This is urgent
« on: October 30, 2003, 11:19:02 pm »
Serius lagging is a big problem, that very often occur. Its not only I, that have problems with lagging. Sometimes all the players cant move for several minutes. Hope that you will try to fix this bug a quick as possible, cuz its makin me and others pissed... Please dont wait doing this until the release of Crystal Blue, two months is to long time to wait... Fix it now...

My spec:
1,4 ghz Athlon
512 mb SDram
geForce 2 mx-400 w 64 mb ram
About 60 gb\'s of storagespace avalible
(Internetconnection at 256kbit DSL.)

Dont think, that its my specs that is the problem...

Well, you have to look at it a couple of ways.   If there was a magical solution to fix this we would have done it by now.   It\'s not like we try to make is slow on purpose.  Second, the engine is developed by a different team ( crystal space ) so we cannot control them.  They are re-writing their rendering engine and we hope to put it through it\'s paces.  Third, we don\'t *have* to do anything.  This is one of the great things about this project is that anybody can commit patches and fixes.   We will glady accept any constructive advice on how to improve things.    

I think most people understand that this is a game in development and not a complete package with all the bells and whistles.

Well said acraig. I was about to make a \'gritted teeth\' reply myself, but you beat me to it (only saw your post in the \'post reply\' page). ;)

If this were a game you were paying for, I\'d back you all the way. But considering this is a free project that you contribute diddly-squat to, and that the developers devote their free time creating, I don\'t think you\'re in any position to be making demands.

I have almost the same specs, cept worse in a way. Im using a 2.0 ghz Celeron
256 DDR ram
same gfx card
same connection

yes their is some lag, but the lag that i encounter is not serverlag it is my computer itself littlethings in a game like this (in its current state) can make a huge difference. Just try by changeing resolutions to a smaller one and if you have a huge chat box make is smaller (this helps me by 10-15 fps if i make it so its so small i cant see nething) i hope this helps you in some way
