Performances problem

[Lhibou]

With the french client compiled with DEv-C 4.9.9.2, we have performance problems with AThlon systems and ATI card.

 

When the players use your client, they don't have the problems.

 

I use the following switch/

-DWINDOWS

-DELC

-DLOAD_XML

-DOPTIONS_I18N

-DNUSE_FRAMEBUFFER

-DNEW_FRUSTUM

-DBUG_FIX_3D_OBJECTS_MIN_MAX

-DNEW_ACTOR_ANIMATION

-DPNG_SCREENSHOT

 

Must I care of something else to compile the client (thinking at processor instruction set left to the default), etc..

 

Greetings,

First of all, I don't think it's wise to compile with experimental features like NEW_FRUSTUM. I'd do a compile using:

 

-DWINDOWS

-DELC

-DLOAD_XML

-DOPTIONS_I18N

-DPNG_SCREENSHOT

 

And possibly -DNEW_ACTOR_ANIMATION, but only if it is working as intended...

Well, last I checked, not using new frustum had extra re-culling problems which had been introduced, which caused some huge performance losses anyway.

What optimisation are being used, if any? debug flags? target flags?

All the options in the compiler tab of project options are no

 

options -W and -fexceptions

Retiring new_actor_animation solved the problem for some users but not all

 

Retiring more (new_frustrum, bug_fix...) did'nt made a lot of difference for the players (some have 30 fps in place of 60 fps, other's don't see anything about it)
