Are beta13 dialogs faster?

#1 Post by darkgod »

To people that had sluggish inventories in beta12, is it better now ?

Much, much faster. At least an order of magnitude. Thank you.

Saving is still slooooow. Seems to happen more often now too (on screen resizes for instance). Any chance of an option to turn autosave off? It obviously has its uses for a beta, but I personally find TOME4 to be very very stable so could happily live without.

The shops are *MUCH* faster, however this version seems to be taking longer on saves.

Yay :)

As for saves, switching zones now forces a full autosave instead of just the zone save, people requested it!
I'm changing a few things to make playing while saving run more smoothly though

Could you add an option to enable and disable autosave? It makes TOME unplayable on my computer. :(

I also getting some slow issues using LEFT and RIGHT key on stats and skills points.

The inventory dialogs are faster than before for me, though they still lag somewhat. I have to agree that the autosave and restart on resizing is annoying though.

Update:
They were faster till I took someone to Bree. (been trying skellies until yesterday) As soon as I got into bree everything, movement et al, but especially dialogs slowed to a crawl. Much worse than b12, sometimes caused the window to show not responding for up to 20-30 seconds at a time when entering shops.

edit: may have been autosaving, but I don't think so. I usually notice the <saving> message. It hasn't happened since though, maybe it was some item I was carrying?

All the dialogs are drastically faster for me. Every menu, pop up, even the information log in game is a faster updated machine. The only times there is any lag now is if I try to go to a shop while saving, playing for a very long time and try to open a menu (like 3 hours of play time), or when there is a lot of floaties/npcs on screen (and I mean a LOT).

Thanks for the drastic improvement DG.
