@gargurant I’ve got the same issue with materials, we’ll be sure to have it fixed before the new renderer goes into the main client.

Personally I’ve seen a jump from ~20 FPS the middle of 233 to ~60+, even with shadows on. Animations are also a lot smoother, exciting stuff.

I get more FPS by using the new render.
Good job.

Just a FYI, this build of the renderer only has partial improvements. We’re going to keep improving on the performance of the game with each build of it.

Naturally we’ll fix the materials issues too.

Wiz I would expect the reason I am seeing smaller benefits is due to running a pretty competent processor in the first instance, so switching some calculations to the GPU is not really having much impact. Any improvement is good, however, and I would expect players with duel core processors to see much larger jumps in performance.

I have played around a lot more yesterday evening and found that the average increase is probably 10fps throughout different resolution settings.

What??? So more FPS is a good thing? I usually have a fluctuation of 30 – 60 FPS no matter where I go. However FPS tend to go haywire when swimming from one island to another and then it freezes my character permanently. I am afraid to swim now. I noticed that in starter cave when an environmental game part is moving up and down (boat with fence) the FPS goes from 30-33 FPS back and forth from 30. Sometimes I get FPS 20 around certain forest areas near water or when creatures are running around exterminating each other when I’m around doing my own thing: especially crazy trolls that someone how get inside the lumber yard in the forest.

My new renderer test data…

I took 2 characters to the same locations facing the same direction then logged one off, logged it back on using the renderer test and then logged off the other character. figured the both clients at once at the same location both characters facing the same direction would give the most accurate comparison.

Starter town:
normal client solo -> 75 FPS
normal client with renderer -> 70 FPS
renderer with normal client -> 105 FPS
renderer solo -> 175 FPS

Middle of the water (kinda funky since I could not swim with renderer but instead looked straight up for an all water display)

normal client solo -> 625 FPS
normal client with renderer -> 325 FPS
renderer with normal client -> 325 FPS
renderer solo -> 625 FPS

So very significant gains at the low end and nothing at the high end. IMO exactly what is needed (Though I was hoping to break 700 FPS :P ) Fix the bugs and it is a large step in the right direction :D

3 Days Ago: I was able to play the game and my usual frame rate of 30 – 60 has DECREASED to a fluctuation around 20 and when it hits to low around 12 the game is most likely to get laggy or crash with that graphical error: CrashDump: DT_Crash_v3.52-8-gbc63e50_1320889033_0.dmp. I’m having toruble getting past the LOADING screen at this time. Too many beta testers on this unstable server render. Based on speedtest.com my stats are:

PING: 104
Download Speed: 1.95 Mbps
Upload Speed: 0.48 Mbps
Internet Signal Strength: Very Strong

Scores Currently Range from 1.0 to 7.9. based On The Windows Experience Index: 7.9 being the best.

Processor: 7.0
Memory (RAM): 7.3
Graphics: 6.4
Gaming Graphics: 6.4

Why are some players getting arounhd 100 FPS and I’m stuck around 30-60 struggling and dropping??? My Toshiba is way above average for such games.
