Discussion topic for post: http://www.starsonata.com/blog/jeys-update-8-6-2014/

now about armada charges..... and other drones with similar problems. i personally am glad we got less lagg from that danmed deathblossom. however more important things are problematic at this moment. unless a fix has been made in this patch coming up which would be nice to know "PATCH NOTES!" thank you

the drones is a small thing and is on my list for today alongside a bunch of other polishing details for the patch.

I merely done the optimisation because i needed to something i like after spending so much time tracking that stupidly annoying skin bug !

And it just so happen that there are very few things in life that make me smile more than optimizing code for a machine I can access! XD.

I know that feeling. Also how did the last quickfix session go? I didn't see you give an update on what you fixed.

That looks awesome laggy or not

this type of lag work on high RoF/burst damage time drones. . . like armada inferno on very high RoF it causes lag.. . and chidz too. . . also armada ambush drone. . . and other else. can those things get the same fix?

well, the optimisation here are pretty generic, they will affect a lot more than just deathblossom.

Anything with glowmap / bright pass being added on screen will be faster and anything causing quick object destruction (high rof mean high death rate as well) will also see an improvement.

None of the code i optimised here is deathblossom only, deathblossom was just a very easy way for me to reach an extreme/critical stage on my main test machine so that i could properly profile and fix it.

neato~~~


ty ty ~~~ finally armada inferno maybe will not cause crashes due to lots of projectile and high rof. .. it always happen on your maus DG xD

it does have a mesmerizing feeling when you stare at it for too long ! XD

And here to make it worse muhahaha

before

after


The optimization is now in the beta client as well.

man now i want some maul wepz. . . not lion mauls tho xD

jey there is something wrong now with the update that you made. . . now im getting a bad lag and server is disconnecting me. . . its not my internet problem it seems server sided

nvm it seems to be gone
