Download files somewhere in this thread (last alpha is usually best

)

And post results here, note:

Processor
Amount of memory
Graphics card
Operating system
Frame rate (is visible in the console behind the main window)
Any problems?

You are aware that the attachment size limit is 4MB, right? You don't have to split the rar into two volumes.

And, in a completely unrelated matter, the TTDPatch terrain generator no longer obeys the LandGen cheat. Please update either the code or the documentation so they agree.

So it was upped from 2MB that was there for years? Good.

As for a landgen - No - I'm not aware. Besides - this is not the place to discuss it (and why isn't it mentioned in the alpha discussion thread or somesuch?)

d3dx9_31.dll was not found!
After I pieced the archives back together and tried to do something to them with 7zip.

It is. But evidence that you read the Problems with TTDPatch forum is remarkably hard to find.

Jonty: That DLL's not in the archive. WinRAR says so, and I would hope it knows what its talking about. Google is your friend, however.

uzurpator wrote:Please note both numbers - average frame time

I would, but the words "average frame time", or anything like them, are doing a remarkably good job of hiding.

Avg fps runs from ~15 to ~25, Last fps runs from ~0.1 to ~32.

I sent you a PM uzurpator, but here we go again.

This is my Office workstation, no so big GPU.

TE Alpha One.
Last FPS: 23.5231
AVG FPS: 24.8521
CPU Intel P4 3.00GHZ
GPU Intel 82945G Express Chipset
OS WinXP SP2 (up-to-date)
RAM 1 GB
Since this is my Office workstation, these
are "normal" operational figures.
CU Usage 21%
PF Usage 865 mb
Threads 608
Processes 51

TE Alpha Two.
Last FPS: 25.5971
AVG FPS: 27.8527
CPU Intel P4 3.00GHZ
GPU Intel 82945G Express Chipset
OS WinXP SP2 (up-to-date)
RAM 1 GB
Since this is my Office workstation, these
are "normal" operational figures.
CU Usage 9%
PF Usage 742 mb
Threads 594
Processes 46

Not Much difference between the two, but then, this is an integrated GPU.

I do. But there is no _topic_ on that. Since you found the bug, you report it. And not to me really since it was not _me_ who introduced the cheat in the first place. Neither I made any promises for it. Frankly up to not so long ago I didn't even know it existed.

What works - for all climates, so I add, is generation through difficulty settings (water low/medium/high - terrain height: flat/mountainous).

You are right - avg frame time is not listed. Will be in the next rev.

CmdKevin - the max FPS for now is 32. That is why the frame time is more/less important. If the numbers below in the >##>##>##>## etc format hover around 0 then there is an improvement. See 3 fold drop in CPU usage between two alphas

Jonty - that file is from DirectX9 - shouldn't be in the archieve. Nonetheless I'll try to include it anyways

(or finally add OpenGL support)

YOu can alt-tab and move windows around

the rendering window must be active to get proper results tho.

m3henry · Post by **m3henry** » 22 Apr 2007 12:56

frame rate. 32.1 for average and current

TE-Egnine.exe

both framerates are 32
frame time is 1 if Opera is not minimized and 0 when it is minimized

no_frame_limit.bat

Both framerates are from 700 to 740
Frame time is 1.3 to 1.6

no_frame_limit.bat with Image quality set to "High quality", Antialiasing set to 8x and Anisotropic filtering set to 16x (you can set this stuff trough Nvidia control panel(dunno bout Ati cards) and it aplies to almost every 3d aplication there is it even works on Carmageddon 2

)

Both framerates are from 260 to 290
Frame time is 3 to 3.5

My CPU is not multithreaded so i won't run the mt.bat

Stats:

AMD Sempron 2000 2ghz CPU
1GB Ram DDR400

it works
but
if I move the terrain to the extreme the game is ended in an "unusual way"

also I notice that there is a limit to the number of tiles that can be loaded at any one time
so if i do a figure of eight pattern zoomed way out I can see wierd patterns as the game de-loads tiles

same machine as before

FPS Avg - 31.8
Processor - Intel Celeron 2.8 Ghz
Memory - 256 Mb
Graphics - onboard Intel 82865G with shared 96 Mb

Anything else i can test ?

Edit: After No frame limit and some window resising ( to 800x600 ) and active moving over map - 42 fps

uzurpator · Post by **uzurpator** » 05 Sep 2007 16:56

Latest alpha - 4.

I am not really happy with it, performace is low, but it is stable and works well on quad core systems.

Steve · Post by **Steve** » 05 Sep 2007 19:26

Have you plans on how to improve it?///

uzurpator · Post by **uzurpator** » 05 Sep 2007 20:10

No - I spent last 6 months to release unfinished product

Of course I do!

ganzpopp · Post by **ganzpopp** » 07 Sep 2007 01:53

Works fine here!

FPS Avg - 34.x
Processor - Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.8Ghz
Memory - 3.0 GB
Graphics - Dual ATI X1300 (SLI?) 256MB
CPU usage: 100%

Performance seems low, but I was running a fluid simulation at the same time which takes up almost all resources. So probably things will improve when only running the game.

EDIT:
OK, now without running simulations:

FPS Avg: 645.xx
CPU usage: 56%

Apparently the high frame rates are achieved since not the whole area is immediately visible. Only after scrolling and dragging more is visible. Maybe an error?

If I make sure the whole map is visible (or most of it), the average frame drop decreases to 77.xx when the window is maximized (1680x1050).
