Bugs prior to release 2.3 / Engine Slow and Crash with multisampling
« on: July 15, 2010, 09:02:48 am »
I have posted this at the windows issue section but was informed by Mattn to move it here:

The game lags terribly on my system. I get about 5 fps on the city maps and when I zoom in I get about 20fps. Most maps between 10-25fps.

 I have a...

Pentium Core Duo 2.9
2Gb RAM
HD4890 Sapphire
Windows 7
latest drivers reinstalled after a total drive cleanup

Also, when I enable multisample buffering the game crashes when I enter the tactical screen. It seems when I disable GLSL shaders the game runs smoothly. I am told this is a ATI and OpenGL problem. ATI cards don't like OpenGL that much...

Windows / Game lag - engine or windows 7?

Hi

I posted this yesterday, moved it and somehow it got lost. Anyway, my problem in a nutshell:

The game lags terribly on my system. I get about 5 fps on the city maps and when I zoom in I get about 20fps. Most maps between 10-25fps.

 I have a...

Pentium Core Duo 2.9
2Gb RAM
HD4890 Sapphire
Windows 7
latest drivers reinstalled after a total drive cleanup

Could it be windows 7, directx10? Or something else. Is it a bug?  ???

Also, when I enable multisample buffering the game crashes when I enter the tactical screen (it seems this is already covered in the bug tracking section, but just wondering).

Thanks!

And by the way, as I mentioned yesterday. TERRIFIC WORK!!! You people don't seem to have a life.  ;D I've been tracking the game's progress since last year and EVERY month had a mass of changes and enhancements.

Coding / Help: Tactical Save
« on: May 14, 2009, 12:02:05 pm »
Yes, yes, I know there is some rule about this and I was warned not to ask or push it,  but I just need to know something...

I am no coder. Is there ANY way or place I can implement this for MYSELF. Maybe a frustrated coding genius has done it for his own game but not made the changes available? It would be nice to have the option ;)

Thanks!

Feature Requests / Small suggetsions
« on: May 14, 2009, 09:11:05 am »
Hi

I have just recently downloaded the game and find it (even in it's unfinished state) terrific! There are only a few little annoying things that I hope has been, will be, or could be fixed:

1) I know the tactical map saves are not part of the so called "scary feel" of the game but personally I think it has nothing to do with creating atmosphere rather than frustration. Let me explain it this way. I get the same feeling I get when I play fixed save point games (usually consoles) like Prince of Persia. First I get annoyed  then bored and then I move on and play something else. It's not keeping me on the edge of my seat, its taking the 'fun' factor away   :(

Is their a way to activate it? Maybe someone has made a mod for implementing it?


2) That fixed cursor (the little target marker or starry thing), can I change it to something a bit more... pointy? It feels like I'm suppose to shoot everything. A normal kind of windows arrow or something generic would be nice :)

3) (Edit) Oh yes, and another thing. I have to switch my hand between my mouse and keyboard quite a few times. The tactical view roll and tilt should be fixed to the middle-mouse button... if it is possible. In that way I can use my left hand for shortcuts and my right hand to change views (middle-wheel scroll for level changes) and plot courses for my units!

Well, those are my only complaints... nothing major.

I have quite a bit of 3D and 2D artistic experience so I will scan the To-do lists and see where I can give a hand  ;).

Thanks for reading!
