phrank Report post Posted July 8, 2008 Hi the client keeps crashing at odd times no pattern that I can tell . Sometimes when harving sometimes when fighting sometimes just walking.

Cruella Report post Posted July 8, 2008 All is good as long as camera angle allows to see just a ground - as soon as sky becomes visible, fps drops from 40 to 1-2 for a few seconds, then settles at roughly 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FatboyJaxx Report post Posted July 8, 2008 Had some strange effects with the shadows while training in NRM, havn't noticed it anywhere else yet. I tried to get a screenshot but it happens so fast I was unable to and it seems random (I was not able to deliberately produce it). It's like the shadows all shift as if the light was coming from a different angle for a second and then shifts back. It's a pretty dramatic change but very fast.

marack Report post Posted July 8, 2008 (edited) We installed and ran this final RC on all systems in my siggy; no crashes, no immediate or major issues to report so far. Everything seems to be working well. However, my missing "mouse pointer" problem still occurs on the Toshiba Laptop, but this time I've noticed a slight difference from the previous RC. When the pointer vanishes during initializing the client it was also not visible on the login screen either...this time it does appear (stable) on the login screen. Once I login in and proceed into the game then the pointer will vanish again. Only to reappear when the mouse is moved. We'll keep a lookout and report back any other issues if we find any... Thanks for the great effort team EDIT: (SP) Edited July 8, 2008 by marack Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marack Report post Posted July 8, 2008 So far so good, but I have a question: Why did the print button in the #sto window disappear? I was verry happy with this feature. I will miss this feature very much too...please reconsider Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Llynara Report post Posted July 9, 2008 (edited) Wow, it's gorgeous! I spend so much time gazing at the sky that my elf keeps tripping over her shoelaces. Makes me fall in love with EL all over again. Looks amazing on my main computer (7600 Nvidia) and on my laptop (Intel 945GM Express integrated chipset). Will try it on my sad, ancient computer next. Great job! Llyn Edited July 9, 2008 by Llynara Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mercie Report post Posted July 9, 2008 (edited) When I start it up, it says the program is not responding for a few minutes, and the FPS is still not that good, its even worse with the minimap, which I really enjoy. Also when I use the new character animaion, the players all disapear. Edited July 9, 2008 by Mercie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Schmurk Report post Posted July 9, 2008 Hi the client keeps crashing at odd times no pattern that I can tell . Sometimes when harving sometimes when fighting sometimes just walking. Here is the contents of the error_log... Have you the same problem with other games? And what value are you using for your fps limit? If you have the same problem in other games and if you have a high or uncapped fps limit, it can be an overheating problem so you can try to reduce your fps to see if it's better. All is good as long as camera angle allows to see just a ground - as soon as sky becomes visible, fps drops from 40 to 1-2 for a few seconds, then settles at roughly 10 Have you tried to reduce your maximum viewing distance in the options? When I start it up, it says the program is not responding for a few minutes, and the FPS is still not that good, its even worse with the minimap, which I really enjoy. Also when I use the new character animaion, the players all disapear. If you enable the animation program while in game, you have to restart the client in order it takes effect and you can see the chars again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
korrode Report post Posted July 9, 2008 (edited) just one tiny problem here... with my thermal serpi noticed the pinky color goes away when beeing in outside maps oO I have noticed people's therm serp's not glowing pink also. (EDIT: me = ubuntu 8.04 / geforce 6800 latest drivers / very recent CVS ) All is good as long as camera angle allows to see just a ground - as soon as sky becomes visible, fps drops from 40 to 1-2 for a few seconds, then settles at roughly 10 Have you tried to reduce your maximum viewing distance in the options? Worth doing, i set my max viewing distance down to 75 (from the default 100)... i can still see very far, but made a significant difference for fps.

phrank Report post Posted July 9, 2008 Hi the client keeps crashing at odd times no pattern that I can tell . Sometimes when harving sometimes when fighting sometimes just walking. Here is the contents of the error_log... Have you the same problem with other games? You mean there are other games?!?! No I don't have this problem with other games. But I will do some further testing to see. And what value are you using for your fps limit?If you have the same problem in other games and if you have a high or uncapped fps limit, it can be an overheating problem so you can try to reduce your fps to see if it's better. My fps is capped at 40, but I seem to crash more when my fps are real low. In PV I'm usually around 3-4 fps with the sky view on, turning it off still has me crashing about every 5-15 minutes. It also seems to shut down more often when running mozilla concurrently. Anything else I should try? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They all strech real far in one direction, then snap back to where they should adjust to (it appears...) Also having troubles getting a screen shot of this as "it happens so fast"...

Cyprom Report post Posted July 9, 2008 (edited) I found this little error by accident... Not sure if it is because of the new client or not. The description and weight are attached to each other. No space in between. However, this only happens when I come out of console. I click to view the item, and it's normal. I go console and come back, then it's like in the pic. EDIT: I tried it with something else (just the BSf you see in the pic as well ) There it has a " - " between the 2. I noticed that the normal view puts the Weight below the description. When going in console and back, the Weight is put next to the desc. Not really a problem, but weird. Edited July 9, 2008 by Cyprom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's most likely caused by the lightning What ago said. @phrank: if your fps is very low, it's because your cpu and video card is really really busy so if you are noticing more crashes when it happens then I think it confirms what I was thinking but maybe I'm wrong. So you can try to reduce all the details to the minimum, reduce the maximum viewing distance if you're using the extended camera and reduce your fps limit to 20-30. Installing something that is able to monitor the temperature of your video card and your cpu would be interesting too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
