned in a place where normal players will actually look. Had i not accidentally hit ctrl+t i would not even have been aware that this feature exists. And it's kinda hard to search the forum for features you dont know to exist ;)

     

    I think the client programmers are doing a nice job, but they should have some place to 'advertise' the new features, or at least half the player base will not be aware of the feature. Shame for all the hard work, right?

    I tried the new client, but the problems are the same.

    Small maps do load, such as votd. I do have much WORSE fps there, btw.

    Larger maps just reload and reload when i touch a key. The problem is probably that the loading of the map takes so long that i grue. When i press a key it will try to reconnect and the map loads again, making me lag out again... Trapped in a circle.

     

    The normal client works just great for me tho. I get around 60 fps and maps load within a second (or 2 seconds for a really big map such as WS). It seems to be faster than before, but that might just be a feeling since the test client is so slow ;)

    It took around 2 minutes before WS map was loaded after i logged in. I grued because of that i think (processor at 98% usage). Pressed F1 to go to console mode and it was loading the map again, instead of showing the console and i grued again after 2 minutes. So basically i cannot enter console mode with F1. (I repeatedly tried to do so, with the same effect).

    When i use the console icon it works ok.

    In fact it seems to want to reload the map after every key stroke i do.

     

    I will try to update my drivers later and report back here
