This release should fix some crashes on medium quality.

Also, if you have a non english keyboard, please rename the EL main directory to somethign with a foreign character in it, then edit the data pata in the configuration xml, and make sure it works (this is to test the unicode support). Then after the tests remember to rename it back, of course.

I get an instant crash on all qualities.

Nothing in error and warn logs.

Hmm the crash seems to be random, one time it crashes, other time no ...

 

 

Low quality:

F1: day (85 FPS), night (36 FPS)

F2: 234 FPS

F3: day (265 FPS), night (216 FPS)

 

Errors:

Can`t use reflections, because at least medium material quality is needed.
Can`t use shadows, because at least medium material quality is needed.
File 'terrain/map.dds' is invalid. A valid DDS file must not set DDPF_LUMINANCE as pixel format flags.
File 'terrain/map.dds' is invalid. DDS files without mipmaps Can`t have a mipmap count greater than zero
Too many lights for object 2168.
...
Too many lights for object 2206.

 

Medium quality:

F1: day (18 FPS), night (18 FPS)

F2: 168 FPS

F3: day (57 FPS), night (54 FPS)

 

High quality

F1: day (20 FPS), night (20 FPS)

F2: 157 FPS

F3: day (56 FPS), night (53 FPS)

So how often does it crash?

 

it crashes 7/10 times

[Entropy]

Does it crash before or after trying to load a map (F1-F3)?

[Chefge]

crashes here too sometimes, right after starting the client.

works fine at first, then tried unicode support which was not working at all, then renamed back, then got like 20 crashes till when i was turning on Win2k compatibility mode for that .exe......... first thought random, but its reproducable here it seems. tried 2 times only, third time just changing the config, not actually changing the directory name - no probs after editing back.

Right after start.
