Title: Problem in Client for Windows
Post by: Shadowdancer on June 05, 2003, 11:29:26 pm

Hi guys,

I\'m having problems when I try use client for Windows. My station:

- Pentium III 833MHz, 128MB de RAM
- TNT2 nVidea 16MB
- Windows 98
- OpenGL Rendering

When I start the client, I can create a character, but when I try load world, software connects and try load world definion until fill all machine\'s resources...

My machine is too slow to run client?

Please, help me!!! lol

Best regards,
Alexandre

Yo Shadowdancer --  I think you should post this under the::
     \"Client is running slow ? Please contribute to this
      survey\"
thread. Either that or start a new thread, or rename this one with the title \"Memory Leak?\" lol.

I\'m having the same problem. I think they\'re probably related.

1ghz Intel P3
nVidia 32mb GeForce 2
blah blah..
Win ME
2 gigs of HD devoted to virtual paging.

Ooook.... I logged in once sucessfully, got into the world, had like.. > 1 FPS. Took maybe 20 minutes..

I closed the game through the exit/quit methods, and my system was still incredibly lagged... tried to open my dos shell, and got a \"System resources low\" or whatever. I\'m guessing theres a memory leak in there somewhere, and on top of that; for some reason it\'s loading one heck of a lot of data when you first enter the world.

My system runs descent 3, and Mechwarrior 4 better, even when they have the graphics maxed.

*shrugs* Everything is pure speculation on my part, but I\'d guess it\'s just loading way too many textures.
