Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Client is running slow ? Please contribute to this survey
« on: June 01, 2003, 10:17:47 pm »
many people are reporting, that the client is running unplayable slow on their systems ...

as far as i can see, many of them have Intel systems and a graphiccard with about 32 mb ...

Please do the following:

add the line

System.PlugIns.iBugPlug = crystalspace.utilities.bugplug

to your psclient.cfg to get the FPS counter.
start the client an write down your average fps


please post your system information into this thread:

processor brand:
processor speed:
amount of main memory:
graphiccard brand:
graphiccard chip:
amount of memory on graphiccard:
operating system:
average fps:


example:
---------------------

processor brand: Intel Celeron
processor speed: 1 GHz
amount of main memory: 256 Mb
graphiccard brand: Guillemot
graphiccard chip: NVidia GeForce 2 MX
amount of memory on graphiccard: 32 Mb
operating system: Windows XP
average fps: 0.6 fps


Thank You ...

ok ... thx for the fps hint ...

i\'ve tested the client both in software and opengl mode at 640x480, 16 bit

result:

  OpenGL                     ==>  between 0.2 and 7 fps
  Software Renderer    ==> about 5 fps

this is weird ...

the OpenGL rendering should be much faster ...
there seems to be some problem between client and display drivers ...

trying further ...

hmmm ... is there an internal fps counter ?

is your movement limited by the lag ? (looking around, ...)

2.) select \"run\" from the menu and click it
3.) enter \"cmd\" and press enter
4.) into the \"black window\" *g* that pops up enter this

           \"ping planeshift.fragnetics.com\"

Ping-Statistik f?r 203.81.47.27:
    Pakete: Gesendet = 4, Empfangen = 4, Verloren = 0 (0% Verlust),
Ca. Zeitangaben in Millisek.:
    Minimum = 411ms, Maximum = 415ms, Mittelwert = 414ms


look at the value after \"Mittelwert\" or \"Mean\"?

in my case it\'s \"414ms\" as you can see ...


5.) please post this value into this thread ... and tell us how slow the games runs for you (estimated fps)

6.) let\'s compare ;-)
