Is the beta test public?

can spar rating and HP not cover up player text? for example if i type hi and get hit, the other player will just see my current HP. would be nice if HP/Spar rating moved up when a player has text over their heads. :>

SlikRick · #**574** 10-02-2010, 07:59 PM

Is there anything that could be done about the lag that is produced by the client? On the old client I would hit small lag patches here and there because of my internet connection, but now that I installed v6 it is an almost constant thing.

Also can something be done about the new scripted RC client? When you go to move the RC window it streaks all across the screen until it is released. It is not a huge deal but does get annoying.

I already reported this problem on the main screen, but it's only happening on Windows XP and below. I'm not sure if he plans to fix this or not.

MrOmega · #**576** 10-02-2010, 10:36 PM

Need these files added to Login. (Also tried Login2)

NPC Code:



File download: loginserver_en.po not found

File download: verdanabd.ttf not found

File download: microsoft sans serif.ttf not found

File download: tahomabd.ttf not found

File download: login_icon_developer34.png not found

File download: login_icon_developer102.png not found

as for the last two, not really to sure, All my server icons are there, but I do have one question, how can we change our server's icon?

ffcmike · #**577** 10-03-2010, 12:04 AM

Using Windows Vista the first thing I noticed was that dragging a window causes a replicate display:

Second thing I noticed was a slight border display error with what is a guistyle/.wba which wasn't occurring with V5:

I'm not really able to test further very easily as it runs at an extremely slow speed, my best guess would be that this is the result of not currently having the bitmap fonts option as script times were not excessive, better than on V5 infact:

Checking CPU usage within task manager seemed good too, although opening task manager prevented me from being able to re-open the client having minimized it.

This isn't a glitch. It doesn't happen in newer versions (why the **** are you using Vista anyway?) of Windows so Stefan said he wasn't going to take the time to fix it.

I never actually described it as a glitch did I?
Also I mentioned it as it isn't consistent with what Tig said:

Tig is probably wrong. Upgrade to Windows 7 and your problems will be magically solved.

My report:
-It runs very very smoothly with a high frame rate, however, there is lag on top of it all.

Super Lag
-The Playerlist is very buggy. Sometimes if I click one person, another person pops up.
-All the font is the same :/
-I noticed in UN that the pixels of the tiles are flickering in places.
-There are several places where the font is all sprawled on top of each other.
-Glitch: Lots of times when I chat, it pops up saying "non existent sword image"
-Setbody and setbody colors don't seem to be functioning well; I must say it several times before it pops up.
-GMaps are lagging badly... Or at least for me.
-In a NPC:
this.chat = "words"; no longer displays infinitely. It disappears after 3 seconds!

-My sound is working! It doesn't work on v5 and I couldn't do anything about it!

By the way, I'm running Windows 7 with a very new computer.
~I'll edit this and add more as I find more~

Will the fonts be fixed in a later version or do I need to go through my server and fix them?

ALSO

The Client seems to freeze if I ever warp a player back to Login using ServerWarp();

If I remember right, the fonts weren't working like they were supposed too to begin with, and v6 is fixing that.

They are considered "fixed" now, because they now look the same on both the D3D and the OpenGL renderer.

1) Internal PM window option doesn't work.

2) When opening PM's, please center them to the screen, don't spawn them on the mouse. It's very annoying, since I usually open all my PM's at once, then click close as I find they don't apply to anything I care about.

3) Attach the playerlist window to the game window, in the sense that when the game window is in focus, the playerlist is also in focus, and there's only one taskbar icon for them, just like how the external playerlist was in V5.

Please address these, they're my biggest complaints, and the last one pisses me off to no end.

Luda · #**591** 10-03-2010, 01:44 AM

I love how I can play the game smoothly now but the presentation is horrible.

-I've said this for year(s), the default blue gui is really, really ugly. Yes, I know you can add a custom one but the default is nasty

-Buddy list doesn't load on login like V5 had, it just loads when you join a server.

-"servertime" on the client taskbar at the bottom right says "servertim"

-On V5, when you opened a PM/GM/Mass bubble it would always open in the same location, now it opens in random locations which can get pretty annoying.

-PM/GM/Mass boxes and playerlist, ingame forums (UN) all open as new windows on your taskbar which is also annoying and makes everything look cluttered (may just me being picky, but I'm sure other people agree with me so an option to enable/disable would be nice)

I'll add more things to my list if I find anything else.

spydrct02 · #**594** 10-03-2010, 03:41 AM

I just tested v6, it's jumpy and laggy for me; I noticed it within 10 seconds of first trying it, if that says anything. Here's my experiences:

- CPU usage goes up a bit while holding any key (movement, slash, grab, any key), seems like double CPU usage? Number of keys held doesn't matter as long as it's at least 1...

- The whole client (not just my player) "skips" every second, seems like short CPU usage bursts because of unstable Graal.exe CPU usage in task manager. Didn't this happen in the opengl version of v5?

I'm on Windows XP and Intel speedstep was disabled to keep same CPU speed/clock

**
For fun I set my CPU speed to its minimum of 997mhz and compared v5 and v6 movement speeds and musical instrument playing on Era. V6 beta was slow movement and instruments unplayable, frame rate was 14ish. V5 was fine and frame rate was at the max 20. Both were in the same private level with nothing going on... eek.

MrOmega · #**595** 10-03-2010, 05:12 AM

Ok, the biggest bug bothering me is the fact that the client sometimes freeze when I log onto another server, happens when I use serverwarp/warping via F8.

SlikRick · #**597** 10-03-2010, 09:37 AM

Ok I already stated this but I have to state it again since I have logged onto another server besides N-Pulse. On N-Pulse the lag was bad, but when I logged onto UN it got un-bearable. When I was on v5 I could navigate over any server without severe lag problems, but now that I am running v6 it is all I get. The new client uses up way more CPU usage then any other Graal Client to date. This is a HUGE downside to the new client and should be the highest priority to fix.

Let's start a community project to create a new one, then? Because, you know, if they hire somebody, maybe we'd get something ****ty like the website.

Edit: On a different note, the performance is pretty good for me. Seems a lot better than v5. Players having problems with v6 should post all related system information. Only thing that pisses me off is the whole create-window-at-mouse-courser thing.

SlikRick · #**599** 10-03-2010, 11:24 AM

I run Windows XP Pro. It is not fair to the long standing Graal players to force them to upgrade to Windows Vista+ because of the fact not all of us cannot afford to upgrade our operating system, let alone computers. At the least v6 should be configured to run XP at the least because lets face it, Vista was poorly developed and is a bigger problem then its worth and 7 is too expensive for some people to afford.

Soala · #**600** 10-03-2010, 12:15 PM

This may not be a bug, but I found out that emitters are not acting the same on V6 than in V5. For example, I've made myself turn into a fireball on Ruins when using boots, and when I was switching levels, the fireball was getting smaller and smaller, with shorter effects and particles.
In V6, it seems to act completely the opposite way, which means on a gmap, as I run through levels, the fireball keeps getting bigger and bigger.
Also, right after I switch levels, particles are "lagging", which means the little flames that are supposed to come directly out of the fireball appear on my screen about a second later.
