Slasheree Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 maybe /fpslock can help ? I dunno really, never had lag (did not quite understand the problem) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saga Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Maybe use EO (its faster than EA)But…WTF??!You have 8gb RAM and it DOESN'T work??Oo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clark Posted September 25, 2012 Author Share Posted September 25, 2012 I never said it don't work O_o i just said that it have laggy moments and the fps depends of the map : 38 to 64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sealbreaker Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 I would call everything over 30fps pretty much fluid enough… Fps only becomes annoying to me when it gets under 24.-seal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clark Posted September 25, 2012 Author Share Posted September 25, 2012 I don't really know how to explain it , it's kind of fluid but the image shakes a bit while moving the camera is shakky i don't know if you see what i mean , the important is that the game is playable but i'm scared that affect the whole game after Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyce Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 1) Drop D3D8, it's abysmal for performance in VB6 as it is a complete HACK to even get it to run.2) Drop anything Deathbeam writes, ever. While he makes things shiny his procedures are plain awful and most of it results in piss poor performance.3) Use as little resources as possible, if you don't need a sprite don't include it.4) Don't randomly add loops and endless amounts of checks in your source.I could go on, but yeah. :/ Seriously though, If you want performance you'll need to steer away from EA and write it yourself, in a clean and efficient manner. Preferably in another language with a proper graphics library. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clark Posted September 27, 2012 Author Share Posted September 27, 2012 So if i correctly understanded : i should use eclipse nightly 3.0 or EO with event system , or dragon eclipse if i want dx8 but never advanced? ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyce Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 xD Not really, the main issue is that DX8 is slow to begin with, and autotiles, a poor way to render a UI and whatnot cuts into that even further. I do believe Deathbeam was working on a faster way to render his interface though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clark Posted September 27, 2012 Author Share Posted September 27, 2012 Ohh ^^ ok hehe thanks i'll see with my players if they would like to leave a transparent interface ^^ (i hope ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
